The most unique and original shots will be posted here for the world to see. (And, oh yea – toss that cell phone cam – that resolution isn’t going to make the cut.)

Rules and regs follow after the jump. Read them carefully, many lost their shot by ignoring the important details.

Lots of folks out there are fitted fiends, especially in the world of hip hop. You get spotted rocking a flat-brim fitted and, for the most part, you’ve been unconsciously associated with hip hop. As much as sneakers are associated with the culture, fitteds (especially New Era) are just as much a staple. While not all of these guys are necessarily musicians, they’re somehow connected to the culture and I’ve almost always spotted them rocking a fresh/clean fitted. Sure, some of the bigger names folks probably got their fitted games stepped up by their stylists but let’s pretend they still put in the final word.

There’s a lot of fitted libraries I’d love to browse, I actually felt illogically guilty for leaving some folks out. The hard part was holding this list down to 10, but I picked these folks for their somewhat different styles. And while the entire world might not know all of these people, fitted fanatics recognize them and their hat game. I know you’re gonna come up with a couple of folks that should be on this list… but this ain’t your list. It’s mine, mu ah ah. First 5 up are: Bun B, The Cool Kids, Wale, DJ Clark Kent & A-Trak.

Seeing as how you and I both have short internet attention spans, I’m spreading this article into 2 parts. Part 2 is coming soon,  so lets get part one going…

Individuality comes along with wearing the right fitted cap. During the summer months BROOKLYN CIRCUS released this 5 panel fitted cap.  On the front, Bkc is branded in the leather patch. Chambray is applied all over. This fitted cap comes in all sizes. Grab this fitted cap at the Chicago boutique Sir & Madam’s web store.

And THIS is why you peel the sticker off the bill of your fitted cap. This WAS Ralphie’s New York Yankees hat. We had an intervention for Ralphie who was suffering from an acute case of sticker dependency. Loyal to the very end, the visor sticker, barely hung on to his very worn, and dirty 59Fifty fitted baseball cap. We finally convinced “The R” to put the piece out of its misery and peel the thing off. To his shock and awe, underneath was a permanent, brightly colored patch. This is what the cap USED to look like. UGLY. Stick a fork in it, this hat is done. Lesson learned: Protect your investment and peel at will.
