I’ve called New Era up at their US office in and in their Canadian office. I’ve been trying to get my hands on a Montreal Canadiens 59Fifty fitted hat. The picture is below. I have also asked shops who stock New Era branded hats if they can order it for me. It ha a listed price of $35 on the website but I would easily pay $50 for it.
The best line from the rep in Canada was “Actually we don’t sell that hat to Canada because there isn’t a market for it” to which I replied, “What? There isn’t a market for the Montreal Canadiens hat IN CANADA?!” Obviously someone was smokin’ crack that day.
If anyone knows where I can get my grubby mitts on this hat I would be stoked. More Montreal Canadiens must haves are the Canadiens Legends: Montreal’s Hockey Heroes and The Montreal Canadiens Hockey Team.

Yeah man, but they are all ugly! Except the one above which I own!
Anyway, they don’t even ship to Canada, it’s pretty lame not shipping hockey hats, ESPECIALLY Montreal Canadiens hats to Canada. I lived in Montreal when I was trying to get this hat, the place where hockey was born and invented. I couldn’t believe it when they said they couldn’t ship here because “there was no market”.
Great looking hat! So any luck finding it? I’d love to get one myself and ASAP so I can show my colors for the Habitants!
