You've hit on the key issue here-----style and taste, personal preference. Not convention, not history, not nationalism. Flat caps are kinda like broccoli. Some folks like them and others hate them, then others wouldn't give a whip. It is that way with pretty much anything with a style--clothes, cars, TV shows and movies, on and on and on....

But you have to admit, there must be an awful lot of folks who do like those flat caps, with or without kilts, as it seems that the retailers continue to sell them a quite a clip.
