Do you wear a head cover on a regular basis? Perhaps a fedora like Bugsy in the 30's or your grandpa on a rainy day? A cowboy hat? A straw hat while cutting grass?
My first year playing little league baseball started an addiction to the baseball cap. At the time it meant bragging about the fact I was a baseball player for the "optomist club O's"……
It led to becoming a baseball cap wearing person. So much so I got booted out of school once for wearing one in a class after repeated warnings. One gal I dated dumped me over it. "You and those dam baseball hats".
In the late 70's and through the 80's it seemed every ball cap was really tall. Like 5" tall. In the early 2000's they seemed to be really short. The olive drab SureFire ball cap was really short. These days you can have either or in between. I like the in between kind.
All cloth please. A mesh back is good for venting, sure. But on a rainy day it feels kinda weird to have cool water hitting just the back of your head.
Flex fit give me a headache. There's a flex tech version now with an adjustable strap at the back. The velcro adjuster allows that just right fit where the snap kind can at times cause it to be both too big and too small.
Some ball caps fit just right from day one due to a slight oval bias. The circle kind take some time to get used to. Same with ones that are "too oval" bias.
My older brother (RIP) never bought a ball cap yet always wore one. He'd wear one until it was absolutely used up but he kept a brand new one for weddings and funerals. Yup, he'd wear a ball cap to a funeral so he could pull it off while praying.
