FORT WAYNE DAISIES.
Part of the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League, the Daisies helped shape a defining chapter in the game—one that still resonates today.

THE STORY.
The Fort Wayne Daisies were part of the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League, a groundbreaking chapter in the game’s history that expanded who baseball was for—and who it could reach.
​
Playing in Fort Wayne during the 1940s and early 1950s, the Daisies brought high-level competition and national attention to the city. The league itself was created during World War II, but its impact lasted far beyond it, giving women a platform in professional baseball at a time when few opportunities existed.
Today, the Daisies represent more than a team—they represent a moment when the game grew, evolved, and opened its doors to a new generation of players and fans.
​
This collection draws from that history, bringing it back to be worn today.
