Here’s a bit of denim science. I wanted to start wearing the broken twill hat first. Really like this one.

Size comparison with a couple hats that fit me well.

Into the caldron

Set it outside to dry

Over all I feel I got some nice shrink. Fits a lot better. Once the denim gets worn and loosens up I think it’s going to be a winner.

PS: I apologize for the nudie shots. Hot out. Couldn’t be bothered to put back on a shirt.

@Mizmazzle wow, seems like that changed that hat quite a bit. Thanks for that man, I was eyeing that broken twill hat. Still haven’t decided if I want it or not.

Mine ships can’t wait get that one too.
Bring it on ️️️

@Mizmazzle
What the Broken Twill hat fabric like compare to Sashiko Ori hat

It thick and heavy ️️

[Mizmazzle]

@Kasi it’s slightly lighter in weight I’d say. It’s a lighter color than the sashinko. I kind of prefer it for some reason. Not that the sashinko isn’t dope too. It’s the denim head in me I guess.

[Mizmazzle]

@travisxray glad to help bro. It’s a rad hat. I think once that denim relaxes and I shape the bill the way I like it’s going to be damn cool.

@Teejus Did you happen to soak the brim? How did it hold up in the dryer?

I just got mine today and Im planning on soaking it to shrink it down a bit.

[Teejus]

@Danimal506 I did soak the brim. Just in the hottest water I was able to get from the tap though. No issues I can see from that or the dryer.

[Danimal506]

@Teejus Thanks for the feedback

@Mizmazzle Great photos! I just saw those. Looks like shrink to fit is the way to go for both hats.

The broken twill was much better looking in person than in photos.

[Mizmazzle]

@Danimal506 I’m digging it. Wore it out this evening.

[Danimal506]

@Mizmazzle Hell yea!

[Danimal506]

A couple quick fit pics before I soak it in hot water. Dont mind the scowl. That bright Texas sun is out today

[Kasi]

@Danimal506

Looking good

[Danimal506]

Here goes nothin!

@Kasi Thanks

[Danimal506]

After 30 minutes, starting at around 190f cooling down to around 120f. It’s now drying outside in the 100f degrees Texas heat. A little sun and then shade.

And here is a fit pic after it dried for two hours outside. The bill got wet but held up fine. The patch shrunk a bit but seems to be doing good. The fit is smaller and I like it much better. Although I didn’t mind the pre-soak fit either, I wanted this hat to be more broken in feeling.

[Danimal506]

A couple days of wear. Here’s a quick playground pic

[Mizmazzle]
