Recommendations for Hat Reblocking

Post by IndyRiv »

Hello my friends!

It’s been a long time since I’ve posted anything and, like with anything, am coming at this all again with rusty knowledge. So forgive me in advance.

I just purchased an Advintage hat from someone not long ago. It’s pure beaver and, I knew beforehand, would be too big for me. I bought it with the intention of having it reblocked down to my size. I contacted Advintage, but they’re not taking work from anyone outside the EU right now. Which leaves me with the US.

Who would you recommend for doing such work on a hat of this quality. Excited to get it resized and wear the H$!! out of it. (I own numerous hats but still don’t have a daily wearer. Just been too afraid to put them through the ringer- a part of my collectiphobia).

Thanks in advance.

Best regards.
