I bought the 59Fifty one online, thinking it was an average Bo hat. Obviously it's made for a different kind of owner (somehow it makes my very large head look very small), but I've bent the rim and wear it anyway.

Back in the 90's, lost my favorite Michigan hat. 

Basically a Bo-style hat (blue with yellow stitched block M), but with a brown suede bill and brown leather adjustment strap in back. I believe it also had MICHIGAN stitched in little letters over or next to the opening in the back. 

That was an awesome hat. So bummed when I lost it. 

My favorite current hat is my fitted block M cap from the 90s. Pretty disgusting, though, so my wife hates when I wear it.

Had one in HS that was close to this, but I think the block M was in the front and a script Michigan was on the side- it was solid back in 1992.

I then went to the stretchfit caps (Lloyd era M caps)

I still stick with the strectch fit caps. I've had 3 of these: likely my all time favorite.

 

cannot stand snap backs- had those all thru Little League, they don't fit properly. velcro is dumb IMO and the straps are even worse. Stretch fit is the only way to go.

I got a Nike, Michigan football hat white with a blue bill for attending the football summer camp in 1995. The last day of camp Bo gave a speech and I got him to autograph the hat and shake hands after his speech. Having Bo Schembechler give me his autograph, shake my hand, and tell me "Go Blue" was a great day. I don't ever wear the hat but it's definitely my favorite.

I'm a big fan of New Era 39thirty. I'm rocking a navy 39thirty New Era with maize block M all the time these days. I like the 59fifty look too but there's no New Era hat size that fits me well so it's either too tight for comfort or a bit too loose.
