Flying Tiger fitted caps

[hueytaxi]

Received notice today from MLB Shop.com that my order has been cancelled as the product is not available.

[chuckles396]

That's crappy. You guys don't have them available at the field?

The Old English "L" Lakeland Tigers hats were exceedingly rare as well. One summer I tried to collect game caps of all of our affiliates (minus Erie...don't really like the cartoonish design), but could not for the life of me find a fitted 59/50 Lakeland Tigers cap.

What the hell is wrong with the Lakeland merch team?

[keglerv]

The prices on the merchandise while I was there was on the high side as well. It really seems like they just don't get it when it comes to merchandising.

Talked to the head of our new merch team and told her of my story. No we do not have the game fitted cap available. She is checking with her supplier and I'll add to this later.

[Mr.MelissaG915]

That sucks. Let me know what you find out. I want one if available.

[hueytaxi]

Will do also same for Redshark

Lakeland received their first shipment of the fitted caps last night. Unknown about the future. Received a dozen of each size and they sold a lot at opening. They are $33.00 and will find out if they will accept orders.

[fyrftrjim]

It was amazing how many they sold last night especially at $33.00, IMO that's a little excessive for a hat, but I guess because there on limited supply is the reasoning they cost so much.

[Ecky]

Does that come with a flying lesson as well??? $33.00 for a ball cap? Limited or not that seems excessive

[hueytaxi]

Will have a phone number to order direct tomorrow I hope.

The logo is growing on me, I think I will have to pick one up. Thanks for the updates.

[sagnam]

Any progress on this?

Maria is the receptionist and makes things happen. Much more than "just" a receptionist. Ask her to connect you with Elise in Concessions (the Mgr) and you might wish to tell Maria of your request at the same time. She is a key player behind the operations' successes. If all else fails, I will make it happen.

[sagnam]

Did you ever get a direct number? If not I will try that number/email this week.

[hueytaxi]

No I haven't. Maria is a fantastic "doer" with the LFT. If you can't get contact, IM me and I'll help.

[sagnam]

Order placed. Thank you, sir. Both of the ladies were extremely helpful. Thank them again for me if you get a chance.

[weaselpuppy]

any logo'd items with the actual flying tigers motif on them yet? ( the planes)

that wallpaper on their site and at the grand unveling was bad ***...

[hueytaxi]

Tees are available with the Warhawk on them in black and light blue. I'll try and post pix tomorrow.

[sagnam]

Great experience ordering directly from LFT. I received the hat yesterday (6/30), incredibly fast shipping. It looks great, I love the logo.

Looking forward to seeing your pictures of the shirts, I may have to place another order ....

[hueytaxi]

Thanks for the reminder. And glad to hear your purchase went well. I plan to photo the shop on Wednesday night to get everything.
