How often have you been walking through a hipster-centric neighborhood and thought to yourself, “That is absolutely the worst hat I have ever seen, and, at the minimum, I would like to spray that person with a full-blast fire hose and scold them about their explicitly bad life decisions?” More times than you can count on two hands worth of fingers, right?
So here’s the deal: Picking out good promotional headwear takes a bit more thought than taping a sequined beet to your head and strutting down to your local hipster post-ironic poetry frump. Design sense is a must. Check out the following caps and headwear styles below for some ideas on where to start.
Keep a Low Profile
