What is your favorite hat crease?

Speaking of that hat wanting what the hat wants...

This Adam was a refurb project - my first. I had to gut it, give it a naphtha bath, replace the sweatband and the ribbon. At the time, I didn't own any blocks, so I bathed it and let it dry on an old flower pot. After that, and a good steaming, the crease fell right back into where it had been for decades.

Its not a Strat or a Borso, in fact this Hat City Hat Co. is at the other end of the spectrum. Mike at NW hats gave it some new life with a sweat and reblocking. I like this hat, but around here, probably not something that will get much love...

Why would it not get much love ?

Great looking piece

I've owned multiple Hat City hats .... all of them were great

I think you have a bit of the wrong idea about this forum
