i wear a beanie myself. first off i shave my head, so sweat gets in my eyes. secondly my gym doesn't have the best heating, so it helps (i know this increases the amount of sweat, but remember the beanie stops it!). and third, hell, i like the look. it's a goddamn hat, who cares? unless someone's wearing a fez, cowboy hat, or turban, i can't imagine why someone else's headgear is important enough to warrant a comment.
