Title: 2012 Dolphins hats/caps Post by: bsfins on September 17, 2012, 05:13:31 pm Dave is the only other person I've heard of other than me,that buy's a new Dolphins cap/hat each year....
Curious anyone seen any nice ones? I've only found 2 that I sort of like,don't love either.... Orange and gray (http://www.amazon.com/New-Era-Dolphins-Tri-Band-39THIRTY/dp/B0091KVLWQ/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_S_nC?ie=UTF8&colid=1FGXOG88RI054&coliid=I3W02G9LVQXEK6) <<-Amazon link Grey and Orange melttop (http://www.sportsauthority.com/product/index.jsp?productId=13041573&clickid=body_rv_txt) <--Link Sportsauthority I like this one the best...

Title: Re: 2012 Dolphins hats/caps Post by: Fins4ever on September 17, 2012, 05:52:26 pm i usually buy a new one each year too but I haven't seen anything decent this year honestly. Nothing I like Agree. I have a hard cased Samsonite full sized suitcase I keep all my hats in (holds about 70) and have some really sweet Fin caps. None of the new ones are better than what I have. Also, I only wear them for the game. Then, right back to the case. I have some jerseys (signed) I have never wore. The hat on my Labrador in the avatar, Dan, yes after Marino, is one of my all time favorites. I have only lost one in all my years of collecting and that was after the Fins gave up a huge lead and lost to the jests on MNF. I took my hat and jersey and threw them in the fireplace. Just a note. I have seen a disturbing trend where companies are making merchandise. in off team colors. I ain't buying! Do you really want a red Fin hat??? Give me orange, aqua and white or give me death. lol Title: Re: 2012 Dolphins hats/caps Post by: el diablo on September 17, 2012, 09:58:45 pm I can't justify paying over $15 for a hat.
Title: Re: 2012 Dolphins hats/caps Post by: Fins4ever on September 18, 2012, 09:45:04 am The 40th anniversary hat they gave away at the Raider game are already all over E-Bay and it looks like they will go for 30 dollars or more.
Title: Re: 2012 Dolphins hats/caps Post by: Dave Gray on September 18, 2012, 12:00:15 pm I can't justify paying over $15 for a hat. Agreed. The price of these hats is ridiculously inflated. They've switched to New Era and now the hats are like $31. It's crazy. Title: Re: 2012 Dolphins hats/caps Post by: bsfins on September 18, 2012, 01:01:31 pm Agreed on the price seems high this year...
The other thing that bothers me too many "throwback" Hats....I'm not buying the same,or just slightly different hat I have sitting on my dresser I bought 15-20 years ago.In most cases at least double the price what I originally bought the hat for... ??? Glad to see there are a few of us in the "Hat a year Club"... :D Title: Re: 2012 Dolphins hats/caps Post by: Brian Fein on September 18, 2012, 02:12:39 pm "official" New Era MLB caps are $35 everywhere. Just like jerseys were $40 when everyone made them, and now are $100. Thank your exclusivity agreements.
Title: Re: 2012 Dolphins hats/caps Post by: MyGodWearsAHoodie on September 18, 2012, 05:12:33 pm Last football hat I bought was the 2003 NEP superbowl July 2005 for $2.
Wait until 2014 and you can get the 2012 version for under $5. Title: Re: 2012 Dolphins hats/caps Post by: el diablo on September 18, 2012, 05:31:05 pm I thought they gave away misprints....

You should see the Rolex I bought on Canal street (NYC) for 20 bucks. lol Title: Re: 2012 Dolphins hats/caps Post by: Brian Fein on September 20, 2012, 09:47:31 am ^^ already there. you can buy them at Chinese web sites for $8-10
Title: Re: 2012 Dolphins hats/caps Post by: AZ Fins Fan 55 on September 24, 2012, 04:17:11 pm Brian sent me a hat last year that I have worn quite a bit. While I do not normally buy a new hat every year I saw one on Saturday I really liked for $25.00 and I picked it up. The pictures kind of suck and don't do the hat any justice.

Title: Re: 2012 Dolphins hats/caps Post by: AZ Fins Fan 55 on September 24, 2012, 05:22:38 pm ^^^^Thanks Mike, I plan on it....hopefully they can come in and shock the Cards but the redbirds D is pretty damn good.

If you take some pictures and want to do a "live from the stadium recap" write up after the game next week I will use it and put it up on my blog site. Up to you! Title: Re: 2012 Dolphins hats/caps Post by: AZ Fins Fan 55 on September 24, 2012, 06:11:09 pm I may do that if I can stay sober enough!!!!! ;)
Title: Re: 2012 Dolphins hats/caps Post by: MikeO on September 24, 2012, 06:15:49 pm I may do that if I can stay sober enough!!!!! ;) LOL, you can write it anytime next week and just do it as to your best recollection...lol doesn't have to be sunday night or even on monday. Whenever you can. And if you don't want to do it no biggie. Title: Re: 2012 Dolphins hats/caps Post by: Dave Gray on September 24, 2012, 11:47:03 pm The coaches hat this year is OK, but I think the "texture" is kinda strange.
(http://images.footballfanatics.com/FFImage/thumb.aspx?i=%2FproductImages%2F_803000%2Fff_803835_xl.jpg&w=400) Here's the draft hat, which I like. There are a few color pallettes to choose from: (http://www.cheap-newera.com/images/Newjune096.jpg) (http://c-product.images.dreamsretail.com/22-23/22-23360-Y.jpg) And finally, the official sideline hat, which is fine and looks good, but is very lackluster, design-wise.
