  • i like the crip one lol

  • i dont really see a problem with the one with the crown

  • I feel what you saying but new era never done anything to me yeah the colors are gang related i own one of those caps the red one im not affliated yall got them style caps off the market now they making them in solid colors still can be gang related just face you cantg beat new era new era harm me ive been wearing them caps for 26 yrs of my life never got jumped

  • Any crip ones left?

  • I got the bandana one in white

  • the scooby doo gang also have them lol

  • i saw da bloods hat in cross county mall on the store hat stop

  • People are the problem not the Hats

  • LMFAO what faggot would wear tht shit, if you honestly representing one or another might as well get a full colour cap no nigga would wear that fruit loop hat If it was black then thtz a another story. You might as well get a full single colour cap, almost as bad but looks miles better. if you get this you want to get jumped by some pussy

  • who the fuck would wear a new era with a bandana on it? those shits are ugly as fuck

  • pfftt why not new era gangsta caps...basically thats what they are being used as

  • I have a hate with bandana print...I'm no gangsta ass punk

  • no offense to anyone but parents should raise their kids properly dont have rappers as their role models...all these little kids want to grow up as perps and gangsters....ok the bandana hats looked like gang hats...but the designers of these hats live in buffalo ny....come on now...anyway any blood will wear a boston hat and so on...u can wear a blue tie in the hood with a grey suit and you're a crip...are we protesting blue ties?

  • hahah smart move by new era, but they couldn't pull it off.... I mean the caps were obviously designed to symbolize the gangs. Don't tell me they designed THREE CAPS, a RED & BLACK one, a BLUE & GRAY one, and another one with a latin kingz crown in it, and it was just a coincidence. Had it been a coincidence there would be other cap colors for those designs too like maybe green or yellow, but no! There were only RED & BLACK, and BLUE & GRAY caps. THIS WAS IN NO WAY A COINCIDENCE!

  • @BeatPerfection new era is german company they dont care for balck ppl

  • FUCK NEW YORK man come up to LA

  • 3:36 racist

  • New Era voluntarily recalled these hats as soon as it was brought to their attention. They make a shitload of hats and I'm pretty sure they were not trying to make hats for gangs. Boycott if you want but New Era is a Socially Responsible Corporation!

  • I love how new era made it sound like they didn't know that people would take these as gang affiliated caps. even though the guy that runs the company is obviously bookoos rich, im pretty sure he knows about the bloods, crips, and latin kings. thing is gangs they dont just wear bandanas, they wear hats that represent their colors. so a person thats not gang affiliated can walk in a crip 'hood w/ a reds cap on and get jumped.

  • NY? Fuck, take a trip to the heart of Los Angeles county.

  • lol ill take the crip one and wear it in chicago LOL

  • what y'all want these caps are cool ;P

  • @Kdubslugga im black and that shit had me dying laugh LMAO

  • @EnvelopedInDarkness Glad you gotta good sense of humor!! lol

  • hey i got that yankee latin king hat size 7 1/2 if anyone wants to buy it?

  • This is stupid. I guess the bandana makes the hats a little excessive, but there are already hundreds of New Era hat styles with common gang colors.

  • where can i buy a cripz hat???

    fuck this nigga mann

  • where can I buy a New Era Latin Kings cap from?

  • nigga

  • funny how every1 knos its the wite ppl who own the bussineses promoting gang culture

  • I understand that people want to stop gang violence, shit we all do because originally it was supposed to be about unity but these assholes ruined gang names. But as a whole, you all seem to find a reason to picket and complain. Your misery? You have nothing else to do but blame gangs on your own bullshit? It's ridiculous.

  • I think ur missing the point in the last half of your comment. No one is complaining about their misery or blaming gangs on "bull shit" Rather, this is sending a message to clothing companies who are trying to profit off a subculture that is historically connected with gang violence and to hold them and the stores accountable for their profits when what they sell can lead to innocent lives being taken based on gang colors. This is not a reason 2 complain, but a reason to enlighten the ignorant.

  • And I think your missing the fact where the guy in the video actually said the word "misery". Let's give you a little lesson on selling subcultures. Graffiti is a subculture of hip-hop, if you didn't know. How many different clothing lines have tag names or graffiti based products? Let's name a few shall we? Marc Ecko, South Pole and RocaWear. If you knew much about street art, you'd know crews are gangs to. But no, we never look at it that way do we? I'm a street artist myself and know that.

