Legacy

Legacy hats trace their vintage-inspired style back to humble beginnings in an off-campus apartment. Founded in 1992 by two law school roommates searching for a higher-quality, better-fitting cap than those found at their school bookstore, the Legacy brand began with a retro-inspired baseball hat designed to suit their standards. With its relaxed fit and “worn-in” look, the cap that resulted was met with great success, leading to an expanded headwear line. In the process, Legacy became a leading supplier of high-end headwear and apparel for colleges and resorts across the U.S. 

Today, Legacy designs and produces headwear reflecting current trends while maintaining their vintage roots. They continue to produce comfortable, retro-style baseball hats, focusing on unstructured caps and their signature washed fabrics that feel naturally “broken-in”. With meticulous attention to detail and craftsmanship, Legacy continues to be the choice for those seeking the right balance between comfort and appearance.

Adding your logo to a custom Legacy hat associates your brand with well-crafted, high-quality headwear. Frequently worn in everyday settings, these hats are the perfect “billboard” on which to promote your brand. At The Monterey Company, we specialize in customizing a wide variety of hats with premium embroidery and custom patches to ensure your logo or design stands out. With your branding on a Legacy hat you appeal to a diverse audience that values comfort and timeless style.
