The holiday season can be an overwhelming time of doubt and uncertainty.

Next up: #6 New Era Dog Ear Hats.

What’s the #1 rule about winter? Protect. Your. Ears! No matter how bundled up and warm you are inside, if you don’t protect those ears—you’ll be a snowman once the cold hits outside. A New Era Dog Ear Hat will keep your ears protected from Old Man Winter; ensuring you’ll stay warm and stylish all season long. We carry 59fifty Dog Ear Hats in all 32 NFL teams, so you can stay nice and toasty whether you reside in Green Bay or Tampa Bay.

It’s been said, “The eyes are the window to the soul.” If that’s the case, then "the ears are the window to the cold." So, board up your windows with a Dog Ear 59fifty cap from Fanatics and keep the draft out of your head. New Era Dog Ear Hats not only protect your ears; they contain NE Tech technology that repels water, wicks moisture and provides UV protection for your whole dome. It’s basically a complete head containment unit with optional ear flaps—how can you go wrong with that?

You can’t stop winter; you can only hope to contain it. Look, the cold is going to find you no matter what you do; that’s winter’s job. The best thing you can do each year is battle the chill with the latest equipment. The New Era Dog Ear 59fifty Hat is not just your best defense against the cold, but also against lame seasonal style. Anyone can don an ear flap cap, but it takes a truly stylish NFL fan to wear one so comfy and hip like the New Era Dog Ear 59fifty. With a raised team logo on the front, you’ll tell the world just who you root for no matter the season. And, an NFL shield on the back and convertible ear flaps just add to the coolness and authenticity of this monumental Ear Flap Cap from New Era.
