- The general rule for wearing a baseball cap is to find one with a good fit. This means it should feel snug on your head to avoid falling off, but never so tight that it gives you a headache or leaves red marks and indentations on your forehead.
- Unless the visor is obstructing your view or preventing you from otherwise safely doing a task, don't wear a baseball cap backwards. It's just not a good look. Same goes for wearing it sideways. That only works for toddlers. And if you're reading this, you are not a toddler.
- Remember that less is more. You can get a lot more mileage out of a plain black cap or clean white baseball cap than some trendy graffiti-laden lid that will only take you so far and lose its appeal after wearing it for one season.
- Know your material. If you sweat a lot or plan on being in the sun, choose a baseball cap in a breathable fabric such as cotton. Conversely, if you're wearing a cap in the cold, opt for warmer materials such as wool or suede. Oh, and if you plan to sport a baseball cap with a leather jacket, don't double up with a leather cap. That's just overkill.
- Keep it clean. This is common sense, but it's worth mentioning. A grimy hat is never cute. Here's how to clean a baseball hat.
