It’s all About the Caps Baby!
By K.C. Alexis
What is the deal with men and their caps? Is it the color, size, style? Who
knows? Whatever it is, there is a definite craze and every male on the block is feeling
it.
This is not an urban African-American thing. This is a universal thing. It transcends
cultural and gender boundaries, and is a cultural pastime. Caps serve different purposes.
They can camouflage the sun, a bad haircut, no haircut, someone “peeping”
someone else out and just for “flossing” purposes.
More and more people are wearing caps again and they have become a fashion necessity for
many these days. Caps have to accentuate every element of the wardrobe or it just does not
fly and for some wearing a cap is a very serious matter. The brim must be bent just right.
The color must match the outfit. The size must be correct. Loose hats are a no, no! The
final and most important thing is that when rocking a hat, it has to complement your face.
Not every hat fits everyone.
Know one thing for sure, caps are the “in” thing and you better get hip to the
game or you'll be left in the cold!
