ST. LOUIS (KMOX) - If you're from St. Louis and proud, there's a new hat that you may love. A line of hats was just released by New Era called "Local Market" that feature area codes, symbols and slogans for every Major League Baseball city.
Here's the St. Louis Cardinals version, which is available for $39.99:
Not seen in the photo above, one side of the cap has "St. Louis, Gateway to the West" embroidered above a logo for the 2011 World Series – the last championship for the Cardinals.
The hat has a pair of toasted ravioli on the back along with a cutout of the state of Missouri and year that St. Louis joined the National League, 1892. However, they were known as the St. Louis Browns originally.

The hat also has a picture of the Gateway Arch, on the front and the "314" St. Louis area code.
The hats haven't been well-received by all, with many pointing out missing area codes, some say the ravioli don't look toasted and the clouds behind the arch make it look like the city is smoldering.
The Cardinals' home stadium is located just minutes away from the 618 area code in Illinois and it's missing 636 for parts of nearby St. Louis County, St. Charles County and Jefferson County. For the Kansas City Royals, the hat doesn't have the "816" area code nor does it mention the team's 2015 World Series victory.
You can see all the hats, here.
