Imma try this cuz I have so many brand new hats I have never worn cuz they was to big and never returned them.. hope this helps.

Thanks for that bro! I recently bought a 59Fifty Pittsburgh Pirates fitted which is a 7 1/2. I'd previously bought a 7 1/8 fitted but it was a little tight hence buying a bigger size, problem is the 7 1/2 was too big! I was thinking of selling it which I really didn't wanna do because I really like it and haven't come across another one like it. This seems like the perfect solution so I'll be trying this one out, many thanks from the UK!

Thanks for sharing. I had a 7.25 that was too loose and this tightened it up the perfect amount. No burns. Let it cool off and wore it until it was dry. It’s perfect now.

59 Fifty 100% polyester fitted from a 7 1/2 down to about 7 3/8 maybe slightly smaller, but not down to 71/2. Plus you don't risk burning it in an oven, spark in the microwave, or drowning or soaking in water. By far, it is the most sensible and easiest option of those I've seen online. Essentially, using steam to relax and shrink the size down. I did it, and it worked. Did like 8 minutes the way you show, with most of the back of the hat and about an inch of the brim hanging straight over the pot (sort of like a lid) so all the stem goes inside the center and along the sides. Took it off and tried it on, but I still wanted more shrinkage on the sides. I put it back on and focused on each side individually for 5 minutes each. I had the side hanging over the center of the boiling water rather than closer to the edge of the pot, as it originally was. Pulled it off after each side was done, and I tried it on and much better. Adjusted bending the brim again from the corners (where the brim meets the cap material on top) and absolutely perfect. Great video. Thanks for posting.

Good to see you too

Do you think this could shrink a 7 3/4 down to a 7 1/4? Or close at least?

how can you stretch 'em to make them bigger? I put 1 of my favorite D fitted's in the cleaners & it shrunk it too small

great vid. top tip, put an upside down seive on the pan to support the hat but still let it steam.

will try it on my new era cap I just got

DO NOT WALK AWAY WHEN DOING THIS!!! Walked away for a minute and my whole hat was on fire 😭

Bro you are a lifesaver good stuff

The Mets and the bones hat are tooo fye

Like them all tho

That looks royal blue not navy blue navy blue it a couple shades darker if not 1 shade darker

Seriously brah. All I wear are fitted hats, 5950. I'll be checking you out

Did u cop that HUF x Midnight organic hat?

Navy is definitely my favorite color right now on 59fifty. It’s just a classic color on fitteds

Auto like… I fw u bro 💪🏽

🔥💯

Etcetera

Tried it and I HAD to come back to this video to give you your props! This worked very well for me

Martin>Seinfeld

Does the Uv’s stop u from buying hats? And for the love of god flip yo camera plz.. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 the mirror kinda effect is killing me but I’m subscriber so how am I complaining 🤔

What material is the hat you shrunk made out of?

Boy sounding like Pierre lmao. There are always new people getting into the community so the classics will always be recreated.

*Yeezus* & *808s & Heartbreak*

You can also put in a Stankeez!

I just got my first wool 5950 yesterday, im a 7 & it's a bit big so I'm deffo gunna try this out! Thanks! 💯

You need my Larry June pins that I made

Thanks a bunch for the video. I fixed three hats! It works!!

I put it on my head wet,after it’s cooled down, to mold it to my head . Also you can use hair dryer while it’s on your head But I’ve only used this method on fitted dad hats

Hey! My hat is perfect size, but it is very tall and if I place it above my ear, the top of the hat is 2 inches away from the top of my head. Can i do something about it?

Bro just found this page. Keep it up man

I only collect Seattle Fitteds, I have just over 300 in my collection and I feel this hard. It’s been an absolute MINUTE since I’ve been excited about a drop, and now Real Tree 2.0 is starting!? 🤢 I WILL say, I’m excited come this October to see the NHL hats coming out though with the new deal signed!

This just makes me feel old.

If these Hooks need to die y don't u decide some new 1s?

Fitted community running out of ideas 😂 Theres only so many colorway combos you can do before you they start looking the same

I wear 7 1/4. I tried it on my 7 3/8 hat and managed to make it fit perfectly for me. It was a 95% polyester 5% spandex New Era hat, so this makes the trick for those materials too 👍 Thanks for the video! Saved the hat from catching dust in my cupboard. It was a present so I didn't want to sell it 😀

Along with MJSOX hooks, ban all BULLS SHOE HOOKS🤣

I get your point but the designers and hat stores are following the market as they are always selling out. They are playing by the rules sell hats full stop.

I think another one if Larry June. Just about every San Fran hat is a Larry June hook. lol

Another spot on vid. I completely agree with you 💯

I’m new to fitted. Be honest, most of the hooks do not make sense to me. Dragonball Z’s…nooo. Substance abuse hooks…nooo. I don’t get it.

Good looking out gang💯 I was skeptical as shit but gave it a try and this move worked perfectly…

It’s just colors and logos. If I can’t get a hat with the color and logo I want because it was “limited release”, and I can get something basically the same somewhere else and not pay a stupid price for it, I’m going to.

Thanks my man! Worked for me too. Congrats on your weight loss success. I’m in the same boat. Gone down from 8 to 7 3/4. I’ve got a ton of caps to shrink down now.

songname?

i go with the cubs

Great video bro thank you. Bout to put this to the test with my newest twins hat I just copped 💪🔥🔥
