I'd disagree about the Chieftain, Pyro Beanie, and Whoopee cap.

[B]The Chieftain[/B] fits Soldier's obsession with War, and unlike the other hats with this theme, it also fits his American background and patriotism. It fits a lot better than Kabuto or Tyrants.
[B]The Pyro's beanie[/B] fits because of the propeller beanie's background and stereotype as a thing worn by mischievous children (like firestarters) and socially awkward nerds.
[B]The Whoopee cap[/B] fits because at the time when it was popular, it was a status symbol among kids. It was around before the 50's 60's, and it's not a crown like most people think.

I wish you would have mentioned more hats though...
Like how the Tosslecap didn't become a popular thing until somewhere around the 80's and 90's, how the vibrant color the Master's Yellow headband sticks out like a sore thumb, how the Brainslug also doesn't use the teamcolors, and how the fuckugly Gatsby is supposed to make sense on Medic is a mystery yet to be solved.
