New Era x Suicidal Tendencies
- Written by Pauly
Despite its fringe status and the endless rotation of band members, 2 things remained constants the last 3 decades for the band Suicidal Tendencies: the involvement of founder/lead singer/song writer Mike Muir through all its incarnations and its impact being as one of first band to cross elements of metal rock and punk music.
To commemorate the 25th anniversary of of its debut/self titled album released in 1983, New Era in collaboration with MedicomToy created a limited run of its 59FIFTY caps. Each features the band’s name as classic logo and SUICIDAL writing right under the hat's brim, like the classic OG Flip-Up hats that have been the band's trademark forever.
Presented at the 2008 Medicom Toy convention, the first test press were the black on black and black on white logo hats.
Classic black with white logo has then been released along with the first two later in 2008 and a variation with neon coloring was released in April 2009. All hats were produced in a very limited run.
A later collaboration with snowboard brand 686, took New Era back at work with ST to release a very unique limited edition of an unique mesh hat. Check the 686 collab link for all the info.
