Ship John

@Brock so good!! My mind is made up. I’m going to break mine out soon, give it a soak or two, and start rocking it. Looks like it fades quicker than the broken twill version. Love the texture on the sashiko.

anyone else snag the decade wills? got the final payment notification a few days ago, and I am so damn eager to get that tracking email

[chadstone30]

@hgering27 Post a pic of that for sure...

[hgering27]

@chadstone30 oh i will, and coincidentally, not even like an hour after posting my question i got the tracking for my jacket, so I am hoping by end of next week

New hat day! Just in time for the hot weather in Texas. Mesh back corduroy in black.

Love these hats!

[mecken88]

@Danimal506 dang! Looks amazing! I’m still waiting on mine

[Mizmazzle]

@Danimal506 siiick!!! I want one!!
Would you say the fit on this is like the sashiko or broken twill BEFORE a soak?

[Danimal506]

@Mizmazzle If you’re talking about the high crown of the hat, yes it does have the typical Ship John high crown. I think it will settle a bit over time. But I’ve personally grown used to the way these hats fit.

Just tried the unwashed broken twill on and yes they’re essentially the same hat. But the BT is a thicker fabric and sits a bit taller on my head

[Mizmazzle]

@Danimal506 good info homie. Thx!!

[Danimal506]

@Mizmazzle Heres a quick head to head comparison

[Mizmazzle]

@Danimal506 the corduroy one looks perfect. I had to soak my BT one twice to make it fit my peanut head.

Do the bills on these hats hold a curved bill well? I see they come rather flat

[Danimal506]

@wjw Yes the bills are sturdy. Even after a couple hot water soaks, they can be molded. I prefer mine a bit flat

[SourPower]

@Danimal506 nice I went with the yellow cord and really dig it.

[hgering27]

It’s here and it’s awesome. Just as good as I had expected after everything I’ve read about them. This is a 3xl regular fits me well, some extra volume in the body but I wanted to make sure I could wear a hoody or heavyweight shirt under it

[chadstone30]

Excellent. Other than the leather patch what are the special features of the Decade Edition?

[hgering27]

@chadstone30 I think just the inside patch also otherwise I believe it’s the same but anyone feel free to correct me

[Brock]

Sweet! Mine is so old it’s not even lined on the inside..

[hgering27]

@Brock gonna try to start wearing as much as I can before it gets too warm out

[hgering27]

My Decade Wills, been wearing as much as possible before it gets too hot out
