Beretta USA has announced the launch of its limited-edition America's 250th Anniversary Collection, a limited-edition series of commemorative baseball hats honoring the landscapes, wildlife, and sporting traditions that define all 50 states. The collection celebrates America's semiquincentennial while supporting the families of fallen or disabled service members and first responders through a partnership with Folds of Honor.
Built around the theme "50 States. One Legacy," the collection pays tribute to the diverse outdoor heritage that has shaped generations of American hunters, sportsmen and conservationists. Each hat design features original artwork inspired by a specific state's iconic game species, terrain, and hunting traditions from waterfowl-rich flyways and western big game country to Appalachian hardwoods and coastal marshlands.
"For nearly five centuries, Beretta has been defined by craftsmanship, heritage, and an unwavering commitment to those who depend on our products. As America celebrates its 250th anniversary, we're honored to recognize the values that unite our nation -freedom, service, and responsibility," said Patrick Mocorro, head of clothing & accessories for Beretta USA. "Our partnership with Folds of Honor reflects those shared values by helping provide educational opportunities for the families of America's fallen or disabled service members and first responders. It is our privilege to give back to those who have given so much."
The America's 250th Anniversary Collection will roll out in limited releases, with each state design offered as part of a collectible series celebrating the breadth of America's outdoor tradition. Designed for life in the field, at the range, and in everyday wear, each hat reflects Beretta's legacy of premium craftsmanship and functional design. A portion of the proceeds from Beretta.com for every 250th Anniversary Baseball Hat sold will benefit Folds of Honor, providing educational scholarships to the spouses and children of America's military and first responder heroes.
"We're grateful to the patriotic team at Beretta for its unwavering support of Folds of Honor and our recipients," said Lt Col Dan Rooney, founder and CEO of Folds of Honor. "Beretta's commitment to education will make a positive, life-changing difference for family members who have sacrificed so much and need and deserve our help."
The Beretta America's 250th Anniversary Collection is available now through Beretta USA dealers and at Beretta.com. Every purchase of the commemorative baseball hat not only celebrates a historic milestone in American history but also helps create educational opportunities for the families of those who have sacrificed in service to our nation.
