    These legit work very well, especially if you wet the hat before stretching, then steam it a bit, and use a wrench to turn the turnbuckle a bit more. I'd rather stretch a too small hat than try to shrink or stuff a too large one, and I've done both.

    Hey, Small Feet Big Heat! Great directions and tips. Using a steam iron, bottled water, and a stretcher identical to yours I am increasing the size of my Paramour's wool felt fedora to fit his big ole head! Now to wait the 48 hours!
    You made what could have gone so wrong Very Easy!
    Thanks!

    Thank you for the demonstration vid! I just got a stretcher from Hat Club. Can you stretch your hat more than once if it shrinks back down? And do I have to curve my hat like yours to use a stretcher? I like my bill with just a slight curve. Thank you again.

    • @SmallFeetBigHeat
      @SmallFeetBigHeat  24 дні тому

      @@DMitch-ny3jb the hat can be curved or flat, it doesn’t matter. You can stretch it again if it shrinks back but if you leave it on the stretcher for long enough like I mention in the video, you won’t have to do that and can just shrink it one time and be done.

    Has no one made the ‘small feet big head’ comment yet? lol
    Useful vid though - I’ve got a bunch of hats that are just *slightly* too tight to be comfortable (big feet, freakishly large head) and hope to be able to wear them again soon! Thx :)

    Nice hat stretcher and it’s like buying pants un hem and sizing to your fit. Partly bc many of these fitted hats are not consistent.

    • @jacknjill3000

      Oh and the twist method works, but they should make one with springs.
