Unforeseen popularity among fans due to the risqué aesthetics of the Texas Rangers' design
In a bizarre turn of events, a design fail has taken the sports world by storm. The Texas Rangers, a well-loved Major League Baseball (MLB) team, found themselves in hot water due to an unintended raunchy translation in their latest hat design.
The hat in question was part of New Era's "Overlap 5950" cap collection, featuring a team's lettermark over its jersey wordmark. In this case, the design showcased the words "Texas" in varsity style lettering with the baseball team's iconic 'T' lettermark pasted over the 'x'.
However, the design was unintentionally raunchy due to the unfortunate translation. The word "tetas" in Spanish, which means "big melons", was the result, causing quite a stir among fans and leading to the hat's quick removal from the MLB Shop website.
Despite the controversy, some fans were disappointed that the design was removed, with many seeing the funny side of the situation. One fan, who identified as a lesbian and a Texas Rangers fan, expressed a need for the hat, stating, "the people LOVE Tetas!!!!!". Another Twitter user expressed a desire for the "Tetas" Texas Rangers hat, which was removed due to the unintended rude translation.
Interestingly, the tweet linked in this article expresses a desire for a hat that combines the user's passions for the Texas Rangers and "big melons". It seems that the demand for this controversial design is not entirely dead.
As for the designer behind the design fail, Zack Kimbro is the name credited with creating the controversial cap.
This incident serves as a reminder of the importance of careful design and the potential consequences of oversight. It's a lesson that both designers and brands would do well to heed.
