Those are bent, not flat



Those are on someones head. The hat in the OP, with no bending will look like that when worn.

Yeah...it's true. You can bend the really flat ones, but there is no doubt that the 47 Brand and Franchise hats are bent on the shelves while the New Era ones (and I guess Nike for NCAA) are mostly flat on the shelves and that appeals to different tastes.

I'm not saying you can't bend a hat's bill, but I am saying that they appear on the shelves as different styles on purpose.

I personally don't like New Era hats because they sit too high on the head and the bills, once bent, don't look as good as the Franchise or 47 Brand hats.

That's just my opinion. Might smell like poo to others, but so what.

There is a way to bend the New Era 59Fifty hats. Check out this guy on youtube who goes through how to bend these hats.

ETA: for clarification...i plan on bending the bill. i'm not an animal


Those bills are reinforced with space age nanomaterials. You can bend it all you want and it snaps back into its original flat configuration.

Bumping this because I can't find the non-mesh version anywhere anymore, even though it looks like the team still wears them for games.

Anyone know where I can still find this:

does anyone prefer this one...without the mesh?
