@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.
-
@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.
-
@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.
-
@Danimal506 I’m digging it. Wore it out this evening.
-
@Mizmazzle Hell yea!
-
A couple quick fit pics before I soak it in hot water. Dont mind the scowl. That bright Texas sun is out today
-
Looking good
-
Here goes nothin!
@Kasi Thanks
-
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.
-
A couple days of wear. Here’s a quick playground pic
-
@Danimal506 Hat turned out great!!
-
@Mizmazzle Thanks!
-
Does the broken twill sit as high as the sashiko?

@Kasi They gave me one in a giveaway I won. They’re beer/soda koozies. To my knowledge they’re supposed to keep your hand from getting cold when holding a cold drink. I’ve never been a koozie guy. But they’re good for identifying your drink at a party or bbq.
@bluemantra Id say so, yes. Maybe slightly less high
