For the same reason you old guys wear black socks and shorts....:shifty:

 

...because both are totally stupid to do? I guess I can see that... :pointlol:

 

Old guys can have the "swagger" too.

 

Can't help you man, I think it looks dumb too.

 

I think it looks dumb as well. to each his own though

 

wearing a baseball hat backwards or cocked to the side looks pretty lame to me. what the hay, what do i know, i've been creasing mine and wearing it forward for over 55 years.

 

I just don't understand the sticker :dunno:

Wear your hat whichever way you please (forward for me, thanks) but the sticker is stupid.

 

cause it looks brand new, and since you wear brand new things, you must have cash

 

i wear my hat like that......its more comfortable imo.....and looks better.....just a style

 

It's just fad,my friend.I'm sure by next baseball season it will be something else.
The sticker thing? I can't explain.I'm old like you..:pity:
There are people I work with that leave the tag on their boots until it falls off.

 

You "ARE" stylin',bro. :knucks:

 

Fitted hats are supposed to be like that.

 

I personally hate the sticker thing and i dont care for the straight brim. I like my brim with a bend to it. Thats why i can't stand MLB hats because their hats are horrible to bend. Their brims are terrible.

 

turn it a little to the side and it fits great. sometimes i wear my hat inside out.

 

rally cap?

 

no it doesn't.

 

i think they keep the sticker on so they can take it back and get a new hat next week.

 

I wear it like that too. Matter of preference and the type of environment you live in definitely plays a part. At school if someone would show up with a hat that had a folded brim they would never hear the end of it. I think it looks a little better but they aren't meant to be worn for recreation or work imo its to go with what your wearing. Its a style.

 

Just a style, like others said. My hair is shaggy so baseball caps don't really go well for me. However when I had short hair, I wore a hat backwards mainly because it felt more comfortable... Unless of course my objective was to get the sun out of my eyes...

I'm really not a fan of the straight brim though... However I agree with Sick, it is more comfortable to wear your hat the way he does if you don't fold the brim...

 

its a pretty silly look, imo. in fairness, those hats have crappy brims that dont bend well, but thats not an excuse for not buying a hat with a better brim

guys who wear their hats tilted to the side dont realize that walking around like that sets off the douchebag alarm to everyone else around them. maybe its better that way

 

kinda looks like you were loaded and in a hurry when you put your hat on as you went out the door!

 

he's got it pulled down tight.. it's the shape of his punkin' head that makes it sit like that... maybe :shifty:

 

i was loaded......but in no hurry.....i was actually laughing hysterically before and after the picture....but got serious for the flash haha....

and yes marty.....my head looks that way :lol:

 

Same reason they wear their pants hanging down so low their underwear (and, in some cases, even more than that) is showin'. They think it looks cool now. But, one day, maybe twenty years from now, they'll look back at a picture of themselves dressed like they are, or wearing a baseball cap as you've described, and they'll ask themselves "why in the hell did I do that? I looked like such an idiot!" And...they'll be right.

I know I've looked back at some of the fashion statements I made as a teenager, or a young man, and thought the same of myself. But, truthfully...I tried to do my own thing. I tried to be my own person. I never really followed the crowd, or tried to emulate what was "in" at the time. And, to me...that's a big difference.

Many of today's fashion statements are simply too, well...too stupid to follow IMO. Yet, many do. Whether it's wearing your pants hanging so low your a** is hanging out, or wearing a baseball hat that makes you look like your head is too big for your body, I just can't imagine doing something, so well...stupid. But, hey...that's JMHO.

 

i know for myself.....i got into wearing my hat that way around 2003 (i was 16) because i absolutely loved watching dontrelle willis pitch for the marlins......my favorite player....and he wore his hat like that.....and i played ball....so when i did, i wore my hat like him as well. and it has stuck.....i don't even think about it anymore.....when i throw a cap on.....thats how i wear it....its 2nd nature. and honestly i could care less about how people "look at me" cause its my style....its comfortable for me....and iam fine with it. i am sure there are plenty of flaws on everybody in here with their "style" to each his own :up:

 

I'm 35.

I will never complain about a clothes fad, because like G-man said, I've looked back and thought, what the hell was I thinking.

What I don't understand, is how older folk, who've worn stupid crap when they were young, take the new generation to task, after they admit they did the same thing.

 

pretty soon they'll get the word. the cops just love em wearing there pants like that. kinda hard to run with your pants around your knees.:yes:

 

there most certainly is not.

 

It's the look born out of Rap music.

The underwear hanging, out shorts halway down the arse, gold toothes and a tilted straight brim hat.

IMO, In actuallity it tells the world that you embrace and celebrate ignorance but the followers of the music don't think about it. They see 50 pesos wearing it and want to be like him. That's really all the thought that goes into people deciding to follow with the trend unfortunately.

 

not all people that wear their pants like that will ever have a reason to be chased by cops........

 

That's pretty harsh bro, I don't support that statement at all.

 

I didn't expect to gain favor with the statement.
The bottom line is that it's what I believe the whole genre of rap represents and this "fashion trend" comes directly from it.

Sorry but "big hair" in the 80's was also a trend but it wasn't one that celebrated violence, capping cops, rapin beyatches, celebrating crime, completely disregarding education, promoting racial angst, etc.

 

werent alot of songs in the 80s that set fashion trends about breaking the law, doing drugs, partying all day and night, drinking, speeding, disobeying your parents, having sex with women etc etc?

gimme a break dude

 

old people can be so ignorant sometimes. just go drink your coffee and watch matlock.

i can do it too

 

I wear my underwear inside out so I can get 2 days out of them:shifty:

 

lmao

 

The Hat does not bother me, its the pants below the knee that I can't understand.
