Re: Hats

Throwbacks are coming out this season in the On-Field Authentic series if you didn't know yet! I'm excited to pick them up, not sure when they'll drop at local stores; specialty hats I like to have in-hand instead of ordering them online.

Yeah they had I'm guessing the home and road on Lids' website I believe. I think I'm going to get the blue crown/red bill.

Re: Hats

I use to own a ton of fitted hat's back in like 2006-2008 time span when I was in High School. Today I purchased my first Sox fitted hat since about then. I've really only stuck to New England teams in terms of jersey's, hats, shirts but man while I was at lids I was highly considering buying a brewers hat.



Crappy thing is even though there was a 7 1/4 size (my size) it didn't fit me but the Red Sox one fit me perfectly. Hand stitched does that though...

HatClub has 'em. I love this site, if you buy hats a lot, I would recommend buying their membership card. One time purchase of $5, and you get 20% off all future purchases.

Yeah, but Lids expires after 1 year. Same with the Fanzz card; HatClub doesn't expire.

Im the same way. I really like the new Baltimore hat but I cant buy it cuz I dont "support" them. It feels like Im cheating or something.

Re: Hats

Anyone know how to shrink a hat? I bought this one, but it's a tad big, size below was way too tight.

I know there was an old thread on OS, but I couldn't find it.

When they were wool it was soak it then put it on your head as it would dry and shrink. Now IDK.

The new material barely shrinks, atleast thats what Ive experienced with my new ones.

Damn. I might take it back then...

Maybe easier to stretch tighter hat?

If your cap is 100% wool and you want to shrink JUST the sweatband to make it fit tighter, you just get some hot water and brush it onto the sweatband using an old toothbrush or anything of the sort. Just make sure the sweatband is thoroughly wet and wear it dry.

If you want to shrink the entire cap, thus removing the boxy structure to it, soak the entire crown in hot water and wear it dry.

Throw the 100% polyester ones into the dryer several times, it will shrink slightly.

Oh god no, much easier to shrink them.

Re: Hats

I have about 5 or 6 Red Sox hats and a 2 Alabama hats. I'm not a big hat wearer as is, but baseball and college hats are the only ones that I'll wear. Something just doesn't feel right about wearing NFL and NBA hats.

I agree with the bold but disagree with NFL seeing as how most coaches wear a hat or visor on the sidelines and players will often wear one when they aren't in the game. Throw NHL in the same group as NBA. Indoor sports, it doesn't make as much sense for hats.
