## Description

REPLICA ON-FIELD BASEBALL SWEATERS JUST LIKE HOW THEY WORE IT History: After the departure of the Athletics for Oakland in 1968 political pressure in the form of Missouri Senator Stuart Symington led the authorities at MLB to accelerate their expansion schedule and ensure a replacement team for Kansas City. The new Royals (the name was chosen by fans in a “name the team” contest) entered the American League in 1969, along with the ill-fated Seattle Pilots. The Royals had their first winning season in 1971 and won consecutive division titles from 1976-1978.  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.
