are they supposed to go in a certain direction, like the Vauen 9mm filters are supposed to have the blue on the stem side?
White Elephant 9mm don't have to go in any specific way, so I assume the 6mm would be good either way as well.

Also, I just got some Dr Perl 9mm, and they've got rid of the blue cap. Now you can put them in either way, just like most other brands. However, the ones I got are substantially smaller/narrower than any other brand I've had. The only pipe they really fit in is an Irish Seconds pipe I have

You are correct. The new Dr Perl 9mm are usable facing either direction. No more blue end.

I’m going to check out their 6mm now that they are becoming available.

Be sure to review them. I wanted to go with the Dr. Perl 6mm charcoal since they have more holes on the caps than Savinelli and White Elephant, but everyone is sold out or only available in large amounts (that I found). They're also about half the price or less. I hope another shortage isn't happening...
