Fitted hats have come a long way since the days of wearing a baseball cap to support your favorite team. Now a days fitted hats (also referred to as "fitteds") are more of a fashion statement for today's young adults rather than an expression of team spirit. The fitted hat industry is huge and even browsing around social networking sites such as MySpace or walking around a mall will result in tons of people sporting their fitted hats with pride.

For many, a fitted hat still remains an expression of support for a favorite team but now these fitted hats are also made by top urban fashion designers. These designers will create various styles displaying the designer's logo or name. Many urban clothing fanatics will wear one specific designer topping of the entire outfit with a matching fitted hat. Wearing these types of hats are as common as other fashion accessories like belts or necklaces. Often times, you will hear that an outfit would be made complete with a nice "fitted."

You can find fitted hats for sale in the mall or you can order fitted hats online. Most big malls may have hat stores which specialize on selling all styles of baseball hats. If a store isn’t available you are sure to run into a kiosk selling these hats. The prices for hats in the mall may be on the expensive side. It is rare to find huge savings in majore stores. Department stores may carry fitted hats and you can possible find coupons for department stores in the newspaper. You may find much better deals by browsing online. Most fitted hats are one-size-fit-all so trying them on first isn’t a huge issue. As long as you can enlarge the photo of the hat and get a closer preview of the design, you are sure to get a quality hat.

The most popular brand of fitted hats are made by "New Era." Be careful where you shop from online and offline as well. There are a lot of knock-offs floating around so stick to reputable places when doing your shopping. Beware of what you find at flea markets or shops on the sidewalk. While the prices may be tempting, you are getting what you pay for and that may be bad stitching and overall cheap quality. Great places to shop for fitted hats include eBay and Amazon.com. With the large amount of sellers on both sites, you are sure to find huge discounts and styles that are hard to find.

Keeping your fitted clean is important if you are wearing them for fashion purposes. The hat needs to be as clean and appear brand new. The newer it looks the better. This is often the case when combining a fitted with urban wear. If your fitted is starting to look worn it may be time to replace it. You would be surprised at how many people have a fitted hat fetish and devote shelves on their walls to their fitted hat collection. Due to the various styles, teams, brands, and logos, fitted hats make easy collector items and it is easy to rack up a huge amount in a short period of time. For the die-hard collectors, keeping their hats clean is a top priority.
