## Description

REPLICA ON-FIELD BASEBALL SWEATERS JUST LIKE HOW THEY WORE IT History: Houston was the only city among the first four MLB expansion franchises that had never hosted MLB baseball. The city was without a park suitable for major league ball, and the Colt .45s hastily built a temporary ballpark adjacent to the location of their future home, the Astrodome. Colt Stadium was known for its heat and humidity, and although the Colts started with promise by sweeping the Cubs, the team finished in ninth place, above only their fellow expansionists, the New York Mets. After three seasons, the Houston club finally moved into baseball’s first dome and changed its name to the Astros.  When we released our first collection of shawl-collar MLB sweaters, we were delighted with the response. Of course, one common reaction was “Where’s my team?” Of course, as the shawl collar sweaters were worn on-field only into the early 1930s, our original selections were limited to the original sixteen clubs. But what if newer teams wore these sweaters? We created new designs to include expansion teams like the New York Mets and Los Angeles Angels, relocated teams like the Oakland Athletics and Baltimore Orioles, and updates to original teams like the Cubs and Giants. These alpaca/wool blend sweaters are made to the same exacting specifications as the ones from the early 20th century. They feature thick buttons and sewn felt chest emblems. Perfect for that off-season cold weather, sitting by the fireplace, and those early Spring Training games.
