Pretty funny how many here are triggered by flat bill caps. I’m a slight curve guy, but I can think of several things men wear much worse than the hat bill:

-5 inch inseam shorts (ghey)
-the big Apple Watch
- oversized watches in general
-Nike dunks in general but especially in formal situations
-frat flip hair as an adult
-silicone wedding bands outside of work (grow up)
- Oversized water cups like a woman
-a hard part in their haircut
-flip flops not around a pool/beach
-long back pocket wallets
-bow ties
-seersucker suits
Is it safe to put - any grown man over 30 wearing crocs on this list, or will I get banned?

There has been one customer that I sold hats to that specifically requested flat bill only. He runs an auto shop that specializes in the little drifter cars. When I asked, he straight said its an age thing. Young dudes will wear a flat
I'm sure they wear them over their ears too. I have no words for such things...

silicone wedding rings are a problem for you? since when did a man care about what a wedding ring was made of other than what he had to lay out for his wife's? and you missed hat on backwards after the age of 18 (12 preferred).

Agree with most of these but flip flops are year round casual footwear down here!

We are on the same wavelength except for the ring thing. It's the only rubber I wear.

I take umbrage to the flip flops! Any footwear where I don’t have to bend down to put on is in my closet

Growing up there was a common denominator with the kids that had flat bills. They were all a little slow. I’m not talking about running speed.

It’s not a problem and if you do a job where you need it, I 100% understand. Or a specific activity. But when you’re dressing at least decent have something better than a rubber band on your finger. It’s the crocs of wedding rings.

Only downside of flip flops is urinals. There’s nothing worse than peeing at a baseball game while wearing flip flops and you make the mistake of standing next to a kid’s urinal, and you start to feel the splatter of another man’s urine spraying your toes

-5 inch inseam shorts (ghey) I’m short, anything else looks like board shorts!
-the big Apple Watch Really didn’t know this was a thing
- oversized watches in general Agreed
-Nike dunks in general but especially in formal situations What are dunks?
-frat flip hair as an adult Meh!
-silicone wedding bands outside of work (grow up) If I wear a ring, it’s silicon.
- Oversized water cups like a woman What if it filled with beer?
-a hard part in their haircut If you still have hair, flaunt it!
-flip flops not around a pool/beach Wrong, shoes hurt my feet.
-long back pocket wallets Ok, I’ll go along with this one.
-bow ties I look good in a hand tied bow tie!
-seersucker suits You ever been to an outdoor formal wedding in August?

I mostly do not wear hats. Just really not my preference.

when I do though, I prefer a curved bill. if it is a flat rim, I will give it the ever slightest curve. Absolute straight / flat bill is just not proper in my eyes for a upstanding law abiding citizen

I'm not tall either but not in to showing thigh meat

the big Apple Watch Really didn’t know this was a thing
Ya they make them in a bunch of sizes and the big one is ridiculous. I think men should use the wrist watch for style and an apple watch in NPC ****, and they're ugly, but i get it if you're in to the tech

Nike dunks in general but especially in formal situations What are dunks?
They are the plain low top Nikes that look kinda like AF1 that have gotten huge the last several years. The panda dunks esp are trash but I hate seeing the dunks or low top Jordans in dressy situations like the guys on ESPN. You gotta grow up and get some classy sneakers like Cole Haan's or Bally's.

Oversized water cups like a woman What if it filled with beer?
Ha you got me there. Acceptable. I'm starting to believe too much water is what is making women crazy. I'm sure the march where they raised a million for that lady that strangled all her kids all had Stanleys.

frat flip hair as an adult Meh!
It's more horrific than a flat bill. Being 65 years old with a swoosh is a level of boomer douchebaggery that cannot be measured

a hard part in their haircut If you still have hair, flaunt it!
The hard part is where they razor in that line of the side. It's toddler hair. I'm not referring to simply parting your hair

flip flops not around a pool/beach Wrong, shoes hurt my feet
Gotta get better shoes my friend and always be prepared for combat ha. I'm a Nike guy but I gotta admit at 42 i keep a pair of Brooks. They are awesome.
bow ties I look good in a hand tied bow tie
Bow Ties remind me of OM and progressive attorneys. The older I get I realize outside of defense attorneys and top tier litigators, most attorney's are not men's men.

seersucker suits You ever been to an outdoor formal wedding in August?
If you can pull it off, more power to you. But everyone I see in a seersucker suit I imagine they talk like Foghorn Leghorn.

I wear 2 inch seam shorts so I can hang a nut out each side so they don't get hot.

I can Foghorn Leghorn with the best of them. I can really turn it on when I get north of the mason dixon line.

Back in the day (i.e. high school) I'd use a baseball and a rubber band. I remember seeing Lids sell some contraption for the same effect.
I always folded the hat in on itself so that the front of the bill would touch the back of the hat. Leaving it like that overnight always seemed to do the trick.
