New Era Cap Joins Team USA and LA28 With Multi-Year Official Product Agreement
New Era Cap, LLC, the international sports and lifestyle brand, announced a multi-year “Official Product” agreement with the U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Teams, joining an elite group of licensees in creating exclusive sportswear for Team USA for the Olympic & Paralympic Games Paris 2024, Olympic & Paralympic Winter Games Milan 2026 and the LA28 Games including LA28 Games product.
New Era will provide exclusive headwear to U.S. Olympians and Paralympians, beginning with the moment they make the U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Teams through their experiences in Paris. This new agreement with New Era Cap represents Team USA’s first-ever official product deal with a headwear-focused brand.
“We are excited to be expanding our relationship with Team USA, reflecting not only New Era’s legacy in the American sporting scene, but our brand’s global influence on fashion and culture,” said Todd Sokolowski, Director of Licensed Products at New Era Cap. “The honor of earning the title ‘Olympian’ or ‘Paralympian’ is a moment fit for glory, and New Era is proud to equip the inspiring U.S. team with headwear and apparel as they chase the podium in Paris.”
Throughout the spring and into the summer, athletes have received special Team USA-branded New Era caps with the phrase “Made It” embroidered on the underside of the visor upon making the Olympic and Paralympic teams.
At the Team USA Welcome Experience at the Paris Games, athletes will receive three additional New Era caps – a bucket hat, a beret, and a trucker-style cap – that are exclusive to Olympians and Paralympians.
“The athletes have been waiting their entire lives for this moment and we don’t take that lightly,” said Peter Zeytoonjian, SVP, Consumer Products of the U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Properties (USOPP) and LA28. “It is our responsibility to make the experience as special as possible with the best brands, like New Era, to help us support them achieve their dreams.”
New Era’s collaboration with LA28 will bring a fresh look to the first summer Olympic and Paralympic Games held in the United States in more than three decades when the Games arrive in Los Angeles in 2028.
