I would use a hand steamer on it. That usually relaxes the fibers.Not a steal, but fun Resistol real Milan for $45. I mean, until the seller stuffed it into a tiny box. Anyone know if there's an easy/safe way to straighten a bound natural Milan brim? Ugh.

I am posting this one because, although the seller's pics are terrible, I would like to know if anyone ever heard of the "Vento" brand. It only cost 20 dollars, so I bought it... View attachment 247622 View attachment 247621 View attachment 247620 View attachment 247619

I see what you mean
Great find, Max. Glad you got it and to see it go to a good home.
I think you could be pleasantly surprised by that one. Looks a bit dirty on the underside, but that should clean up.I am posting this one because, although the seller's pics are terrible, I would like to know if anyone ever heard of the "Vento" brand.

Yes, it is a beautiful hat.....I just hope it does not get altered (shrunk)......Not me. I was looking at it, went away for two minutes, came back and it had sold. I wasn’t going to buy it, but it sure didn’t last long.
At Starbucks that size costs about $20 tooI thought it was a coffee size.
I sent an offer of $200 on eBay for this Optimo, and was expecting the seller to reject it offhand.. what a pleasant surprise. View attachment 248029 View attachment 248030 View attachment 248031
