Hideous. Simply hideous.

Snapbacks need to die. I hate that they came back.

Pro Bowl hats are fitted. Can't say the others aren't snapbacks, however.

Snapbacks were cool at first when people who wore caps before then had them. Now you have kids whose cap collections are only snapbacks. And they are idiots because the trend will be completely dead soon and you'll be stuck with a bunch of gay hats with plastic snaps on the back.

They're 5950 fitted caps. Marcel Dareus was on Tim Brando's radio show today and they touched on it briefly.

Nobody ... I mean nobody ... circles the wagons like The Buffalo Bills

New Era is an actual hat company.

They know how to make good-looking designs.

I like this.

We are aware.... :lol:

As for the Hats, not too impressed. I'd assume they would have done something with the team wordmarks, moreso than just a Generic Block font. The "watermark" styled logos on the caps is a good idea in theory, but the execution just seems a bit strange...

They have some more info on the website. No pictures of the new caps but a countdown to the draft and info on all the hats they are working on for the NFL

Compared to the reebok ones, I'm already getting a "shut up and take my money" feeling about these. Here's hoping the Patriots ones look good!

a million times better than what reebok put out...with them it seemed like their designs alternated between nascar and faux retro.

I'm guessing the bolder block font was used so that they'd show up better on TV during the draft and in the countless photos taken of the players shaking the commish's hand, etc... They likely weren't going for subtle with these.

Not really my style of hat, but well done.

Here's hoping that the training or on-field caps look like the ones used for the Pro Bowl (meaning, like these).

Here's the best part. The Pro Bowl caps were polyester instead of wool. I'm gonna be so broke by the start of next season.
