    +1...I have a couple of vintage 7 1/2 LO gems that need continuous training to be worn by my 7 5/8 LO noggin. A band block from Art that is made from his conformer to the shape of my noggin is a sweet tool to use along with a Hat Jack & vintage stretchers.... Forgot to add = you are changing...

    Got a hat you like, but are not wildly proud of?

    Christy's Foldaway felt hat. Worst hat purchase ever. Only upside was I ended up with 2 tubes out of the deal. My well documented modern HatCo Stetson Stratoliner adventure I have to say I ended up with 1 factory second & 2 new ones basically free. Even those had issues with ribbon treatment &...

    Nope = have to get on that. They all fit nicely when I tried them on out of the package. I can't wear for any length of time without washing first. I'll at least get some of photos of them on hangers....
