About This Fitted
New Era’s latest drop takes us back to one of baseball’s most improbable championships with this stunning New York Mets 1969 World Series 59FIFTY fitted hat. Available now at ecapcity for just $29.99, this chrome white beauty features a clean black logo with a vibrant green under brim and that coveted 1969 World Series side patch. The colorway perfectly captures the fresh, unexpected energy of a team that transformed from loveable losers into miracle workers in one unforgettable season.
The legendary 1969 World Series was filled with moments that still give Mets fans chills today. Jerry Koosman came within six outs of a perfect game in Game 2, retiring the first 18 Baltimore Orioles batters he faced before settling for a masterful 2-1 victory. Then there’s Ron Swoboda’s impossible diving catch in Game 4, a fully-extended grab that saved the potential winning run in the 9th inning and kept the Miracle Mets’ dream alive. Perhaps most memorably, shoe polish on a baseball proved Cleon Jones was hit by a pitch in the decisive Game 5, setting up the game-tying sequence that led to Donn Clendenon’s third homer of the Series.
This fitted hat represents more than just a championship, it commemorates the moment when “Ya Gotta Believe” became more than a slogan. With sizes ranging from 6 7/8 to 8, collectors can own a piece of the upset that shocked the baseball world when the Mets defeated the heavily favored Orioles 4 games to 1. For any serious fitted enthusiast or Mets faithful, this New Era release captures the magic of a team that went from 9th place regulars to World Series champions in the most miraculous fashion imaginable.
