I feel like anybody who still wears fitteds wears jeans the same cut as Allen Iverson's.
And even he switched up to snapbacks.

I've always liked dad hats and strapbacks more than snapbacks. I still wear fitteds though.

i posted this in the new era thread but i think it serves being in this thread as well...
fyi...
if you wanted some evidence as to why New Era on-field caps have such a high friggin crown...
"...emblems stand tall and give the caps their handsome, boxy looks. That boxiness is important, says New Era president Dave Koch, because it turns the various and sundry head shapes of players and fans into a phrenologically consistent team. "The caps have gotten larger," says Koch, whose grandfather founded New Era in 1920. "By making it larger, we've tried to create, like, an image, so that once the caps are on the guys' heads, they all look alike, they all look like a team. It doesn't fit like a skull cap anymore, but sits up on his head..."

If it isn't a Starter snapback, the price isn't even worth it

other than a raiders snapback outlier, most snapback prices collapsed when M&N & new era mass produced snapback for this generation.

Its nicknames that die out. People never really stop wearing certain fashions.

Fitteds will always be in style to me but then I only do hats with sports logos. Anything ironic/meme is trash in my opinion.

What about a hat with nothing on it? Or a simple polo or tommy logo?

A totally plain hat is too boring, what's the point? I could do a Polo one as long as it had the leather strap or a black Gucci.

So because I live in Wilmington I don't know what the urban community is doing?
I just spent a week in Brooklyn and the only person I saw rocking a fitted looked like he was rocking some South Pole jeans and an Ecko shirt. I'm also in Charlotte or Raleigh pretty often....where do you live in NC that you know what the urban community is wearing more than me?
