Hey Gang,
I got this Marathon last year for free but it needs a sweat band, maybe a new ribbon and a good cleaning. Aside from these problems, the hat is solid with no moth damage or other issues. I looked up prices at Clean A Hat and with shipping this would cost around $130. I'm having trouble deciding if this is a sensible thing to do, or would I be better off putting the money towards a different hat.
Your opinions are appreciated.
