Wearing one around here could be considered probable cause to search for meth. They are the only type of people I see wearing them.

Many of the guys on the Velocity channel wear them. Most have stupid mad skills and are remarkable artisans. Why no love in Arf for flat bill hats?

Oh well shit, that settles it right there.

Everybody should wear one if those guys do.

If you are wearing a flatbill hat, I’m going to assume you are a fucktard. Is that stereotyping? Yes. I’m still OK with it. Same thing for Tapout and Ed Hardy (and especially cheap knock-off version) t-shirts.

I bend my bill so much that I get negative comments. Only time it goes out is when sunglasses require it. If in shop/field or otherwise it may even go backwards

And I'm over thirty

Go fuck yourself....

Are flat bill hats douchy?

Absolutely!

I wear 39Thirty fitted hats. Best fitting hat for my money.

However, I have one hat that is a flat bill. It's the Denver Nuggets draft day hat. It only came in one style (when I purchased mine). I've tried my best to shape the damn thing and I can't get it to stay.. at this point, I'm a grown man, I don't really care what other men think of my hat, so I rock it when the mood fits.

The New Era 5950 is the same hat worn by major league baseball teams. It also happens to be the one most often worn flatbill style. Whether or not it is douchey really comes down to how you wear it. I personally love them, but I also remove the stickers and bend the bill slightly. I also don't have a closet full of them and teams I don't care about.

They look absolutely retarded. Especially with the holographic stickers still on them from the store. I remember when I first started seeing them on the airplane from New York, lower middle-class New Yorkers from Staten Island or Brooklyn or the Bronx. Wearing their favorite baseball players shirts and too much cheaper jewelry. Exuding a lot of class, and all of it low.

Posted: 9/7/2018 10:27:41 PM EST

Nope. Don't like the look on me other others, but IDGAF what you wear. Wear what you want, but don't get yer feels hurt if I point and laugh.

Same around here.

Dipshits advertise their stupidity. It's rude to ignore them, when they work so hard to self identify.

What's fun, is the migrant labor folks, that buy knock off hats, and try to get the stupid Flat bill to NOT be a flat bill..the sweat stains separate them from the dipshits.

The hat that is worn on the field is the low profile version of the 5950. Low crown instead of high crown and a slight factory curve in the bill that can be curved more if you choose. It's my favorite hat to wear.

ETA: Like this one. Slight curve to the bill and the crown is snug on my head and not sticking up two inches.

Make sure you leave the price tags on those flat brimmed hats, so you can trade them in on a new one in a couple of weeks.

The crown is an important distinction. Like you, they’re the only hats I really wear.

I won't wear this myself but I appreciate that those who do wear them so I can judge them. It's like in nature, certain things scream stay away, leaves of three, bright colored mushrooms, the sound of a rattlesnake......

Your poll is broken. You can vote for multiple entries.

Flat brimmed hats aren't inherently douchey, but douchebags are the primary demographic attracted to them unfortunately.
