Already took a look at them but the fabrics they have for the smallest size (7, 21 1/2") is not exactly to my liking.
Do the same etiquette rules apply to caps as fedoras?
I was taught that the etiquette rules applied to all hats, so to me it makes no difference what kind of hat it is; fedora, flatcap, western hat, baseball cap, etc., the rules are the rules.

You are just not conforming and he is trying to make you conform.
HoosierDaddy I see the small size of the brim on the B! Wear cap. It's almost baseball cap in size I don't have one so I don't know how the fabric is applied to the brim. But the size of the brim needs to be wider for me or the size of the body of the cap needs to be smaller. It is out of proportion with the rest of the cap and that is what I see in the pictures above.
I doubt this was ever worn. Ultra-light with a gros grain ribbon covered leather sweatband.
I just don't understand why Bi-Wear uses such a small (narrow) brim without a center seam lined up with the middle of the brim. Rather the seams run to each side of the brim. To me..it tends to almost give the cap a beret look when worn. Any one else notice this difference compared to most other caps?
Shhhhhh! I think they can hear us. I was looking at B! Wear's website today, and a ways down the page I see this;
A new version, with a wider brim and the seam down the middle. It runs $50, while the original one is 35. I might have to try one of these..........
Yeah, it's got a comical Jetsons cartoon look about that button. The brim is like the hp brims - you can shape it how you want. A denim cap is like a pair of jeans, eh - a good casual all year round cap. Yep, newsboys seem to have to be worn for a while to look their best. My hp linen cap is working well for summer, but the full cut is only half the size in dimension to these Zasus. One things with the zasu too, is that hem is quite thick around the band, so if the cap is a bit big and you have big ears it will sit down on them and the weight will push your ears out *laughs* If I had smaller ears, I'd be tempted to tuck my ears into it - plenty of roomYes what is up with that button. Like the brim on the cap though nice an big. It takes a while with Denim to get it to lay the way you want I can see on yours that it is kind of wavy. I where my Hat People Denim cap all year round I even wore it to work today.
