Brim rolling up

Hi guys

I am spending part of the day scrolling thru the "what hat are you wearing today...." thread, on the recommendation of some of you.


The front brim of my Panama has started to roll up. I cannot seem to get it to stay down; how can I fix this?

I just reshaped the brim on my panama using steam from a kettle last week. Worked fine. Just hold the brim in the steam for a few seconds, reshape, hold until cool and it should be fine.

I too have smoothed and tailored Panama brims with a little steam. No problem. Just be gentle and work slowly. ;)
