New Era has launched its latest collection of draft caps, this time for the 2021 NFL draft.
This collection features the hats that players will wear when they’re selected by a team during the upcoming draft. That process will still be a little different this year, but it will feature more of a return to the norm with several top players set to attend the draft in person. When those players are selected in the draft, they’ll come out on stage and put on one of these hats.
Each season, New Era comes up with a brand new design for their draft caps. They’ve had some hits in the past, like the NFL draft caps that featured city skylines in 2015. Last year, the designs were supposedly inspired by the lights on the Las Vegas Strip as the draft was set to take place in Las Vegas, Nevada prior to its in-person cancellation due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
This year the hats feature an embroidered Chiefs patch on the front with a small Arrowhead logo and Kansas City in bold lettering. There’s also a contrasting visor and mesh panels on the side and the back. You’ll also find an NFL Shield at the rear, featuring the Chiefs’ team colors.

You can buy this collection of draft hats at neweracap.com, or any of your favorite sporting goods and headwear retailers. Retail pricing starts at $31.99.
These aren’t as simplistic as the caps launched ahead of the 2020 NFL draft, but they seem to be better than the ones released back in 2019, which were inspired by the Kansas City seal. Let us know your thoughts about the newest designs on Facebook and Twitter.
