Red Republican Party GOP Baseball Cap

Show your Republican pride with this low-profile, unstructured red GOP cap, featuring an embroidered logo and "EST 1854" text.

The Grand Old Party (GOP) traces its roots back to the fight against slavery. Founded in 1854, the Republican Party was built by everyday Americans who believed in "Free soil, free labor, free speech, free men'' a rallying cry that united abolitionists and Western settlers seeking opportunity free from government overreach.

By 1856, the Republicans had become a national force, nominating John C. Fremont for president. Just four years later, with Abraham Lincoln,s election in 1860, they firmly established themselves as a major political party. The name "Republican" was chosen to symbolize equality and reflect the ideals of Thomas Jefferson,s Democratic-Republican Party.

Wear this hat as a nod to history and a statement of enduring Republican values!
