I have one but it’s probably 10-15 years old and rarely worn so it still looks great after all these years.
Probably got it at The Lodge or Campus Book Mart ??
Edited - it’s probably closer to 15-20 years old.

I bought one at The Lodge in 2016. They had marked down all their alternate Adidas on-field hats to $7. I got the white/maroon, cream from SBW 2014, and black.

Our classic maroon hats are iconic. Why would anyone want to change them?
Honestly, I like a black or white cap because all the shades of maroon vary so much. My maroon caps don’t match any maroon shirts or jackets, and it just annoys me. I’ll wear my maroon cap when I have on a white, gray or black shirt

I've been saying that about a lot of gear lately. Seems to be a shortage of good college gear from adidas lately. Especially in big man sizes

If anybody finds them please buy them all and let's have a sacrificial burning of them on the pitchers mound

I don't get the hate for these. These caps would look great with the all white, old style, shoeless joe jackson style unis.

Man, a maroon M over S hat that’s faded about three shades lighter with salt stains around the band and a big ole smudge on the bill where you’ve adjusted it a few hundred time while manning the grill just makes a statement. It says, ” I’ve been there, I passed out and I rallied so I’m back again” what shade of maroon it started out is irrelevant. The color variation isn’t just us, I was in SC last week and saw a whole rack of Alabama t shirts and the were as maroon as my Maroon Is The Only Color That Matters t shirt!

The team doesn't even have enough of them for all the staff yet. First to arrive was only enough for coaches and players. I'm sure the retail outlets will follow after the university is fully supplied.

Help me understand this. We can order $500+ helmets in every shade of maroon and logos we've used in multiple centuries for over 80 players to use each season, but not be able to order more than 50 baseball caps. Wow!

It doesn't matter if some of you old farts like it or not. Marketing 101 says you should have the swag ready when it is going to be shown on the field so the lemmings can make an impulsive purchase of that "new" thing. It happened with the 85 logo hoodies a few years back, the pirate's STATE sweatshirt, and quite a few other things that show up on a field and is not available to buy at that moment.

We're fairly near the top of the Adidas heap. We get new stuff pretty fast. The public part of it lags. And sometimes I think they wait to see the reaction for some reason. But that's why we stick with them. They get us new stuff.

Same here but my wife washed it and the MS bled into the white hat so it was retired.

Why can I not find an interlocking MS white hat with a maroon bill on any MSU site? Who is not paying attention? Who doesn't want to market and make game day gear available to the masses?

5 grand slams in '81..........Unreal.........
