New Era Unveils Cap Collection Made From Deconstructed Nautica Jackets

NEW ERA NAUTICA SCUBA COLLECTION 1

New Era has announced its first-ever collaboration with classic American sportswear brand Nautica and if you’re into vintage sportswear you’re going to want to read on. 

The brands have come together for several collections but what’s most striking are the limited-edition hats created from deconstructed vintage Nautica jackets. Each hat is unique and will offer striking details like patches, labels, pockets, zippers, and hardware from the jackets that built them.

As part of the New Era Cap x Nautica collaboration, more extensive collections — inspired by the classic Nautica Hydro Race, Scuba, and Color Block jackets — will be fleshed out.

“We are excited to collaborate with the New Era team on this limited-edition capsule collection,” said Steve McSween, VP of Global Design at Nautica, in a statement. “Our teams selected unique relics from our Nautica archive and New Era created fresh, collectible pieces. I’m excited that this partnership produced true one of a kind hats that celebrate our two iconic brands.”

The New Era x Nautica collections drop on August 24. Here’s a breakdown:
