Summer baseball cap

[HollyJoint]

Hello.
The cap is an accessory that I never used much, however I think it may well complete a casual/preppy summer look.
I want to buy two from polo, but I don't know which colors to choose.
Should I opt for the more versatile navy/beige colors, or more open colors like red?

Don't buy from Polo. Logo merchandise is low status.
Get something either plain or with a logo representing
a school you attend(ed) an organization you support, like a team,
a club, etc.

Any one of those colors will be fine. I don’t worry about baseball caps too much. I’ll leave the brand to you.

I prefer a soft sided baseball cap.

The red cap may lead people to think you're a supporter of a certain politician at a quick glance.

This may or may not have the effect you desire.

Hmm. Never thought of that.I regularly wear a red cap with my
college initial on the front when I go walking for exercise. Where
I live Trump supporters are about as common as Dodo birds.

Hard to say without knowing your style. Navy and khaki are safe bets.

If you are going for a casual look with a baseball cap, why not for a baseball team? Or your university? It just seems silly to buy a polo branded hat instead. At least a real baseball cap has the advantage of being sincere, whereas this seems forced.

Should the color of the caps be a complement to the rest of the outfit and should the colors match?
For example. combine a white hat with white sneakers, or wear a neutral colored outfit with a red hat?

You're overthinking it. Just pick one and wear it.

Here is an example of how to wear a baseball cap right.

Although I do wear baseball caps from time-to-time for nostalgia; either my college team; my Yankees cap (my favorite team) or my Red Sox cap (worn purely for irony (ofc no one knows it's supposed to be ironic but me)), I prefer an old linen driving cap that I've had for 7+ years now. It's worn-in nicely, so it doesn't look too dressy and its super duper comfortable, but it's just dressy enough that I wear it to work sometimes.

Other times, I reach for my straw hat, which is a bit cumbersome even with it being rollable and I can stuff it in my pocket or a bag.

I guess I am saying, skip the baseball cap and get a cap, although nothing wrong with a baseball cap, in my opinion.

They are a tad boyish. At some point one needs to graduate to hats.

On a related note, does anyone know of a good place to get a baseball cap for larger heads (62-63). I know Lock sells them, but they are a bit more refined than what I am looking for. They don't need to be properly sized, but one-size-fits-all does not fit me.
