What’s a 1980s style hat?
One that Ronald Reagan would wear?
One where the brim is correctly facing frontward, with a slight bend, and discrete logo.
As opposed to the 90’s/00’s cap, brim spun to the side, flat as a board, manufacturers stickers still on it, and obscenely large logos. For reference, see any hip-hop video or walk through any diversely-populated urban area...
One you wear squared away on your head, bill forward, with the price tags and labels removed.
