Back in the 90's as a teen when we all had Starter jackets and hats I was the master curve artist. I did mine and all my friends hats by hand. No tools necessary.

[@OscarGonzalez-fc6ru]

Yep, just broke it in by hand, wearing it and with sweat 😅

[@DEVINTAGE]

That’s lit💯💯💯

[@jamiethomas3306]

@@OscarGonzalez-fc6ruyeah I didn’t think it was a gift to be able to do it. I was doing it at 9 years old

[@biilyblast64]

It’s actually a way to get that old 90’s curve look that really puts more curve to the edges and keep the middle brim more straight. But I’d have to show in person how to do that.

[@Matt-oc4ws]

Yoo I randomly had a steamer buried in my closet.. didn't even no.never used this method before... Crispy af... Love it. Good looks bro. Best content for hats Iv seen💯

[@DEVINTAGE]

Appreciate it man that’s means alotn

[@user39022]

Nice. Thanks. I used the steam function on my iron. Worked well. To be clear i didn’t iron the brim. I just hovered the iron over it and turned the steam to max.

[@digidrum2003]

I was thinkin of doing this...thanks for talking about it.....gonna try it this weekend!

[@crazyman2821]

If you don’t have a steamer put some water in a pan and bring it to a boil and put the brim over the steam

[@DEVINTAGE]

Yesssir that’s some good advice , just don’t drop the hat in there lol

[@johnc7309]

Mad said water in a pan… good way to get burned. No wonder your name is crazy man 😂

[@billy.drac21]

he not wrong it works

[@alberto2alvarez14]

Yup works good I was like I don’t have 15 buck but I can make steam. Was going to make this same comment.

[@LoneWolfe_XX]

@@billy.drac21 will it stain your brim?

[@biilyblast64]

I’m from cali but I used to live in VA and wild visit NY all the time and eventually had a OG in a hat shop that showed me the true method to get that outer curve with the middle being lightly curved. Trust…it makes a big difference comfort wise as well because our skulls aren’t evenly round. It’s essentially your hand method but you curve your fingers only inward and push your thumbs down on the middle to keep the middle straight. Try it out. You’ll see and feel the difference once u put it on and you’ll never go back.

[@XxRemotexX]

Me watching hat curving videos already knowing how to curve a brim. 👍

[@DEVINTAGE]

Lol 👍🏾

[@cueyork8179]

Just gotta make sure it’s no new tips we missed lol

[@seanjurgens3575]

So far this is the best method yet. I’ll cop a steamer here soon. I like a slight curve so I’m still able to wear my glasses, but I can make it work without the coffee mug. My man, every time you said Chicago Reds hurt me in my soul. It’s Chicago Cubs and Cincinnati Reds. 😂 But I forgive you it’s all in the Midwest.

[@DEVINTAGE]

😂😂😂 oh damn lol idk man I just buy them

[@dgilly716]

Damn that is a PERFECT bend! Help me out..I'm 60 cm so I'm right at 7.5 and 7 5/8. Don't want it super tight or too loose that it falls off if bend head down..which size should I go with? I'm getting reg 59fifty I think over the low profile..help bro

[@ellegryms4538]

For the steam you can boil water just have a pan for like pasta and put water at the bottom let it boil until the steam rises and the you can shape the hat to your liking

[@DEVINTAGE]

🫡 thanks for the tip

[@ghostboy4091]

tea kettle works aswell, i found a large insulated bottle at walmart and curve my brim around that with rubber bands to hold it overnight

[@BBQPitmaster626]

Great video! I am going bald so I will definitely start investing in hats 🧢 so thank you 😊

[@jacknjill3000]

How about if the brim is curved, can you straighten it back to flat?

[@jsanford01]

Overkill bro. Before you go to bed, use a rubberband around the brim (a thick one like you find around a bunch of asparagus at the grocery store), and wrap from corner to brim peak to opposite corner, and you'll wake up to a perfectly curved brim.

[@parkjaein4655]

Thank you for posting a useful video.and have a nice day bro❤

[@juian16k44]

Yo what type of hat do I get to have that shape that your hats have? Is it the 59fifty fitted hat??

Crazy how things go back and forth. When I was a little kid in the late 80's early 90's people liked curved brims but when I was a teen in the mid late 90's even early 2000's we preferred straight brims. I keep it straight! Jersey baby!

[@DEVINTAGE]

Yeah the flat bills were hot when I was going thru high school

[@youser1093]

What's weird is how wrong it looks depending on which fashion is in at the time I remember when fitted caps came in fashion in England were I'm from. I was in my early to late teens and wearing a normal hat with a curved brim looked so weird know it's the opposite

[@Everclear51]

I always curved my fitted caps since the 90s. The flat brim never looked good on my melon 😅

If you arent a rapper than it shouldn't be straight it needs curve

[@3incheggroll]

Did you know baseball caps were all bent in the 50’s this isn’t a new trend lol flat brims are technically a new trend. They mostly come flat, the curved brim is meant to shape the hats specifically to your head shape. Rappers and trappers made it popular in the 2000’s

[@sebastianniqvist3144]

I use 4 elastic band that are flat not the skinny ones and leave them for a couple of days it works fine. But yes, the steam method is unbeatable.

Dope video but imo, that’s too much curve, the best natural curve comes naturally over time, I just bend from the sides a lil bit when I first get the hat but that gives the middle a nice natural curve without damaging the middle

Fair enough!

Its crazy how you made the boston hat still look crispy w/o the steamer

[@DEVINTAGE]

💯💯💯

[@Cam.O.ron63.E.]

No need for a steamer. I've been bending my own brims since before I was in tee-ball. Whether pure wool, polyester, cotton, nylon or a blend of some they all fold and curve essentially the same. If you want to curve it symmetrically without having to even double-check it just flip the cap upside down like a bowl. Then with one hand gripping under the brim, and with your thumb at one side and other fingers at the opposite corners of the brim where it meet the cap, squeeze the corners of the brim together. Kind of making the brim like a hard taco shell 🌮. Line up the edges and bring the rest of the brim edges together. Perfect curve every time. You can do it with your eyes closed once you know the feel of it.

[@DEVINTAGE]

🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@jacobramirez5606]

Just used this thanks man 👍🏽

[@juicicles5881]

Try the 3930! New Era's Stretch fit. The brim is already curved and perfectly functional. By that I mean it works to keep the sun out of your eyes. I get annoyed when people wear flat because you cannot see fly balls that way. I learned to re-curve 5950s a while ago and I'm real glad that I don't have to anymore since they came out. 3930 also can be worn forward or backward, but when you go back it will leave marks in your forehead a bit. It's also not wool so it doesn't shrink when you pop it in the washing machine or diswasher. Wool smelled and held crazy sweat marks. And purple dye got on my face from sweating in 59's in the outfield in HS. Like a middle infielder wearing a glove with a solid web (Derek Jeter and no other SS since at least 5 years before him), way to show everyone that knows what they're talkin' about that you don't. I've buy a Cubs or White Sox hat every year (have mortgage, kid, broke) and I prefer the 39
