The 2020 NFL Draft won’t be held under the bright lights of Las Vegas, but that won’t stop New Era from releasing its annual line of hats to commemorate the big event. The hats hit retailers on Tuesday, popping up on New Era’s website and on the NFL’s shop.
Rams fans already caught a glimpse of their team’s draft hat when it leaked the new logo a few weeks back, but the official cap is better than the one that popped up on Twitter.
Here’s a look at the Rams’ draft hats for 2020, which come in a variety of styles and fits.
Here’s a closer look at the two different styles, one of which just has the L.A. logo while the other reads “Los Angeles Football” across the front panel.
It’s pretty clear which hat will be preferred by fans, though neither are expected to be flying off the shelves after seeing the response to the team’s new logo.
The hat on the left is certainly better than the one that leaked, and is a better representation of the logo. The blue glow around it actually looks pretty cool, too.
The hat on the right, though, misses the mark. It’s too crowded and the coloring does nothing for the logo. The lack of blue makes it look even more generic than it already is.
Unfortunately, there isn’t a hat that features the redesigned ram head, which most fans seem to prefer over the L.A. mark.
All of the Rams’ draft hats can be found on New Era’s site.
