i fucking hate shallow baseball caps. that shit should come to the tops of my ears.

But should NOT be worn OVER the tops of your ears. WTF is up with that trend?

Looks like a bunch of Vulcans in disquise...

lol, i can't recall ever seeing that.

but a flexfit hat that comes close to the tops of my, uh, ear joints, or whatever you wanna call that part that connects them to your head, it tits. there is no superior headwear.

i like a boonie hat more for function, but you can't wear that around in public and look normal (yes, there are more 'hip' versions of the military boonie, but that looks queer).

no sir. it's the essence of a pure, functional hat for a human being.

as i said, hats with a wide full brim can be a little more functional, but it's hard to not look like a douche.

I haven't seen anybody but 1 friend of mine wearing one. Like, ever, in real life. I think they look awesome.

Chicks look good in hats, period.

I'm kinda bias, though.

*adjusts his baseball cap

Every bit of this.

I thought fedoras were the huge brimmed floppy pimp hats with the feather sticking out of them. But when I GIS'd, all I got were these mafia looking gangsta hats.

It's about the most un-functional a hat can be, really....a hot dome (they used to be wool, ffs!) with no real ventilation and a vestigial visor that does little to keep the sun out of your eyes...?


The Tilley hat is probably the ideal "pure, functional hat for a human being," followed closely by the venerable tuque.

I've got a whole pile of fedoras....they are great for trying to look nicer, but I run into the problem of not knowing where to put them when indoors....a soft bucket hat I can stick in my pocket, a Tilley-style hat I can tie somewhere by the strap or even sit on it. A baseball cap you can usually hang on a chair back or even sit on it in a pinch. Can't do any of this with a fedora, and they end up getting crushed/bent.

And yet they still look make you look like a white-trash douchebag. IMO.

?

Seriously? It's a baseball cap, everyone wears baseball caps. Wearing a baseball cap makes you look like a normal human being, unless your from NZ I guess. What next, you're gonna tell me that North and South America are all one giant continent?

Just this month a lot of kids in the school I work at have started wearing them, I feel like I'm in a mob movie walking down the hallway.

Black spandex pants on girls seems to be back this year too, and the guys wear skinny jeans with their undies hanging out. wtf.

My dad was a suave guy he wore one his entire adult life. I am thinking of getting a good one, except I am worried it might make me look a lot older than I am.

Baseball-style caps are stupid no matter what. They make you look like a redneck or dumbass fratboy.

I'm going to have to disagree with you there. I know a great many people who wear baseball style caps and look just fine. Now, if it's a "trucker" hat, or a flat wide brim cap, I'd agree with you.
