doesn't bother me really, even new eras look good on some people backwards.

I disagree about the snapback bit, but would add one caveat: Only baseball style caps should be worn backwards... Wearing a flat or ascot cap backwards looks stupid enough (unless you're Samuel L. Jackson), never mind derbies, trilbies or fedoras, lol.

EDIT: I own one of these that I never wear any direction other than backwards...

I don't wear caps but they only look good on me if they're backwards snapback baseball caps like OP described. The only hat I even own is of a nuclear submarine project in Russia (which is a pretty sick hat).

I obviously know nothing about hats because I have no idea what any of these words mean. :confused:

I wear snapbacks but only because molded jackhammers don't fit when I carry frontwards lumber-tumbers.

Same. I could probably only name about 5 types of hat.

I'm the opposite, I'll wear a fitted backwards but never a snapback, the plastic tends to irritate my skin and I don't think I can pull it off.

That way you get the awesome 'snapback' indentation in your forehead to prove later on when the hat is off that you were cool earlier.

One of the pictures pretty much says it all- guy squinting and shading his eyes against the sun while wearing a backwards baseball cap. I've seen this on the street. Someone told me that this is a Fashion Statement. Well, that statement seems to be Not Clear on the Concept, or perhaps The Back of my Neck is Exquisitly Sensitive.
