New Era Cap?

kingy666 · 12 Aug 2011 at 15:46

I have a full head of hair so i don't feel the need to wear any head gear like the bald people.

Never wear a hat unless I'm on the golf course, and then only if it's sunny / ****ing with rain / freezing. Come to think of it, thats most of the time here!

I've never liked snapbacks and 5 panels are a bit too hipster for me.

Haha just saw your post about LRG. I wear a black LRG snapback

Also got one OBEY and one creep street.

These hats cost £25+, so they're not really for the "poor" as you say jimbob27.

£25 you say?

Big money.

If you wear these as a fashion accessory then unfortunately, you're a dodgy character.

I wear mine when I'm out on the tractor or combine.

Anyone who has to show off they can afford a £25 product by leaving the price label on, counts as poor in my book

Uhmm, who are you to say who is counted as 'poor' or not?..

There used to be two guys in my lectures that wore these... With the price tags etc still attached. I never got it?!

I've got a few and can post a pic of them later. My latest purchases are my Crooks and Castle and Mitchell & Ness snapback.

This, new eras are lame. All about snapbacks/5-panels.

You mean 59Fifty are lame and you prefer the 9Fifty? Or just don't like New Era?

Westyfield2 · 12 Aug 2011 at 18:14

I didn't even know what one is!

From the pics in this thread, I assume you mean a Chav baseball cap but with Chav++ of having a flat peak?

It was a generalization towards mainly the fitteds, but I don't own any new era. I think the peak is a bit too rounded but thats probably just me and they actually aren't.

I thought leaving the label/tag on was to imply you had stolen it?

Similar to those "gangsters" who walk with a hand down their trousers as if they are carrying a "piece" or wear a glove on one hand so as not to leave finger prints on their imaginary firearm.

domthecondom · 12 Aug 2011 at 19:52

i got around 7/8 i wear them now and again as I ride a motorbike so no point in hats but used to love them

PapaLazaru · 12 Aug 2011 at 19:54

nvm link too long.

Azza · 12 Aug 2011 at 19:55

There used to be a massive cap thread. But that was years and years a go, probably disappeared now.

asim18 · 12 Aug 2011 at 19:59

I'd never wear one of those. However a couple of my black friends do wear them and it does suit them, but yeah I wouldn't want to be seen dead wearing one of those.

cosmos55 · 12 Aug 2011 at 20:08

not interested at all. I'd rather look like a baseball player than a rapper/chav.

What I can't stand about them is how they leave the sticky gold label on the top of them, I just think it looks silly. Further still, there are some who even leave the price tag hanging on them.

It's so that others can see that it was made in a bonafide chinese sweat shop by children, as opposed to the fakes which ... oh wait...

hmm.

What does ... what does this mean? Is it like some crazy hat recipe? Oh God, I'm so old.

If it's any reassurance, I'm 19 and am in exactly the same boat...