  • If you knew much about how crews run, if anyone disrespects your crew or tags over your peice, you do whatever possible to take them out either on their tag or hurt them. That's how bombers think, most of them actually. Also, maybe we should just take colors out of hats too. Let's just take Blue, Red, and Yellow hats off the shelves. Not a problem right? Bandana's are bandana's. Related to a gang or not, their bandanas. Maybe someone should teach their child not to wear em, if their not.

  • alright you point is partially well taken. The capitalist model where by any and all sub cultures are subject to exploitation by corporations is how hip-hop became co-opted. Now, granted turf wars due to tagging on walls and buffing out another artist on the walls has led to violence, but if you look at the larger picture, graffiti is an expression of creativity, art, culture, class, music, dance, and even community. Street art has evolved and is a pillar in hip-hop.

  • In my opinion however, the sale and promotion of a historically violent gang that makes some one else rich (whitey), is the exploitation of a sub culture that really hasn't benefited our community. But say a Crypt member or a Blood decided that if they created and sell these hats and the profits went back into the communities they come from rather than a corporation we would be talking a different story. Change the course of the $ trail, and you can change the course of a community,

  • On your first comment, I will agree with you to which you have validated points, just like I have. On your second comment, here's where I'll put input. To say that "whitey" has taken the sale and promotion of a historically violent gang is a bunch of bullshit because African Americans (blacks) do the same thing with music. We can both name artists that still do it and more then half of them are on a company owned by blacks. Let's take Def Jam or DTP as an example.

  • I forgot to add BME recordings as well. I'm sure you know the names of the owners, so I won't waste time on that. Artists on those labels have promoted gang violence, yet it's okay to promote that? Absolutely not. The point I'm making is it's just not whitey. As for the last part of your comment, I don't know where you live but as for here in Staten Island, some members do try and do that. As well as in Coney Island where I reside partly. But believe me, I can agree with not wanting violence.

  • I just don't understand why it's such a big deal, when basically people have tried to censor the rap industry, and in turn it never works. But when someone makes a hat, it's a HUGE problem. Do you remember Makaveli clothing? Same example. Blood, Crypt and King attire yet everyone seems to shun that out too.

  • you guys are missing the point. There were not saying that they could prevent gang from a cap. They are saying New Era a major sport company should not profit off of known violent gangs. that's the issue not the gangs themselves.

  • dont be stupid no body gonna be a crip or a blood for a cap dont talk shit men

  • every1 wanna make something a gang problem its just a hat

  • it's just a hat to you, but to people where these sets is being repped....it can cause friction. I mean don't get me wrong....if somone wanna rep a gang they can do it easily by wearing the colors...however it's just mad suspect a big company like new era would cash in on that.

    I guess unless you been around that type of lifestyle you can't relate to the seriousness of it.

  • for real

  • I wonder if they are doing anything to prevent gang violence? Picketing a hat manufacturer is the cowards way out of not doing anything to get rid of the gangs. They are using kids as martyrs for their cause but what are they doing if anything at all to prevent those so called innocent little kids from getting involved in gangs?

  • i rock new era caps and i love them but those hats shouldn't be sold he's got a point

  • ok maybe the bandana caps could be presented as gang caps but what if the made a whole shit load of different colors for them they wouldnt be so bad but it's just that new era make all kinds of differnet symbols and color on all of there hats

    FOR AN EXAMPLE: the white sox cap could be considered a gang cap,just a simle yankee cap with just the symbol could be considered a gang cap, and also the biggest and most known cap that could easily be consodered a gang cap THE LOS ANGELAS DODGERS CAP

  • I want that "Latin King" hat, my school is the royals and since there's no Kings in my town no one would have a problem.

  • this guy is an idiot. new era makes ALL baseball hats, not jus yankee hats

  • haha yankees suck mets rule haha mets sdont have gang hats

  • r those the only gang hats

  • yea

  • no, da hat on my bg es straight SURENO x13. SOX hats r also great SICK SIDE hats

  • I like how they stand up for their community. I feel we should do this all over America.

  • Don't care for those kind of caps myself. If the Yankees don't wear it on the field, neither do I.

  • how the fuck is it that in new york a big ass city with its own identity has bloods and crips shit that started out here in l.a...i always thought new york gangs hated west coast gangs now yall got bloodz and cripz??

  • Nej, gøre kærlighed til mig!

  • hvad snakker du om ? hold din kæft du har bare brugt GoogleTranslate! ;D

  • It does make life a whole lot easier.

  • I swear you guys don't get it do you this is doing something about gang violence don't get me wrong i think the blood cap is as hot as hell, but wearin a hat like that can get someone killed, and New Era obviously knows what those hats stand for. Like i said i like the caps i just see people gettin killed and families ruined over these, especially children

  • dude i like the caps but they actually get people killed so i wouldn't talk this guy is right

  • Fuck off, why not do something about ACTUAL GANG MEMBERS>>>

  • im fuckin drulin on that latin king hat. amor de rey

  • so, have they stopped this designs??? and my cuz said bloodz and cripz are like gone, is it true????

