pgmetcalf Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Does anyone remember the fat caps fans wore to matches in the 1980s? Does anyone know where you can get one from. It appears like the chav-like baseball cap has taken over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Mr B Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 Loved those hats. Still got my Bill & Ben bright yellow flower pot style hat from the early 90's. Not sure what happened but it must have shrunk over the years as it don't fit any more. I remember the flat caps - bring them back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luketheowl Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 well... yes i guess they are then but you do have to have guts to ware one if your an adult. it's usually the teenagers who go for them. i think i heard one say they were called a "sweedish gay hat" but that might just be a teenage nickname Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
