In case any of my six readers have forgotten the back story, I was displeased with the bacon cap I enthusiastically ordered, because the fit was odd, and the shape of the hat was kind of bulbous.
As much as I tried to really love the cap, I just couldn’t get around the fact that it made my head look like The Head, and the rim of the cap would dig into my ears. Upon some research about NewEra caps, I discovered that the reasoning behind such a shoddy product was the fact that the bacon cap, like the vast majority of minor league baseball caps, were manufactured in China, where the results have been notorious for being inconsistent and misshapen.
Long story short, I discovered that the bacon cap was offered from MLB.com directly, where they clearly state that it is made in the USA, so I ended up ordering it again, with hopes that the claims would be true, and I would get a bacon cap that fit and looked right. Otherwise, I was ready to wage war with MLB.com if they dared send me another shoddy Chinese-made bacon cap.
