Retroline Mitchell and Ness Vintage Embroidery Outline Snapback Hats

What is retroline?

The Mitchell and Ness snapback hat retroline collection is a collection that features a style of embroidered logo where the front logo has an outlined embroidered accent on the front two panels. This style of embroidery is not seen as often now as it was seen in the 80s and 90s because at the time back then, fashion was significantly more flashy, whereas now everything is more minimalistic and soft-spoken. This vintage NBA and retro NCAA snapback hat collection from the nostalgia-kings, Mitchell and Ness, immediately stands out as vintage mainly because of this embroidery style and the split color crown which is also something that in todays standards we don't see as often.

What kinds of hats are in this collection?

This collection from the Mitchell and Ness Retroline pack features exclusively adjustable snapback hats. Mitchell and Ness is one of the leaders in the headwear industry when it comes to snapback hat, as they are known for the quality of finish and the iconic silhouette. Mitchell and Ness snapback hats typically have a boxier front than something like a New Era 9Fifty. The Mitchell and Ness snaps look more square on the front crown and also more square on the brim. These are completely adjustable and will fit a variety of head sizes.

What makes these hats vintage?

The main thing that makes these Mitchell and Ness Retroline snapback hats vintage or retro in nature is the overall aesthetic of the color patterns and the embroidery style, in addition to the retro green undervisor. The green undervisor has become synonymous with old-school headwear because it takes us back to the 90s and prior when almost all headwear had green bottoms.
