Usin' yer noggin'!

You know, if there is such a thing as an American Uniform for guys, jeans are certainly a part of it, the default apparel for covering your bottom. At the other end of the spectrum -- and body -- lies your noggin' topping of choice. Now, except for small pockets of resistance -- like those ten-gallon Stetson-wearers in Texas -- men of the good ol' USA have heartily embraced the baseball cap as an essential wardrobe stable.

And why not? The baseball cap warms your pate in the winter, keeps the sun off your head and forhead (or neck if you flip it around) in summer, and keeps the glare out of your eyes year-round. Hey, have a bad -- or no -- hair day? Grab a baseball cap! Women are SO jealous!

Of course, one of the real cool things about the baseball cap is what it can say about you. Yeah, some guys wear plain caps, but they're obviously missing a big opportunity to make a statement. (No wonder they have problems finding women to date; these poor dudes have nothing to say!) A cap is an excellent way to broadcast your passion, pledge your allegiance, start a conversation, even make a few new buds -- maybe even "cap-ture" some romantic attention. I swear I once skipped a body-cavity search at an airport when the security officer looked at my Penn State cap, gave me a studied look, and said, "We are...." Yep, the proper response earned me a smile and a wave-through, I'm convinced!

Here at the Dog House Garage, our passions tend to run towards all manner of four-wheeled thingees. And now, we've got a fantastic new collection of hats coming in that will top off your look and put a smile on your face. We've got baseball caps for lovers of those two perennial favorites -- Vettes and 'Stangs -- in a variety of colors, like denim, khaki, and black. Muscle car manics will find Camaro, Cuda, and Firebird designs. Love your classic Eldorado or storming CTS-V? Yep, we've got the Caddy crest! Chevy guys, you may be surprised by our Impala and Bel Air caps. And speaking of major nameplates, we stock not only the expected Ford oval, but also some sadly missed orphan nameplates, such as Oldsmobile and Plymouth. We even have a few designs available in pink for, well, whoever prefers that color.

If humor is your calling card, you might prefer our "What happens in the garage..." number, or -- for you vintage dudes -- our "Old Guys Rule" offering (our first offering from this popular series). And naturlly, we still carry our own Dog House Garage logo caps!

So get yourself a capital dome-cover, add to your collection, or even begin one! Check out our selection of baseball caps today!
