If you were around during the original airings of 'Seinfeld' than you just might remember the kind of sartorial red flag seeing a woman around town wearing a baseball hat once conjured up- being sporty in an almost entirely non-fashion sense. But one thing we've noticed amidst the now waining early 90's resurgence is the surprising return of the baseball cap.
