Buy me some peanuts and crackerjacks! It’s that time of the year: the start of the regular baseball season for Major League Baseball. After a great opening night on Sunday, we have a lot to look forward to. Thirty teams from the U.S. and Canada will pitch, swing, and run for the winning title in the World Series…but we’ve still got a whole season to watch play out before that!
Want something to show off your support for your sport? We have officially licensed MLB body jewelry featuring logos from the most recent champion, Kansas City Royals, as well as the team who claims the most titles: the New York Yankees (as well as many of the other great teams that are part of the MLB). Belly rings, industrial barbell earrings, belt buckles, and more are available on our site right now, so make sure you grab some gear to advertise your love for the game of baseball.
Don’t see your team? No need to fret! We have more licensed MLB jewelry coming in as the season progresses, so keep checking back to adorn yourself with some flair from your favorite baseball team!
