Are these still available?

If so, where can I get one? I have looked everywhere online.

Any help would be appreciated.

It is doubtful you would find a TPX hat anywhere but Ebay. Team uses Easton now and the hats are 100% Adidas now, if I remember correctly (though last year they were still Proline).

They wore them last year? If so, you would think someone would have a few left for sale in BCS.

If anyone sees one, please post where they are available.

They were never sold in CS or at games, just the Adidas look-alikes. From what I understand, the people with legit Pro-Line caps got them at away games - I got mine at the TCU game.

the hats now are all adidas, official hats are at the msc bookstore. not the replica hats they had last year, these actually look and fit like baseball hats

As Bigfoot said, the ones at the MSC are Adidas, non-Proline.

Lids sales the Pro-Line version online, but there is no Adidas symbol on it if that is important to you. Otherwise, they are the exact same hat worn by the baseball team last year.

Bigfoot,

I noticed that there was a new white mesh flat billed hat with maroon bill at the MSC that was flex fit. Is that a new hat for the Baseball team or just a regular hat? It was flex fit, so that makes me think it isn't for the baseball team, since most players like fitted/sized hats...Cool hat though. Do you know anything about those? Thanks in advance!

Last year team wore Pro-Line hats with Adidas Logo
Capitol Ag

Colorado is correct. The hats from this past season were made by Pro-Line as they have been most of the decade. They just had Adidas logos on them for '08. The one from Lids will not have the logo. But the hats we used in '08 were not made by Adidas. From what I understand due to the amount of time between when we inked the deal with Adidas and the start of baseball season, Adidas could not supply hats in time and what they were able to supply the team did not like. So we kept Pro-Line as the supplier and had Adidas logos put on them in a special agreement btw the manufacturer and Adidas. Not sure if the team is going to use Pro-Line for their hats this season, but the hats that Adidas are calling the official ones are being sold at the MSC. Looked like they had plenty in stock. They are a nice hat. You can get them online at Aggielocker.com...Personally, that is what I would go with if I were you, as these are probably what the team will be wearing this upcoming season or something very close.

Bevel Sucks. Baseball teams should not have beveled logos on their hats. Just my opinion.

I found this one. I like it better.



It is still kind of beveled but not as bad.

I agree. T-Star sucks too.

There is also this hat from the Texags Store by Zephyr...
No bevel, if that is what you like...

I saw one of those too. Don't know where they sell them.

As far as I know, the team is not wearing the flex fit hats. They are going to be wearing the fitted adidas hats, last I heard. If I hear of anything different, I will let you know.

Thanks Bigfoot!

Tex100,
The MSC bookstore sales them...

Thanks. Don't see it on their website.

You are right. They haven't put it up yet I guess. You can always call 'em and they can ship it if you want. They are pretty knowledgeable of their products...

You do realize SABUILDERAG the one you like has the beveled A&M on it.

And complaining about the beveled logo is equivalent to going to your wifes closet and trying on her pantyhose. Let it go, it is here to stay and it matters about, well does not even register on any scale.
bigfoot10s
How long do you want to ignore this user?
the beveled ATM is now the official symbol of A&M. It is the symbol that the athletics dept adopted, and is here to stay until they change it. I am not a huge fan of it either, but thats how it is.

Capitol. They claim they have no such prodeuct. The one I am talking about is the same style as RC is wearing on the Colorado football ticket. I know I saw one that was a flex fit type of cap at the K State game.
Capitol Ag
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Tex,

Not sure. I need to find my K-State ticket unless I tossed it due to the fact I wanted nothing left to remind me of that game

I was at the MSC today before the tt game and got one of the Mesh flex fit hats. It is white with maroon bill and a maroon (yes beveled) TAM and has Aggies on back with Adidas logo on side. The sticker on the hat was labeled "Baseball Batting Practice Hat". Not sure if we actually use these in practice in fall ball, but it is a nice hat.....

Did you read my post, or just feel the need to spout off?

here is the line from my post:

I read it, and it is not "kind of" it is beveled. Did you not read what you wrote before you spout off copying yourself and looking like a doof?
SABUILDERAG

Look at the two hats and tell me that the ATM looks the same. They don't. One is beveled, the other is outlined.

Thanks for playing.

I have looked for the past year for TPX before finally just getting a new proline. If you find one I would love to know ........

Crazy, when you say you were looking for a TPX hat but bought Pro-Line, are you saying you were looking for the older Pro-Line hats from '06-'07 seasons?

TPX hats and Pro-Line hats are the same thing (Crazy, you may know this but some on here may not and the info may help). Prior to last season Pro-Line was putting TPX on the back of A&M's cap b/c the team used Louisville Slugger as a supplier of certain equipment (TPX is part of Louisville Slugger's product line including bats, gloves, mitts, catcher masks and pads, batting helmets). Pro-Line gives their teams the option to put suppliers like Easton, TPX, etc. on the back of the hats they supply if a team desires it or has a contract with the supplier to do so. We switched last season to Easton, so Pro-Line no longer put TPX on the hats. Instead of having Easton put on our hats someone on the team who is in charge of this stuff decided to put the T-Star on the hat. Obviously they put the Adidas logo on them too since they also supply the team. Those Pro-Line hats with the Adidas logos were never supposed to be sold to the public, but some were accidentally supplied to Barcelonas Sporting goods. Those sold out pretty fast so they got more without the Adidas on them....

You probably will not be able to find a Pro-Line with TPX on it as they are no longer being made.I would check EBAY or something like that. The A&M Athletics site has an auction which may offer some old TPX hats they may have not used yet. That site has been selling a lot of equipment so there is a chance. It would be another place to look. As to whether the team uses Pro-Line this coming season, it is up to the team. Bigfoot who's wife works for the MSC if I am not mistaken has stated that the new hat will be an Adidas produced one. Beveled T and all. Personally the bevel doesn't bother me, but neither does the non-bevel.....

If I ever see any on Ebay or on the A&M Athletics auction site, i will post.

Update: This one is available in the Texags.com store. It is the closest I could find. I bought it and love it.

Closest thing to the old TPX IMO.

Looks like just another low profile cap you can get anywhere. No college baseball team would wear something like that.

You can get the actual "on the field" hats minus the adidas logo directly from Pro-line in Ft. Worth. Just google the website and call them. They were very easy to deal with when I bought mine last year.

Oh, and FYI they run a little large.

We may always have Pro-Line caps with an Adidas logo sewn on, Texas did for years even though they had a Nike deal, may still.

I got a couple replicas outside of Rosenblatt in Omaha last Summer, same Pro-Line cap but did not have the Adidas logo. Asked why they did not and the guy said Pro-Line does not have the right to sew on or sell any cap with an Adidas logo to anyone but Texas A&M University.

The store outside of Rosenblatt was The Dugout, just FYI if we have any fans up there.

I bought this hat prior to the 2001 season. I would love to be able to replace it, but I like it enough that I will just keep wearing it until (if?) they go back to the old aTm.

Will94, it looks like you stole my cap! Only mine has been ridden hard and put up wet so many times it does not fit right anymore. The wife won't let me wear it in public anyway...

Will,
That hat looks awesome! DO NOT get a new one. That is the way a hat should look....
