St Kilda FC is joining the likes of the New England Patriots, the Cleveland Cavaliers and the New York Yankees by partnering with global headwear giant, New Era.

Since 1920, New Era has been hand-crafting the finest headwear in the world. The Company is headquartered in Buffalo, New York, and its products are sold in more than 80 countries. New Era has commenced producing on field St Kilda caps this year.

St Kilda FC Chief Commercial and Marketing Officer Christine Finnegan said it was an exciting opportunity to partner with such a well-known brand. 

“We’re thrilled to partner with such a global giant and we’re really looking forward to a prosperous relationship,” Finnegan said.

“We’re consistently looking for new ways to enable our players and supporters to have access to the best the world has to offer and we’re definitely doing that through this partnership.”

General Manager of New Era Australia Simon Hibbs said he was also excited to work with the club into the future.

"We are very excited to announce our partnership with St Kilda Football Club, as their official on field headwear supplier,” Hibbs said.

“We look forward to bringing the best headwear in the world to both the players and the fans at the club.”

A limited range of St Kilda branded New Era caps are currently available via shop.saints.com.au with more styles expected to roll out throughout February and March.
