So... a lot of young guys -- hipsters -- have taken to Trilbys and fedoras. But they really don't seem to be doing it right.

And then... there's this:

Oh lordy...

What in heavens name do they call that abomination? They call Ballcaps 'Snapbacks', so that would be knows as a Button back? Click-back hat?
How about "The Clicker-backer!"

All it needs is advertising on it like the typical not sports team baseball cap.

Even without the baseball cap band, those hipster fedoras are ugly to begin with. I thought it was bad enough when they put the adjusters on yacht and civil war caps.

Oh god, I really hope to see one of those in person so I can laugh inside. And maybe outside. Next thing, kids will be asking us where our snapper's gone!

This might be a contender for the most clueless item of clothing ever.

Not in the same league with trousers that you have to hold up with one hand just to walk but that's patently stupid.
This, on the other hand, is clueless.

The flashing LED fedora, however, is obviously a safety item. So you don't get run over in the dark.
And it interrupts the transmissions. Better than aluminum foil.
