There are two proper ways to wear a baseball hat. You either have the brim facing forward or the brim facing backwards.
The current rage in some of the younger circles seems to be wearing your hat cocked to one side or the other. If you do this, this makes you look like an lazy, dope smoking, jobless, sagging, idiot.
I am embarassed to see people wearing their baseball hats this way. If you want to look like a dumbass, criminal, rapper, hip-hop artist, gangster go right ahead. But if you actually want people to believe that you are going somewhere in life, you might want to show it by proving to us that you know how to put a baseball hat on.

You’ve got it all wrong. And you’re being extremely close-minded as well. The way you wear your hat in no way says anything about who you are or where you’re going in life. Me, for example, I am young, and anytime I go out and wear a hat, it’s kicked to the side. If you want to go even farther I have hair most people don’t agree with (It’s black and blonde, the back and sides are short, but my bangs come down to chin level, and they cover up my right eye). Most people look at me and think that I’m some kid that’s never gonna go anywhere, however, I’m a member of MENSA, and I currently make around $125,000 a year. If you ask me I went somewhere in life. Don’t judge someone by how they look or dress, it’s just fashion.

I sometimes turn the bill to the side but only to block the sun

What a croc! If your biggest complaint is that someone wears their hat a certain way consider yourself very lucky. We have a war going on, the economy is tanking, millions of jobless people wondering where their next meal is coming from, and a housing market that is spiraling out of control….and by God, you have issues with the way people wear THEIR hats…Wake up!!!

You don’t need to wear a hat properly to look like your going somewhere in life. I do wear hats, but i refuse to wear it side ways, because it doesn’t look good like that on me. When I see other people do it, I just laugh and move on. Its not you whose wearing it like that, so who cares. Its just a hat, but if it was a really, really nice looking hat, then just tell the guy to put it on correctly. =P But all in all, its the hat buyer’s choice.
And plus if you are going to flame on hip hop and rappers and how they wear hats like that, get better facts. Cause this topic is making you look like a fool. And all the comments are against you.

What on Earth makes you believe certain hats should only be worn forwards or backwards? Are you so limiting in your beliefs that life should only be lived how it was lived in the past?
I suppose you are unaware that hip hop is one of the most direct forms of [music-based] communcation that exists? I know people who are still alive because of hip hop.
I doubt you will be a help to humanity for as long as you hold sheltered views like these.
Hats worn to the side do not MAKE PEOPLE “lazy, dope smoking, jobless, sagging, idiot”s. It is YOUR CHOICE TO PERCEIVE them this way. Take some responsibility for your actions. If you release yourself from this hate, you will be more free. Start with your subconsciousness.
Please try to change your ignorance, or if not, leave the rest of us alone.

As I understood your perspective about wearing a hat and the way you explained then I am afraid you are misjudging the reality. Let’s assume for a moment that wearing hats means going somewhere in life if that is the case then how many successful leaders, presidents, managers and even other ordinary people around you who are having a successful life are wearing hats!!!! What if I take off your hat, would I consider that you lost the path of your success in life. Reconsider your viewpoint objectively
