I am a big fan of hats. My hat collection is into the teens now, all Pittsburgh I might add.
So I been looking for a new hat like the past two months and I can't find any I like. They are all so tacky and just ugly. What happened to just the plain hats? Why must there be bling, rims, dog tags, guns, and every other riducalous symbol now?
Does anyone else hate all the new hats that are coming out?
Are you only looking at New Era hats? Because I just looked through some of the offerings on dogfunk, and while there are some hideous hats up, there are a good number of nice looking plain ones also.

I am kinda loyal to New Era because I love the way they fit, but I will check out the ones on Dogfunk though.......thanks.

I've seen a lot of normal ones, though most of them are just the plain color with a logo.

Check out Lids if you got one near you, or online. I ordered a Buckeyes hat from Lids online, and I must say its a kickass hat. I also am a hat whore.

yeah New Era hats are here to stay and you'll just have to get used to all the random crap they'll throw on them.
Man I just got my first one this summer cause I dont know how you guys can justify spending that DAM MUCH MONEY on headwear. At $35 a piece and you guys say you have what 8, somewhere in the teens even, do you know how much damn money you guys are spending?
The first one I got is a Boston Red Sox hat in Celtic colors
The next one or ones that I think I may be getting is some of the nomis ones: http://www.nomisdesign.com/index.php?p=detail&id=57&go=next
and they have more that aren't on the site, they just look like nice clean caps, and plus I'm not too big into sports anyway

Thats why you get the Lids Discount Card. It comes in handy. The Red Sox hat sounds sick.
Does anyone else hate how those damn Lid employee's constantly try to sell you that stain guard? I want to be like "No buddy, I don't want to see a demonstration for the 100th time. I want to get my f.uckin hat and get the hell outta here."

yeah I didnt get tricked into that but I was a sucker for the lids spray. The dude was like "smell your hat now" then he put in like two sprays and was like "now smell it" I was hooked cause I have long hair and I didnt want my hat smelling sweaty, plus it turned out to be a nice deodorizer after coming home from smoking

^ you should get this stuff called ozium. they sell them at advanced auto or stores of that type and they completely get rid of smells with only one spray.
Comes in handy for certain activities people like us take part in. its great for when your hot boxin and get pulled over, we sprayed a little of that and the cop didn't smell a thing and let us go.

My name is Rob and I have a 59fifty problem. I realized I had an addiction problem when my collection grew to near 20. I mainly wear my Tigers hats, but I also have minor league 59fiftys. Not to mention 4 or 5 trucker hats and flexfit board brand hats.

alot of the hats out right now are wack! i too am a big fan of hats....especially New Era. i probably have like 30. what pisses me off is how much they cost! i remember when fitteds only cost $20! the wack adjustable hats were like $15-17 and for an extra $3-5 you could cop the fresh fitted!

WHOA!!! now you crossed the line, the yankees are better and will always be better. Hell we even get the all star game next year which leaves the mets once again 2nd to the yankees.

the yankees have a better past, and a bigger salary to put up...and yea, theere are more yankees fans, but whatever, the mets are a whole new team with omar minyana and willie randolph......and u cannot deny this, and idk ive been to the city lately, and things are changing, the mets reveloution has begun, its a hostile takeover of NY

^^ no i do agree the mets are alot better than the team they used to be. Ive just been a yankees fan for as long as i can remember. Just this is the first time ive seen a person not embarrased to wear a mets hat in a while.

I feel ashamed to wear a Pirates hat, but I tell everyone I am not supporting the team, just the city.

thats all I do, to be honest I really dont give a **** about any team sports these days. If I'm reppin a teams new era hat it means I have respect for the town not the team

My quest for a new hat brought me to a different mall and different lids this weekend. What did I find? More ugly hats.
They did have a nice redneck selection at this one though. Mossy Oak camo University of Pitt and WVU hats. New Era is turning to sh!t.

A number of new era hats ARE pretty ugly and pointless, i'd have to agree with you.
