    Amish straw hat supplier in France?

    Reshaping a wool Fedora

    Hi folks Are the techniques for reshaping the brim and crease on a wool/fur Fedora the same as a fur one? I've been researching steaming and bashing on the net, and they all show fur hats being converted. So, I'm wondering if I should use the same methods on my wool/fur crushable? cheers

    Just wondering how many of us Brits use this forum. So form an orderly queue, shuffle your feet, and apologise profusely for being in front of the person behind! Oh, and don't even think of starting a second line, as the one your NOT in, always moves faster lol
