We had some ones from Drew Pearson last summer we were selling, so I would assume its not fake.
 
do any of the new suppliers of snapbacks make the old material, and if so, what material is it?

What I mean is, the lighterweight, not these wool, fitted type hats

Black Star - Nice Detroit script.

manamazing55 - You're talking about the cotton/poly blend? Most retros use wool but there are some boutiques that use blend for their snaps.

that must be it. Thats how every hat was when I was a kid. Its much lighter and not as hot. Id like to find some like that, its hard when searching to differentiate sometimes

Oh yep. Thats what you're referring too. I like it as well but only in pristine condition. Once any damage is done the hat's never the same. Wool twill tends to hold it's shape much better.

because people were saying you could get old snaps from Flea Markets, I hit the Super Flea Market we have here a few times a year. There was nothing like that there haha. It was jewelry and old crap people have kept.

I was so dissapointed. Smh
