Never had anybody look twice at my Hoppes hat. If anyone has to ask what it is, I'll just tell them "chemicals".

IDGAF, blank hats are best, and not because of gray man shit.
Why would you advertise for a brand that isn't paying you to do so? |

Minor league baseball team hat. Or depending on the AO the local MLB /NHL or national felon league.
In a more rural area you can definitely get away with real tree or camo. In an urban setting I'd go with the above mentioned sports team. |

My favorite hat was a free merch vendor sample from some guy wanting us to put our logo on hats.
It was for some restaurant in the Florida keys I think. I would do something like that. Everybody travels. |

How about a hat with a morale patch:
“I overthink everyfuckingthing” I feel like you’ve been wearing a top hat that you’ve been applying mercury to. Where’s the Jurassic park gif? You get the video instead.  see nobody cares |

Something like a promo hat for a beer or liquor company; I've got a "Corona" hat somewhere...
And, a generic hunting/sportsmans company cap; like a Browning-logo cap, or a Cabelas cap, or something suitably generic like that. If you want to be super grey man, keep a couple of unstructured caps in your Maxpedition murse and swap them out whenever you feel like you've been made by the glowies. Also, bring several pairs of shoes. Lots of people strip off over shirts or pants whenever they do something nefarious and try to walk away; the quick change of clothes can throw off most people. No one ever swaps out their footwear though. Just as distinctive a lot of the time. |

If you're trying to be "gray man", you're probably try too hard.
Just get a couple caps with some local sports teams on em. If you're worried about being asked about your simple sports, then you probably have bigger issues than your hat. |

Quoted: What's baseball type hat that doesn't draw any attention? Sportsball hats will always have people who love or hate the team Branded hats can draw attention to fans of the brand Blank/Black hats look weird like you're trying to be a "gray-man" What say you all? Nobody is looking at people with blank ball caps and thinking they are trying to be all gray man. Nobody even pays attention to this stuff. |

Hats from the popular team where you live.
Random company hats are also quite nondescript. They don’t promote a cause, antagonize a fan base, etc. something like Al’s Plumbing and HVAC. It is not immediately recognizable or memorable. Not a memorable logo cap such as Carhartt or Oakley. |

In an urban setting I'd go with the above mentioned sports team. I live in a small, rural town, you are almost underdressed at Walmart if not wearing camo. When I do have to travel to the office for work in an upper class area, I sure get the looks if I am wearing a camo jacket! Sometimes I do wear one just to freak the pretentious old ladies and soccer moms. |

A plain ball cap doesn’t cause that reaction among normal people; just like a Carhartt hat doesn’t draw any attention.
