{"product_id":"fedora-hat-shaper","title":"Shaper Fedora Hat","description":"\u003cp\u003eOur fedora hat shaper is a 4-way wooden hat stretcher that helps ease a snug hat and hold its shape between wears. Two pine-look wooden halves and side pieces spread outward together as you turn a dark metal threaded rod by hand, so the pressure goes around the whole crown instead of pushing on one spot.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow the Wooden Hat Stretcher Works\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlace it inside the crown while closed, then turn the rod a little at a time until you feel light resistance against the band. Leave it overnight, check the fit and repeat in small steps if needed. Felt and straw respond best to slow changes; a little steam can help felt relax, but let the hat cool and dry on the shaper before you wear it. Closed, it measures about 5.91 x 7.28 in (15 x 18.6 cm); fully open, about 6.3 x 9.25 in (16 x 23.5 cm).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eColors\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNatural Wood\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhich Hat Sizes the Shaper Covers\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe marked circumference runs from about 21.65 in (55 cm) closed to 25.39 in (64.5 cm) fully open, which spans most adult hat sizes. We show it in cowboy hats, straw hats and baseball caps, and it sits in a felt fedora the same way. Between wears, it also keeps a stored crown in shape.
