1999-Present Lake Elsinore Storm Home Cap

I'm getting close to putting down the landing gear on this six-month long Viaje (Spanish for "Road Trip") of west coast MILB teams and there is not a better California League cap to bring it on home on than the Lake Elsinore home cap, which the team has worn consistently since 1999.

This is one of the most popular logos in all of minor league baseball, but I'm personally not as into it. The eyes remind me of those "No Fear" shirts from the early 1990s which are only fondly remembered by those who enjoyed wearing toxic masculinity on a t-shirt back then.

I'm unable to pin down a year for this cap because it was acquired secondhand a few years ago through a bulk purchase that I occasionally refer to as the Great eBay Haul, or just the eBay Haul if I'm feeling modest. Also, the team has worn this logo since the beginning of time.

The price sticker on this "low-profile" style cap reads $28 so it would seem whoever owned this cap before me got it for a pretty good deal. Not as good of a deal as I got but good, nonetheless.

Believe it or not, I've actually got about two more California League caps to share after this one so I hope you're exited for those as well as what comes next!

This week's cap is a size 7 3/8 which fits me fine but as I've mentioned before, I'm not a big fan of the logo so this one will be going on the Trading Block. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you want this or any other cap from that list and you are willing to part with any of the hats on my Wish List.
