Are 59FIFTY Hats Adjustable? Fit Explained
Share
Are 59FIFTY hats adjustable? No, the 59FIFTY is a true fitted cap, sized to the head with no strap or snap, so it does not adjust. If you want an adjustable New Era with the same look, that is the 9FIFTY snapback. Speedy Pros Hats, family-owned in Brandon, FL since 2009, customizes both with no minimums and a free digital proof.
The 59FIFTY’s fitted design is the whole point: a clean, unbroken back and a tailored fit that wears sharp. The trade-off is that you have to know your size. For anyone who wants to skip sizing, New Era makes the adjustable 9FIFTY with the same structured crown and flat brim, plus the curved 9FORTY strapback.
Speedy Pros Hats, a family-owned custom hat company serving the Tampa Bay area, has decorated hundreds of thousands of caps for teams, businesses, and events over more than 15 years. Every hat is decorated here in the USA, any order size is welcome, and free artwork setup is included on orders of 12 or more.
- 59FIFTY. Fitted, sized, not adjustable.
- 9FIFTY. The adjustable snapback version.
- Same look. Both share the structured flat brim.
- Customizable. We decorate both with your logo, free proof.

Are 59FIFTY Hats Adjustable?
No. The 59FIFTY is a true fitted cap: it is sized to the head and has no adjuster on the back, so it does not tighten or loosen. That fitted, full-fabric back is what gives it the clean, tailored look worn on the field and in streetwear. To fit one, you pick your head size. Our fitted-fit guide and New Era size chart walk you through measuring.
If you want an adjustable cap with the same New Era look, choose the 9FIFTY. It keeps the structured crown and flat brim but swaps the fitted back for an adjustable snapback, so one size fits most. Our fitted vs snapback guide compares the two directly.
New Era’s other adjustable styles are the 9FORTY curved strapback and the 39THIRTY stretch-fit. So if adjustability matters, the 59FIFTY is the one style to skip; the 9FIFTY is its one-size twin.
Fitted vs Adjustable New Era
Here is how the fit differs across the main styles.

| Style | Adjustable? |
|---|---|
| 59FIFTY | No, fitted and sized |
| 9FIFTY | Yes, snapback |
| 9FORTY | Yes, strapback |
| 39THIRTY | Stretch-fit, sized by band |
The 59FIFTY is fitted and not adjustable; the 9FIFTY and 9FORTY adjust; the 39THIRTY stretches. Only the 59FIFTY requires picking a head size.
So for an adjustable New Era, reach for the 9FIFTY or 9FORTY. For the fitted look, the 59FIFTY is the pick, just plan your size. We show your logo on your proof either way.
Why Fitted, and When to Skip It
A fitted cap trades adjustability for a cleaner fit. Because there is no strap or snap, the back is unbroken and the crown sits sharp, which is exactly the look the 59FIFTY is known for. The catch is sizing: each cap fits one size range, so a group order means collecting head sizes. When that is worth it, the fitted look pays off; when it is not, the adjustable 9FIFTY is the easy call. For most teams, that trade-off between a tailored look and simple one-size ordering is the whole decision.
Either way, both caps brand cleanly on a firm front. You can customize them through our custom New Era range and see your logo on a proof first, or start a New Era order now.

Customizing a 59FIFTY or 9FIFTY
Both share a firm, structured front, so a centered front embroidered logo reads crisp on either. We digitize your art and size it on your proof.
A patch or 3D puff works on both, and the flat brim on either leaves room for a visor wordmark.
Thread and patch color set the tone. Whichever cap you pick, everything is locked on your free proof before we run it.
Want adjustable? Pick the 9FIFTY. If you like the 59FIFTY look but need an adjustable, one-size cap, the 9FIFTY is its snapback twin, same crown and brim, no sizing required.
Who Asks If 59FIFTYs Adjust
Anyone deciding between a fitted and an adjustable cap, or planning a group order who wants to skip sizing. The answer shapes the pick: fitted 59FIFTY for the tailored look, adjustable 9FIFTY for one-size ease.
If you are comparing the two for a team, our fitted vs snapback and true-to-size guides help, and the New Era buying guide covers the full lineup.

Whichever you choose, one logo covers the run, and we proof it first so the cap matches your brand.
How to Order a 59FIFTY or 9FIFTY
Pick your cap and colors, add sizes if you go fitted, send your logo, and approve the free digital proof. There are no minimums, with free artwork setup on orders of 12 or more, and every cap is decorated in the USA.
Browse our custom New Era caps, or start a custom order and we will proof it first. Pricing and the production window are shown on the quick order page.
Expecting a 59FIFTY to adjust. It will not; it is fitted and sized. If you need adjustability, order the 9FIFTY instead, or gather head sizes before ordering fitted caps for a group.
What to Send and What You Get
Send your logo as a vector file when you can — an AI, EPS, or PDF — and we set it up for decoration. A high-resolution PNG works too, and if the art needs cleanup we handle it. Free artwork setup is included on orders of 12 or more, so most orders start with no setup cost at all.
We match your brand colors on the free digital proof, where you see the cap and the logo together before anything is made. Nothing goes into production until you approve that proof, so the first New Era 59FIFTY or 9FIFTY hats off the line is the one you signed off on — colors, size, and placement included.

Reordering is simple. Your setup stays on file, so a repeat run comes back consistent with the first. With no minimums you can start with a single piece or a small batch to confirm the look, then scale up once the design is proven, all from the same shop and the same quick order page.
Every order includes that free proof and our help getting the art right, so you are never guessing at the result. If something is off on our end, we make it right or remake the order on a production error — that is the whole point of proofing before production, to catch anything before a hat is made rather than after.
