I love and enjoy all forms of baseball, from college, non-affiliate, through all levels of minor league ball, and professional.
as far as the hats go, there’s a larger number involved than you may realize, though it’s by no means as popular as shoes. There’s some hats that have increased in value to double and triple what I paid for them…though I don’t do it for that. I genuinely just love them and talking to people who ask about them when I wear them.
the last of the ones I’ve ordered this year will be here in a few days and it sold out of pre orders 3 separate times.
to answer your other questions, I usually coordinate them with whatever I’m wearing that day when I’m out and about. When I’m not wearing them they are in a a drawer, I’m getting a wall display for them in the near future.
tl;dr I get them because I enjoy baseball and enjoy the hats a great deal.
Edit: obligatory picture. Here’s my Wisconsin Udder Tuggers hat.
