Analyzing The Many Different Varieties Of 49Ers Hats

By Stacey Massey


Anyone looking to purchase 49ers hats will find there are many things to consider. These days, the market for sportswear is very competitive and clothing is often seen not only as a statement of allegiance to a particular sports team, it is also seen by some as a fashion accessory. Considering they can set you back anywhere between $25 to $50, it might be worth thinking carefully about a number of different reasons why you need this item of clothing.

The term 'hats' nowadays refers to more than just baseball caps. However, even in the area of baseball caps the potential buyer has a choice from a variety of different styles. The flat bill cap is one of the most popular. And for those looking to buy something a little different there are many other types of headgear.

And not all products have the distinctive 'SF' logo on the front. Some have the word 'NINERS' and others come in variations of this. Some come in the standard bright red, whereas some are black, white or in various combinations. So, when ordering online, it is wise to to ensure the exact color matches requirements.

They come in many varieties and it could be argued that the type of gear worn speaks volumes for its user. For instance, the mascot, Sourdough Sam, has his own head-wear, a beanie that may well raise a few smiles from passersby. It is embroidered with the team's logo and with symbols that recognize and acknowledge the San Francisco area and the team's gold-rush origins.

Conversely, the flat bill models, as worn on music videos by rappers and other musicians, are sometimes considered a fashion statement. Often worn with the stickers still on the flat bill, these products are among some of the top sellers. They are usually made from 100% polyester fabric with a structured fit, that basically means they come in various sizes.

One item that is sometimes overlooked when thinking about headgear is the visor. Though still considered a hat, it is usually best worn in the summer months as the lack of protection for the skull may not suit everyone. Usually made from 100% cotton, they have the added distinction of featuring adjustable hooks and fastener straps, meaning they can be easily adjusted. So in this case one size really does fit all.

For the more mature fan, a retro hat could be more to their taste. They are often seen as vintage clothing because they are from a different era, an era when the 49ers were very successful. Those looking to inject a little more fun into game-day could go for a jesterhead hat. As the name suggests, they are styled like the hats jesters in a king's court used to wear and are styled in red and gold.

To sum up, the potential purchaser of 49ers hats has many options. What needs to be decided is if the headgear is going to be fashion statement, a statement about the wearer's allegiance to the team, or something that tells others more about the personality of the person. And it does not matter anymore if the wearer's favorite color is not red because there is a fix for that. Get a black 49ers hat. At between $20 and $50 one thing that is required is a durable item that, come game-day can be relied upon.
