I personally just call them beanie-bills... because it's a beanie with a bill on it... But I for the life of me can't find anyone that knows what they are actually called, or find it online.

Anyone know what their actual name is?

Thanks for any help put forth.

I used google Shopping for "beanie brim" and "brim beanie" and found some. Also "visor beanie."

Edit: I like Chris' answer better. :(

by putting the words "beanie brim" into the confusing, inaccessible, expensive search engine that is Google (http://www.google.com), I got a LOT of results for these under the most obvious of names, which differed slightly.

I would guess that it has a lot of names like it's brimless predecessor, which is called a toque, beanie, knit cap, and finally, "hat".
BRICK!

Needs more footbag. I would by a beanie-brim if it had a footbag logo on it.

Because it is no about brims, bills, or whatever you want to call them, It is about ear flaps and pompoms.

Because he's one of those kids that hates change.

In reply to his "retarded" remark, yes, I'm sure it would look retarded on YOU. But some people look pretty good with it on. Kinda like how some people look good with those... uhhh, flat bill'd baseball "gangsta" caps...

You know whatt I'm talking about... all the white trash are wearing them these days. But some people can pull it off while others can't.

Just because you don't look good in something, doesn't make it retarded.

Thanks for the help again people.

I especially hate changing my underwear

Also, I didn't say they were retarded, I said you'd have to be half retarded to wear one. Hey that's better than fully retarded right?

Nah I'm just joshing, wear a hat with a wannabe bill if you want, it offers no selective advantage.

And neither do high heals. In fact, it's a horrible disadvantage, but women still wear them.

Body peircings? No advantage, can be a disadvantage in some cases as well.

In fact... if we wore our clothing based on whether or not it was usefull to us (other than just warmth), we wouldn't wear even 3/4 the things we do wear.

It's just a style. Either way, I'm not looking for an argument, so I'm going to leave it at this, and ignore the colorfully stupid comment that's right beneath yours.
