Club Obi Wan

Hey guys,
Im just curious if the LC style is supposed to have this? It seems to be off centered, or maybe my head is just crooked? Haha
I can usually get it straight again after playing with it for a little bit, but it seems to go back, also one bash is slightly smaller than the other?
I always grab it by the brim when I put it on...maybe I'm doing something wrong? It's also fairly new, I got it about 3-4 months ago....any suggestions of ideas?
Thanks guys!

Mine certainly aren't symetrical....nor would I want them to be...You got any shots of it?

I get that a lot with hand-bashed hats. It's part of the character, really. The felt is going to be a little freer to behave as it wants (and thus move a little) than on a over-stiffened factory shaped hat. Also, the different sized dents is common with hand-bashes. The best thing to do is to wear the hat in rain or snow, and play with it while it's wet. Perfect symmetry isn't going to happen, but you might get it closer to even with some patience.

Sounds like he's describing the 'turn' to me.

Maybe, but on an LC? I guess it warrants asking; which side does the uneven pinch favor? Left or right of center?

I'll try to get some pics up later. When wearing the fedora, the pinch is moved slightly to my right...so it would be to the left if your looking at me.
Since it goes to the right a little, that side bash is also slightly smaller as a result?

Steve sticks the 'turn' on just about anything he makes out of pure habit.

Have a look on the Indygear Main site....The shots of the LC fedora show it with the side dents all over the place....I really like the bash on the Mystery of the Blues hat...which was off the same block as the LC..(I think)
