Looking for vintage Cavaliers snapback hats

[Double O]

As the title suggests, I am looking for vintage Cavaliers snapback hats. Preferably a brand like Sports Specialties with the script font on the hat.

Something like this:

I am willing to negotiate price. Thank you!

Etsy.com usually pops up with good shit if you keep an eye out. Maybe you'll like this? (Only thing avalible at the moment)

Thanks, cafemerald. I actually found a nice one with the old-school block logo like that, but there's something about the script font that's really appealing to me. I will keep an eye out for hats on that site. I just can't believe that some of these hats have asking prices of $60+ on eBay...

If anyone has any other options or hats they would be willing to sell please let me know!

I always buy sports clothing/hats for my Dad when i'm getting him a gift. Might wanna check out Mitchell & Ness' website:

Third hat listed on their site is a bit similar to the one you posted.

Thank you, maxREM. I have a couple Mitchell & Ness hats and I really like the quality and look of them. They made some really sharp ones a few years ago, especially the Cavs one, which looks like this:

I had the hardest time finding it online because these hats were so popular and just about every place was sold out, but I finally was able to get one off of Amazon and it's in the mail now

Fucking E Bay man... I have seen some on etsy as well..

I got a couple "dead stock" off E Bay last year...
Dead stock apparently means it's retro but never sold at the time it was made and someone held onto a shiton of them to sell when they came back in style.. Fashion is indeed cyclical... Get your bellbottoms ready.

When I was growing up in the 90's snapbacks were way cheaper than fitted hats were and thus I only ever owned a couple fitted Indians hats. I actually did not like the snapbacks back then. I now have several all Cleveland themed snapbacks and wear them all the time. Hell we didn't even call them 'snapbacks' back then.

I'll try to get some pictures and some of the stores I bought them from ASAP. Until then just know they are flippin' sweet, and you should be jealous..

Edit: I have one pretty sweet Mitchell and Ness Cavs hat but other than that I cannot stand how they put the sweetest designs on the 59-50 flat brim hats.. Fuck that shit. I like my hat to look like a hat not like I just bought it 30 minutes ago, tags included... Anything that is true "deadstock" is super sweet IMHO... Will get back on tomorrow with more info in regards to what store I got them from. I will say this, its as easy as typing Cleveland sports memorabilia/hats into the search bar on E Bay. The stores I got them from for the most part DID NOT specialize in Cleveland gear, although a few did, most were just retro clothing/accessory stores.

That would be fantastic, man. Thank you!

Meh, just took a quick look around and it's kind of hit and miss right now.

Basically the best advice I could give you is save a search like I did for my various interests..

One of them being, "cleveland vintage sports memorabilia"
you can refine the search to hats and or snapbacks

i did want to share one shirt I got a year or so ago that is not vintage but this guy does some great work. It is probably my favorite shirt right now..

Hope that worked. Ill work on getting some of my other gear on here ASAP.

Edit his store is watatees you can just type that into the search bar for e bay stores

The funniest thing is, name brand drives the price up like no other. On Etsy you can buy a starter snapback for around 10-20 bucks but on Ebay vintage items go for around 50, and I see starter hats for around 90
