Need. I really hope it’s available for sale
🤤🤤
I really wish they were wearing retro uniforms too. Imagine Tatis in the 1980’s or 1990’s uniforms 🤤
No let’s go back to the 1969 team uni for 1 game
need them bring this back as an alternate cap, but add the yellow button back for historical accuracy
I hope this is the beginning of the bell cap as a regular alt hat, maybe like how the Cardinals wear the bird on the bat cap on Sundays.

Oooooof
1980 to 1984, brown hat with brown bill, orange eyelets & button, black under bill. Front panel is yellow “bell” shaped with orange outline and brown SD logo, also outlined in orange. This is my chefs kiss of hats.
I love the retro cap!!
Would love this retro to be our next City Connects.
got one a couple weeks back. its dooooooope.
I like the way the whole logo is slightly lower down on the hat so you can see the full S in SD, like Mudcat was showing during the game earlier, or in the pregame, can’t remember. I agree with another commenter that these would be a cool regular ALT hat

I might be alone but I’ve always thought those hats were ugly. If we embrace throwbacks, I wish we’d embrace the [1998 pinstripes](https://preview.redd.it/ulwdbxpohgx01.jpg?auto=webp&s=0f7f4e936293f286b3231fcc7da62ac1c91e5981). Those with the [navy hat with white/orange logo](https://www.billioncreation.com/product/new-era-5950-san-diego-padres-1998-tony-gwynn-throwback-fitted-hat/) were our best uniforms. I know they’re not brown/gold, but I really wish we went for these as our throwbacks.
Shoulda gone with ‘98
