Talk:Snapback (hat)

Bias?
I'm rather new to the whole Wikipedia scene, but is it not biased to list three specific manufacturers of five-panel snapbacks? In my own opinion if we're going to list companies who make this particular kind of hat then the only way to do so without bias is to list every single one, which is rather impractical.

So should reference to specific manufacturers be removed or kept? 50.72.4.45 (talk) 03:31, 3 December 2013 (UTC)

Companies that sell
No, it's not good form to add links to websites that sell objects of clothing mentioned in articles. It's just advertising. 180.148.68.222 (talk) 23:25, 3 December 2013 (UTC)

The functions of the headwear used in this day and age have not really changed from the purpose of its use in the past. Some caps may be worn for protection by many people, and others may wear these caps to indicate that they are associated with a certain class of people that may also wear the same headwear for example; this can include several celebrities that wear baseball caps or athletes that many of their fans look up to and follow. Many of these people who follow these celebrities and athletes may show their support to the individual that they follow by wearing a certain colour or symbol to represent their team, symbols for possible cancer survivor, team logo on a baseball cap or the clothing brand symbol that the celebrity that they follow has created.
