From the brand: THE JACKET WORN BY THE ORIGINAL SENATORS
History:
So here's the thing about professional baseball teams from our nation's capital: The original Senators were not officially the Senators until 1956. They were called the Nationals officially until then, even though they were in the American League and most fans called them the Senators. Then, these Senators moved to greener pastures of Minnesota in 1961 and became the Twins. The District of Columbia was awarded a replacement franchise in the very same year. What to call them? Senators, of course!
These
Senators shuffled off to Texas in 1971, and RFK Stadium was dark until the former Montreal Expos arrived in 2005 and became - you guessed it - the Nationals.
Confused? Don't worry, all you need to know is that this style is an authentic Washington Senators satin windbreaker from 1959. Our new line of MLB vintage windbreakers are inspired by models from the 1950s and '60s, and use our classic cotton-backed satin.
