Intro
Snapbacks were made for the holidays. Get one you don't like? Rewrap that sucker and give it to your melon-headed cousin Vince. But we'll make things easier for you and save you some coin on shipping (not to mention explaining to Vince how to work the snaps): Here are 25 snapbacks you'll actually want. Throwbacks, current models, hockey, baseball, basketball, and football, they're all represented here. With Buy It Now links for each, you can have your dome covered like Chase Field in a heat wave. The best lids in the bid-ness? You bet. Here are 25 Sports Team Snapbacks We're Wishing For.
Brooklyn Dodgers
Brooklyn Dodgers '2T Coop

What do Brooklyn and pantyhose have in common? Flatbush! The Dodgers aren't in BK any more, but neither are you (Williamsburg don't count sparky). Act like you know in this smart lid.

Not the traditional darker Atlanta colors, this gem makes things a little more casual with the bright colors, lowercase "a" and plastic snapback.

You've heard of the Golden Bears. Now we'd like to introduce, or reintroduce, the Golden Seals, an expansion team that eventually moved to become the Cleveland Barons in the late 70s.
Winnepeg Jets
Winnepeg Jets 2-Tone Supersonic Snapback
Company: Zephyr
Yes, New Yorkers, there are other Jets than Gang Green. This cap has a unique look with the double bars across the front, logo on the side, and the two-toned plastic snaps.

Yeah, we know they're the WHITE Sox, but the old school color scheme is undeniably the best way to rep the South side.
Atlanta Hawks

Company: Mitchell & Ness
Simple, sleek, and intimidating. Now if only Atlanta's playoff game was as competitive as this...
Memphis Pros

With one of the dopest logos in all of sports, the Brew Crew originally used this symbol from 1978-1993 when high levels of testosterone were still acceptable.

Company: Mitchell & Ness
The Jets might officially be out of the playoff hunt come Christmas, but you can still prove your fandom by repping Mark Sanchez and company with this hat.

Trust us, we're big Whale Wars fans, but our moral standing won't prevent us from recognizing freshness when it's staring right at us.
Miami Hurricanes
Miami Hurricanes NCAA Anglin Snapback
Company: New Era
First he was smokin' a pipe, then he had Sammy Sosa and Mark McGwire gettin' him steroids on the low. Finally, Miami nailed it with this fierce little guy. With the stripes and oversized letters, you'll be makin' "The U" proud in no time.
Carolina Cougars
Carolina Cougars ABA Classic Logo 2-Tone Snapback
Company: Mitchell & Ness
When it comes to your cap collection, the more rare something is, the better. Unless your friends are as big of Complex fans as you, you're guaranteed to be the only one rockin' a Carolina Cougars hat.

Before the Warriors represented the general Golden State, they were specific to San Francisco, a place badass enough to be known as "The City."

How many hats do you have with stripes under the bill? #automaticaddition
Buffalo Sabres
Buffalo Sabres NHL Hat Trick Snapback

From the rainbow skyline to the miner on crack, Denver easily has some of the best logos available. This alt pick axe is too sharp to pass up.
Pittsburgh Penguins
Pittsburgh Penguins NHL Snap

No, it won't prevent concussions (no Sid Crosby), and no, you don't have to know a forecheck from a faceoff to rock it. Yes, you will look cool with it on your head.
