I know it isn't possible to please everyone but I would much prefer a more traditional cap than a flat brim.  When I think flat brim, I think of Colin Kapernick on the sidelines or people wearing hats sideways.  I know I'm sounding like a curmudgeon but that's my 2 cents.  No sideways hats or saggin' for me.

I'm in this camp.  As my avatar shows; I roll my cap bill.  I'm likely to buy several caps of this type as I go through that many a year.

I hear ya, old dudes.   :smt003

Seriously though, I've got a sample coming to me in the mail by next week.  I'll see how mutable it is and post up a photo essay...

I'm leaning toward staying with this, but I will certainly consider it further.  I did go in to this decision considering that I would not be offering everyone's first choice of style (I considered beanies...).  I am confident that I can end up offering something that will appeal to as many members as possible - old dudes included!   :smt005  It's all relative!  :smt001

Great shirt lineup, Eric!  You didn't miss the first three - we didn't start doing shirts until GS3.  I may be able to hook you up with one to fill out your collection - I'll have to check stock.   :smt001

I'm glad to have your display here for everyone to see.  As it relates to discussion a page or two back on this thread, I want to clarify why I do not seek the talents of artists and graphic designers like my good friend Tony/Novofish or others. 

I like simplicity!  I am very fond of the consistency of design over the span of years from early in the tournament series until now.  I do not plan to alter my M.O. of using the "yakker image" on the back or the NCKA logo on the front.

I do appreciate input, and I really just want people to know why I do what I do.  Thanks for the understanding and support.   :smt001
don't forget the one FM1 had done....was the #2? some even had the vato airbrush thing going. I still have mine so not hatin...just sayin
