In fashion it is either in or it is out. After my recent around the world trip I can say that the fedora trend is out and the baseball cap trend is in. N.B. I am not saying that fedoras are dead but that the fedora trend which we have witnessed over the past 10 years has faded.
MAKE WAY FOR THE RETURN OF THE LOGOED BASEBALL CAP
We used to say that the baseball wearing boy had grown up and embraced the fedora as a more manly hat. The hipster sartorial trend also helped to make the fedora the hat of choice.
Well, fashion's pendulum never stops moving and it is now landed on a 1970's look. Young guys are wearing their hair longer and girls are wearing flower wreaths in their hair.
Whereas before I would see shelves of fedoras in hipster stores, I now see shelves of caps. Not the classic "gap" pre-curved cap but a very 1970's flap peaked, short crown cap.
So here is what is in the stores from San Francisco, to NYC, to Paris to Cork and surely coming to a store on your street also.
