Snapback is an urban slang term for an adjustable, flat-brimmed baseball cap with snap fasteners
on the back. All other design elements are identical to modern, fitted,
flat-billed caps as worn by professional baseball players. Snapbacks
are less expensive than fitted baseball caps, and have become
increasingly trendy in young urban fashion.
Although trucker hats
and other types of adjustable baseball caps may be sold with pre-bent
brims, these are not typically called "snapbacks" in urban slang.
Hip Hop Culture
Popular hip-hop artists including Tupac Shakur, Eazy E, N.W.A., Dr. Dre, and Ice Cube,
during the early 1990s, promoted snapbacks and increased their
popularity through their album covers, music videos, and movies,
starting a new trend.
The hip-hop industry has greatly promoted snapbacks. Snapbacks are
advertised in music videos, lyrics, images, interviews, billboards etc.
In recent years celebrities have used snapbacks as a key feature to their fashion trends. More and more fans have adapted this tendency and the snapback usage has increased. Hip-hop artists Chris Brown and Tyga have promoted snapbacks in both their lyrics and music video for the song Snapbacks Back. Furthermore, rapper Wiz Khalifa has featured them in his fashion trends and in most of his music videos, such as in his song Roll Up. Other rappers such as Big Sean, Mac Miller and Jay-Z are also known for wearing snapbacks.
Although baseball players bend the brims of their fitted caps into a
slight arc and wear them devoid of decals, youths who wear these outside
of baseball typically do not bend the brims of their snapbacks and
leave several or all retail stickers on the hat.
