For the first time in 7 years, New Era Philippines is releasing an iconic 59Fifty cap for their Anniversary that is available for pre-ordering this time only in your size in all stores and online.
This anniversary cap comes in an all-black 59Fifty silhouette made of 100% cotton, featuring all-over patches representing the New Era Cap here in the Philippines.
The front right panel features an embroidery of the classic “New Era Ask Any Pro” logo which is a logo that has been used by the brand dating back to the 1960s.
The left front panel features a blue patch containing the coordinates of the Philippines printed on silk.
Stitched underneath the coordinates is a label tag that shows a handwritten established date “7/14/15” which was the date when the first-ever New Era store officially launched in the Philippines.
The left panel features an embroidery of a golden circular stamp resembling the one you would see on packages which indicates the years New Era Cap Philippines has been present on our shores – 2015•2022.
On the opposite panel, embroidery of a red mail stamp can be seen which contains a bold 5950 in the center – representing the silhouette used for the cap, as well as New Era being the Originators of the True Fitted.
The rear panel features an embroidery of a red “Priority” stamp in bold letters signifying the priority of producing the cap in your size, while the opposite panel features a gold embroidery that reads “Made in the Philippines” which boasts that this collection is a local collaboration and is exclusively available in the Philippines.
The PACKAGE RECEIVED collectible in 5950 is a one-time only release – at least for the next 3 years.
ANATOMY OF THE PACKAGE: THE ART TOY (Collaboration)
The Yasha 2.0, crafted specially for New Era Philippine’s 2nd Anniversary was created by Philippines local toy artist, EJ Sulit.
SLIM SULIT, known to friends simply as EJ, is a toy collector, designer and customizer who never stops creating. His past experiences in joining exhibits where he was able to showcase his upcycled toys, dioramas, one-off custom creations and bootleg miniatures alongside other local artists who are leading the designer toy resurgence in the Philippines, re-ignited EJ’s passion for creating something extraordinary, which led to his first designer art toy release – YASHA
Known to many as the “Shy Boy in a hood and a mask”, Yasha has been a consistent favorite in both local, and international toy shows, and with over 25 editions released in just the past 2 years and is a beloved fixture in many art toy collectors’ shelves.
The Yasha 2.0, weighing 56g at 63mm height, is a hand-casted, hand-painted figure made from premium-grade resin and acrylic paint.
Showcasing the beloved Yasha character in his new sitting position, with his hoodie down to flex his New Era cap, this art toy comes with the addition of 2 interchangeable caps with neodymium military-grade magnets.
A true art piece.
The Package received collection pre-ordering slots will close on August 15, 2022, 10pm. A few pcs of the Yasha collection will still be available on-shelf on a first come first served basis this August 2022.
