New Era New York Yankees MLB 9FORTY Youth Cap Black
Does it fit a child’s head?
This is New Era’s youth size. The brand lists a head circumference of 53.9 to 55.8 centimeters for it, which roughly corresponds to ages six to twelve. Within that range, you adjust the rest with the strap at the back: pull it a little tighter or let it out, and the cap stays put. If in doubt, measure the circumference of the head just above the ears and compare it with the size guide.
What exactly is a 9FORTY?
9FORTY is New Era’s model name for a cap with a structured front, a pre-curved brim and an adjustable strap at the back. That strap is the difference from the other two well-known models: a snapback closes with snaps, and a fitted cap has no closure at all; you buy it by head size. The 9FORTY sits in between and leaves a little room to grow.
Why is the logo so understated?
The embroidered NY of the New York Yankees is in the same black as the rest of the cap. You see it in the raised embroidery, not in a difference in color. That keeps it a low-key cap that goes with lots of jackets and sweaters, while the team is still easy to recognize for those in the know. The New Era flag sits on the side. This is official MLB gear, so the logo is accurate down to the shape of the letters.
For school, sports and the sun
The pre-curved brim keeps the sun out of the eyes on the schoolyard, on the bike and along the sidelines. Cotton breathes and doesn’t feel warm. If the cap gets dirty, wipe it with a damp cloth and let it dry in shape; in the washing machine, a cap with a structured front loses its shape.
We sell this youth cap most often to parents looking for something that lasts a few years; with the strap at the back you stretch that by a season or two. Measure the head before you order, so you know for sure whether you end up with the youth size or the adult size.
Looking for a cap for a child of about six to twelve
Want a cap that grows a little with the strap at the back
Looking for something understated that goes with any jacket
Does your child play outside and do you want to keep the sun out of their eyes
If the head is larger than 55.8 centimeters, take the regular adult 9FORTY instead of this youth size.
If you want the logo to stand out, black on black is the wrong choice; look at a version with a white NY.