  • The fuck? A kid can go into walmart and buy a blue rag for 5 bucks and wear it and walk into the wrong street you dumb fucks, get off the hat companies dicks.

  • Who cares? Any loser who would buy scumbag shit like this gets what they deserve/

  • Fuck that (Crips4live)

  • mannn I want one of those hats too :[

  • This is probably the stupidest video uploaded on youtube about New Era. 8 and 9 year olds wearing fitted hats? I am a New Era collector and I take notice to alot of hats, and I very rarely see young kids wearing fitted caps first of all. Second of all these hats are simply different designs that they have come out with, and they are actually good looking hats. I wonder if these people will go around the town and try to get every red and blue shirt pulled off the rack as well

  • good lookin out

  • i went to a store at my mall and i saw the crip one i put it down and im like "mom not this one"

  • Comment removed

  • hes talking about the ones with the actual gang designs on them you moron. obviously most new era hats have no gang affiliation

  • they are protesting them because they are promoting gang activity with those SPECIFIC caps with the gang colors/logos on them. They arent saying all people who wear new era are in a gang, fucking retard.

  • yo if only I could find the design name for the blue-lined white crip cap^^...awesome thing

  • there not promoting gang violence dumbass. i really want one of those red bandana caps, and im just a white kid from michigan. its a sharp looking hat by the famous new era cap company, deal with it. i cant believe they stopped this line because idiots thought it was making gangs kill each other. No. they kill eachother cause they have nothing better to do. even if they do, let them do it, it just gets rid of more of them.

  • what's a blood cap?

    peace

  • fagggoooooottttt

  • you're obviously just tryin to stir shit. The blue rag and the crown are representative of two different gangs

  • "knoccin tha hat not the culture" hahaha kid said it right there u didnt give a fucc about anything cept takin the hats down hats dont kill you people kill you if u wanna stop violence get ya ass out there and tell ur congress person to cracc down on gang

    violence dont try to uselessly boycott a product just cuhz u feel like it

    "New Era gear promotes gang fear" ??

    you promoted the fear New Era did nothing but sell their product

  • on top of that gang uniforms have changed its not just a bandanna and a rag of their color its starter jaccets and INK

    everybody knows their enemy a gang member will not waste his time killing you for no reason... if you are mugged on the streets its by someone who wants your money if you're murdered on the streets it was because you were doing the wrong thing its not the color its the actions

    whats next you're gonna try and remove red blue and yellow from the rainbow?

  • what mexican has to do with it any kid that came from weteva country dosnt understand whats the deal with the  gangs , im mexican and i wear newera hats all the time and i know the risk of wearing that kind of hats , is a good movement ... keep doing ya thing..

  • it is what it is, rep

  • so what the hats r cool lookin

  • that's what the kids think when they buy em but these cool hats are getting kids killed

  • no ones dying becuase of fucking hats

  • Yeah they are. People get killed all the time for "wearing the wrong thing" and now it's moved to hats. You haven't seen it in the news? Where do you live?

  • They don't get killed for wearing anything they get killed for saying and doing.

    A guy is not gonna kill a 10 year old because of his Yankees cap. Even though the Yankees suck balls.

  • That seems logical, but unfortunately, lost of people in these gangs do not think before acting and kill innocent people assuming that because they where a certain color, a certain hat, or if their hat is turned a certain way, the MUST be in a gang.

  • Exactly. Gang members don't wanna hear your excuse if your wearing the wrong colors. If one of the kids are wearing a flag and goes to a different neighborhood, he's a target. I don't think that companies should be profiting off the blood of inner city youths.

  • @dub1423 are you kidding me? wear one in the wrong neighbourhood and it'll be the last hat you wear.

  • ppl who do gang vıolence wıll always be vıolent regardless ıf they or theır vıctıms where thıs cap or not. ıts just a hat that these gangs sybolıse. ıts nothıng to do wıth the cap ıtself. ıt cuould have been a paır of gloves. all ıt ıs ıs just a company that supplıes qualıty caps thats all!

  • R any stores or merchants still selling them anywhere in NYC?

  • Latin Kings Are Big In NY i like the hats but i dont know if i'd wear em i think just older dude should be the only ones in gangs so i have nuttin agest gangs but kids really have no biz in that life unless they grew up in that stuff know what i mean?

