Does anybody know if these are standard sized through all makes and model.
Anybody got recommendations on where to buy some stylish ones?

I know everyone is into fitteds, but that stuff is way too hot sometimes. 8)

As long it is not plain white foam and black 1/2 I am alright. I don't mine wearing plain ones, but I prefer something simple.

I already know they don't make as much with good designs or print. I don't need expensive, but something that's nice. I have an old stussy one, and a dash of glitter outlining it. It's definitely different from the fitteds obviously and does not stick out in the crowd of commons.

Subcrew out of hong kong comes with some decent looking truckers sometimes. Their collabo with the hundreds especially. They can be hard to get a hold of, but they do alot of different things with panel/mesh materials, collabos etc. that stand out from most traditional truckers. If you just want a cheap stylish trucker, buy a blank or two and have a subtle design airbrushed/ hand painted on it. It will be cheap (even after paint), won't make you look like a brand jumper, and can be made to suit your personality/style...$hit...make a stencil, buy some krylon and try spraying ur own. Blanks are usually 4-5$ so even if it takes a few tries to get a design ur proud of it'll be cheaper than most branded joints

oh...sizes are def. NOT STANDARD across different brands. Even though they're adjustable, some are lower profile (shallower) than others..some have larger brims than others, and some have different size hole locations (2nd hole on 1 won't necessarily equal 2nd hole on another).

If you want some decent looking truckers, stick with Japanese, Hk brands. They tend to make alot of truckers :)

i see. i actually have looked into the idea, but i need more research in terms of the paint and what not.

thanks for the tip.

IF U WANT AN EXTRAVAGANT TRUCKER THEN BUY THE BAPE ONE. IF YOU WANT SOMETHING NICE AND CHEAP GO TO STUSSY, THEY HAVE PRETTY GOOD ONES WHICH RANGE FROM $28
