Is there such a thing as a low-crown or low-profile LSU baseball hat?

Mates, I can't wear a high crowned fitted cap like Yordando Ventura or Colin Kaepernick - it's just wrong. I recently discovered New Era's low crown caps so I can look swaggy and cool in an appropriate manner like Brett Gardner or Matt Ryan, but the problem is that it doesn't seem as though New Era makes a similar option for collegiate baseball caps.
Here are picture visuals...
High Crown caps that I will not be able to rock swaggily:
Low Crown caps for swaggy but not quite SO swaggy baws like myself:
So without wasting $35 is there a way to get an LSU baseball cap is fitted but that isn't "high crowned"?
LINK
All of the authentic New Era caps on Lids.com specify that they are "high crowned", but it sure seems like most of the LSU baseball baws are rocking low crowned types favored by Ichiro and Gardy and Matty Ice.
TIA

unfortunately, the fad of high crown, flat bill has flooded the market. we just have to wait this fad out. much like im doing with IPA's taking over my pubs and beer fests. try twins enterprises ('47 brand). idk if you like the structured front or unstructured. me, i like mine low crown, curved bill and broken in. nike and new era make the baseball hat, but theyre all gay arse flat bill.

I thought this was true, but after clearly spotting Matt Ryan rocking a low-crowned fitted Falcons hat on the sideline of the Superdome last Thursday, I did a Google search and found that New Era now sells low-crown for every MLB and NFL teams. I got my Brewers and Saints in the mail yesterday and I love them. Now I want to add LSU but I don't see that as an option. Yet. Just hoping that maybe there's an alternate supplier or option.

They used to sell them in the store by mikes a cage. Granted this was a couple years ago when new era still made the caps instead of Nike.

Wait, so do you think I found it and this is it? It's from a sketchy oldish site and it's New Era (plus on sale) BTW - thanks to you and Higgins both

Here's a visual - high crown is on the left low crown is on the right. It's actually way more dramatic on my head than on Carpenter's head in the pics.

Kaepernick is wearing a high crown and Russell Hustle and Bustle is wearing a low crown

I've got a shallow forehead, too. I need the low-crown hats. I've got a Les Miles-style hat right now that I hate to wear because it looks just as bad on me as on Les.

The Franchise by '47 is my go to hat. Also Bridgestone makes a great LSU hat as well.

Franchise 47 fitted hats are great. Their stretchy one size fits no one hats suck - but they all do.
Nike has gotten into that game in their high-end hats and they suck.

I was going suggest the Franchise 47 hats as well. Have them for all of my favorite teams.

See those are too fratty for me - the high profile flat bills that Kaepernick wears are one extreme and these fratty ones that KAs wear while spitting their dip and hitting on girls who are far too hot for them to talk to but for the fact that they're KAs are the other extreme IMO
In the pics I posted the ones that Matt Ryan and Russell Wilson are wearing are the perfect hat and style for me - not too ghetto and not too frat - right in the middle... just hoping that the LSU one I pulled the trigger on matches.
Thanks for the suggestions and feedback

even the "old style" hats sit up like an inch off the top of your head. it looks ridiculous.
last good hat i got was a stretchy fitted saints cap i bought in 2011. after that they all suck

Looking for a new hat, so did a search and ran across this thread.
Did you ever find anything? I'd like a hate like you're talking about with lettering like on this hat HAT, But that just goes straight across and not in the interlocking diagonal pattern. I've searched and haven't found any. Does anyone know if any like I'm describing are sold anywhere?
Also does anyone know where to get a more old school LSU hat, ebay maybe? Anywhere else to look?
