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

Love these hats!

@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

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

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

[Bobcat Sig]

Seeing that sashiko fabric now has me feverishly searching for a shirt. That's a killer garmnet.

[SourPower]

@hgering27 killing it

[hgering27]

@Bobcat-Sig yeah I have literally been wearing the sashiko as much as possible and the color change and feel has just gotten so good. I really hope theres another run because I would love to get a backup...

[Bobcat Sig]

@hgering27 No kidding! I somehow missed the launch of that shirt. I'm local to Ship John and I've ridden dirt bike with Mike a few times. That dude is exactly as he is in the photos. He even rides in his own denim. Good dude.

Sometimes I get their newsletters and sometimes I don't. But now I need (want?) that shirt.
