"Men what do backwards baseball caps mean ? "
Sun Oct-18-15 12:31 PM by ndibs

          

Asking bc y'all seem to pay a lot more attention to men's style than woman as evidenced by the beard post. Is this sartorially acceptable if you're not a baseball player on the field?

I tend to subconsciously associate this look with douchebaggery, fratboy culture and late 30 early 40 yo guys stuck in the 90s.

Do you or your friends rock this look? If so why? Doesn't it make more sense to put the brim to the front for sun protection and to shade your face?

or the front rim of the hat can get kinda uncomfortable on your forehead.

its a good idea to switch it to the back, temporarily, for relief.

it's not a practical position for the hat and should only be done temporarily.

Maybe you're out in the sun and you wanna protect the back of your neck or you've sweated the fuck out of the front side of your hat and watch to switch. Maybe your hat feels tight (backwards it has slightly more room for whatever reason). But doing it for any other reason than situational comfort, yes, you are probably still listening to Smash Mouth.

And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

Not every look out seen in person or photographed in print signals some sociological or fashion rule trend. Instagram and the many other social tools that capture fashion makes us forget that some people wear what they want. Period. A backwards hat could simply be more comfortable than the brim to the front. Really not that deep. Really.

I have never known a backwards hat to "MEAN" anything. Just another way to wear a hat.
