Best Way to Stretch a New Era 59FIFTY Fitted Hat

[@RonBoger]

Hey there, Beau… thanks again for sending me a stretcher in time for our trip to Goodyear! My cap is in the stretching process now after steaming it. ⚾️🧢

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?

[@ballcapking8410]

Do you want it to be lower than 2 inches? The 59fifty has a tall crown. That's just how they're made.

Ok ok ok I bought one. You sold me. I have another stretcher that always puts a bend in the visor. I like to keep it flat. Let’s see how it goes.

Sorry, I haven't been on here. I trust everything is working out like it should.

How do you stretch polyester hats ?

[@ballcapking8410]

Are you talking about polyester baseball caps?

[@rrmin36]

@@ballcapking8410 Yes.... I so liked wool so much more... These feel plastic to me. And I figured out to steam them and then use a stretcher, only problem is the caps stretch weird...

[@ballcapking8410]

I'm with you...wool was so much better. I've been stretching my ball caps with hat stretchers for years, and my caps never looked weird. The only time I've seen a hat stretcher make a cap look weird is when someone tried stretching their Cap more than one size. I wonder why yours are turning out weird.

@@ballcapking8410 the hat is stretching where the stretcher is which is about 1 inch wide, then the rest of the hat is remaining the original size... lol If you can visualize that it looks like a step up in the hat...

Is it possible to stretch 1/8 to 3/8?

[@ballcapking8410]

It's possible, but I wouldn't recommend it because it will usually malform the ball cap. I recommend not stretching more than one hat size. Hope that helps.

[@oldiesgeek454]

After you stretch it, and it fits comfortably, it's probably going to eventually shrink back to where it was before.. Correct? And then you'll have to stretch it again? Thanks. 😊