  • well no shit fucken idiot if u aint from no hood don't wear that shit,,,simple as that u fucken morons,,,i don't like the yankees and i aint from new york so i dont wear a yankees hat ..come on man stop the dumb shit if u aint a banger dont buy it simple n plain

  • This is just stupid is just a fucking cap

  • The caps aren't promoting anything around that type of shit unless they SAY SO.

  • fuck no, disrespect for my blue ragg, cant tolerate that.

    southern cali up in here

  • i no wtf NEW ERA GEARS PROMOTES GANGS WTFFF thats the stupidiest shyt ever. ITS a fuckin HAT damn. FUCK WHOEVER MADE THIS VID. ITS not gang related

  • 20 years from now blacks aint gonna be in the hod nomore! they have too much opportunity to get out! foreigners like iraqis and afghans are gonna flood the streets and take over! i dont think they gonna be on some bull shit like gangbangin, holy war and mass bombings will be in the streets!

  • your right, black people get picked over white people because of there skin color. white will be minority in the future,

  • this shit is stupid. he said himself that the little kids were yellin blood and throwin up the gang signs n shit, so they obviously know what the fuckin hat stands for.

  • When did new york actually steal bloods and crips from the west coast?

  • n.y stole westcoast shit in the 80's when they saw us being all hard while they had no shit, so they jacked some westcoast shit.

  • you asshole you got my favroite hats banned

    i am not a gang member i just like new era hats

  • I'm a defender of the community. Black Superman!

  • gang caps ... u gana get sh0t my friend...

  • now niggaz cant wear fitteds white people try to take everything from us what next we cant wear boxers because of the bloods and crips wear them next thing you know they gonna tell us we cant wash our ass..lmfao

  • are you serious?

  • you never know i dont mean to be rascist or anything its not all white people its just some of them think things like this or people of a different race stand for bad things and etc..

  • If me or one of my homies sees a kid wearin one of theese, we aint gonna bother lil dude, he gonna go bout his buisness.

    Even gangs have rules,and hurtin kids and innocent is a sin in da hood....a few words from your friendly neighborhood thugs. lol

  • Same Shit! wtf is wrong?

  • blue and red and green are basic colors what other colors they gonna use purple or pink or orange looking like a damn ice cream how about not letting your kids walk the streets alone

  • you speak truth dude

  • Mi ingles es muy malo pero aún asi creo que este vídeo es lo mas ridículo que he visto en mucho tiempo...

    Como cojones se atreven a decir que el crimen está relacionado con llevar una puta gorra? esto no tiene sentido, esto es hilarante, esto solo podía pasar en America jajajajajaja.

    Vendiendo sangre? vendiendo crimen? pero vosotros os estais oyendo??????

    These ridiculous things only can happen in america...

    I am proud to have born in europe

  • an innocent child could be unknowingly wearing a hat that they have no knowledge of what it signifies and they may get hurt corporations like new era should not condone this foolishness

  • its gonna be gang violence with or without a new era bandana hat,it doesnt make a difference...

  • i like the hats but  i have them but i onley wear the black one

  • dam i gotta get me one of those

  • dam i gotta get me one of those

  • yea I've seen the paisley (bandana) design hats, but even without those hats, there's still gonna be violence

  • I wear NEW ERA CAP (NY) but im not in tha gang,bloods,crips, an continue 8-)

  • nikoho to ale nezajima ty sraci... ja jsem v gangu...

  • thats so true!

  • wtf!!!

    if i want to wear gang caps, i will wear gang caps...if i want to start yelling: bloods, crips, LAK...i will do it

    if you're offended just dont buy it period!

    tf.crew FD~~> FZone

    peace

  • You're retarded. They're not saying you're not allowed to. They're saying they don't want these caps being sold in stores that anyone can go into (including young kids) and wearing these caps and getting beat up, cut, shot whatever because they didn't know what the cap signified.

  • ok.....this nigga that starts talkin at 6:00 needs to shut the fuck up......ur dumbass wit ur fucked up hair line....LOL.....so ur sayin if these hats get takin off the market...that lil kidds wont get hurt by gang violance....n y would u even let ur kidd walk round a badd hood....

  • those hat look aswome the hats aint a problum to way older kids

  • I ma mad that they just caught on to this lol , New Era has been doing this shit for years. Its not really all New era's fault, Street gangs gravitate to certain colors. Yo you guys really think snoop dogg wears steelers paraphanalia for, cause that's his set colors. The problem is not the hats its the individuals. Go and deal with the problem not the hats.

  • didnt even know but i got the latin kings hats

  • y'al bitches on here so stupid gangs target anybody that wearing the wrong color gangbanger or not.

  • ohhh ok...
