spray distilled water on the crown and pop out the creases as best you can.....maybe stuff with newspaper to keep them out. try to return it to its open crowned state (i'm assuming that it was bashed without the turn). when it dries.....rebash off center. put it on your head open crown, and then tu...

put your hat on straight. bash in a standard snap brim. turn it. the right side should automatically give this effect due to the change in ovalarity (is that a word?) in the crown. if you want to get a bang on SOC look however, you won't achieve that with a new hat where the brim break is a crisp 9...

First of all, do you mean "turned hat" instead of "burned hat?" There's a HUGE difference between the two! :shock: If the hat needs to be tight on your head in order to achieve this kind of result with the turn . That, and the shape of your head against the hat will also affect ...

Agreed. Put a pot of water on the stove and allow to come to steam. Hold your hat over the vapor, and it will activate the stiffiner in the felt. Push out the wrinkles as the felt softens and warms.
