The 2026 MLB season kicked off last week, and Lids is celebrating in Springfield through “The Simpsons” x MLB x New Era collection.
Launching exclusively at Lids today, the collection features five headwear capsules: a 59FIFTY New Era style with the show’s signature cloud animation, a 59FIFTY design of Homer swinging a bat, an A-frame silhouette with the aforementioned cloud imagery, a teal and cream A-frame collection inspired by Krusty Burger and an A-frame assortment with team-specific animations tailored to each MLB franchise. Beyond headwear, the collection also features a graphic tee, where an MLB team is paired with one of the show’s characters across an array of designs. The full collection is available to shop at LidsHD.com, with prices ranging from $39.99 to $54.99.

“The Simpsons” celebrated its 800th episode earlier this year and has a movie sequel currently set for a July 2027 release. This isn’t the first time the show has been integrated into one of America’s favorite pastimes. Most notably, one of the NFL’s 2024 season “Monday Night Football” broadcasts turned into “The Simpsons Funday Football,” with gameplay stylized in “Simpsons” animation.
Lids, a sporting brand in its own right, has also previously released merchandise tied to the show. Highlights include a satin snap-up jacket, featuring Bart as a point guard, a varsity racing jacket to show allegiance to Team Simpson and red Angels of Peace shorts, complete with Homer’s donut halo. “The Simpsons” full collection is available to shop at Lids.com.
