Two Ways to Top Off Your Indians Look
When you're heading to Victory Field or watching from home, the right headwear can set your game day style. The Indianapolis Indians Official Online Store offers two distinct options from '47 Brand: the Adult Red Batting Practice Script Fade Rope Hitch Adjustable Snapback Cap and the Adult Navy Home Clean Up Adjustable Visor. Both are officially licensed and made from quality materials, but they serve different preferences in fit, coverage, and look. Here's what you need to know to choose between them.
Fit and Coverage: Cap vs Visor
The most obvious difference is how much of your head each covers. The Batting Practice Cap is a full cap with a crown, curved bill, and four mesh mid and rear panels for breathability. The Clean Up Visor is an open-top design that leaves your head exposed while shading your eyes with a curved bill.
- Batting Practice Cap: Low crown, unstructured relaxed fit. The cap is adjustable with a plastic snapback closure, so it's meant to fit most adults. The crown is made from garment washed cotton twill (100% cotton crown and bill, 100% polyester back panels).
- Clean Up Visor: Low crown, unstructured relaxed fit. It uses an adjustable hook and loop fastener strap. The visor is made from 100% prewashed cotton, giving it a broken-in feel from the start.

Style and Breathability
The Batting Practice Cap features a two-tone design with a contrasting underbill, rope hitch detail, and raised embroidery on the front. Its four mesh mid and rear panels help with airflow, making it a good choice for warm-weather games when you still want full coverage. The Clean Up Visor skips the mesh but uses 100% prewashed cotton, which is lightweight and breathable. The open-top design maximizes ventilation, which can be a benefit on especially hot days.
Which One Should You Pick?
Choose the Batting Practice Cap if you want a full cap with a structured look, snapback adjustability, and the ability to keep your whole head covered. It's a classic ballcap style that works for most game day outfits. Choose the Clean Up Visor if you prefer an open-top design that keeps your head cooler, or if you want a more relaxed, broken-in look from the start. The visor is also a good option if you have longer hair or simply don't want the feel of a full cap. Both are one-size-fits-most, so the decision really comes down to coverage preference and style.
