@Danimal506 Yeah ok bending the bill yeah I might do that. Poten, dehen etc are usually way too small for my head. Stetson works well. No experience with SJ.
-
Maybe the sashiko can fit you well because it starts so big? Hopefully. I’ll be putting a WTB thread out shortly for a black sashiko hat. I love the way my indigo one fits. I’m generally a 7 3/8 in a new era fitted hat.
One thing I like about the bill is that it holds its rigidity after getting wet. I hand wash my hats like once a year and the bill is still sturdy.

Can’t stop wearing the ramblin

@hgering27 looks amazing man! Suits you so good!



-
Folks who got soaked your ori hat, how did it turn out? Did it affect the shape of the crown?
-
@jdwaid I did soak mine and throw it in the dryer which resulted in a much better fit overall.
-
@hgering27 looks great - I haven't taken mine off for weeks now, although it is starting to move a bit more into Kristofferson season here recently
-
@Darth-fader man I wish, still not quite there where I am, but I am ready to start wearing mine again. I wish it was a size down, but itll be a solid layer for when it gets much cooler out
-
@hgering27 I get compliments or questions about mine every time I’m out.
-
I soaked my hat and it fits and looks much better.
-
I don’t think this one’s gonna need a hot soak and dry. maybe a luke warm soak. I really like this fabric doesn’t really feel waxy, but feels like it’s something in there not quite like the Guthries.
This is a XXL


-
Imagine that a dry waxed shirt does not want water to penetrate it. Who knew?


-
lol super interested with how the soaking goes and if it effects the sizing much at all. My large gets in Monday and I can’t wait
