You probably dont care but if you're bored like me atm then you can watch all the latest movies and series on instaflixxer. Been watching with my gf for the last months :)
GUYS, but a garment steamer and use that instead. It will take you literally 20 seconds, and it will curve as much or as little as you need. It’s the best thing for curving the bream.
The stickers are a nostalgia thing for me. I'd see rappers and other grown ups wearing the all black fitteds with the stickers on and it was always so cool to me. So now that I'm older and can afford multiple of these hats I never wanted to take the stickers off.
Completely understand and respect that... I have nothing against flat brims and stickers it's just a generational thing. Jay-Z is the reason I bought Yankees fitteds growing up
The issue with the top new era hat is that it eventually gets worn out and looses it shine and start loosing the print on it. So then you go to take the sticker off then you see a darker circle spot where the sticker was compared to the slightly faded hat.
@@user-ne7nn2df2m Are you saying the hats cost 3000 where you are? If I read that correctly then that's insane. They usually run for $40 USD in the U.S.
If you guys dont have a steamer, grab a spray bottle and make sure it's on the mode where its a mist and spray around your hat, just make sure it doesnt get to wet. Works the same as a steamer.
I went to high school in the 90’s and I always curved my hat or took the sticker off. Even when it was cool to have a flat brim and leave the stickers on the brim. Just wasn’t for me. Glad to see more people curving their brims now
I like my hats like literally the exact same way you just explained!! I love a good curve! Nothing super crazy also I do that same thing I pinch it together like that with my thumb and pointer finger on the sides to give it a nice curve
when I was a kid in little league we would wet the hat under a garden hose ,put a couple of rubber bands on the brim and wear it at practice.After the sun dried it they had the perfect curve and fit just right.
Best fitted curve strategy I've veverf came across & ive been a conessiuer for years keeping my KICKS, and my FITTEDS in prestine condition. Thank you for the rubber band strategy, dude.
I’ve heard steaming them makes it slightly easier so you get a more even bend. I hate flat billed and now I found the proper way to curve them I’m gonna start getting them.
Dude I love this video. I've been more of the flat brim/slight curve hat wearer for years but I started curving the hat and rocking it and it's a good look. Thanks for the video. I'm gonna use this technique.💪
I remember when flat brim was popular I curved them anyway. I don't need some "trend" or "wave" telling me what looks good. Rock what you like and you can never go wrong.
That gripping and bending thing occurs naturally in late innings of baseball or overtime in hockey playoff games.....nervous activity on my hat while I'm living and dying watching my teams! Leafs ,Kings in the 90's....I curved my hat....when it wasn't even a thing! ( Suddenly missing Felix"the Cat" Potvin......really cool mask)
I remember in little league, I used to stick the brim into a drinking glass with straight sides and leave it whenever I wasn't playing lol. The good ole days.
59fifty sells a brim curving strap now, it's just a rubber strap where you put the flat side on top of the brim and pull the snaps together. Works pretty well
Am from the 80's and grew up in the 90's. Curve your brim dudes, it's not cool, it's not clever to wear a flat skip, it's bad news you need a tutorial for this. Thank God this young man is spreading the good word. Stickers off, bend the skip. On June 19th 1846 am certain they bent the skip on their Baseball hats.
The curve is subpar and the brim is wrinkled. Fitted brims are cardboard so they need heat in order to take shape. I would suggest steaming the brim of your fitted first, then shaping the brim to your desired curve. I personally use a 1 litre water bootle w/ an elastic band to give it a precise curve. After you steamed & curved the cap place it in the freezer to lock the cardboard in the desire shape. No hate just giving perspective.
@@illdrumatik391 Dad hats ain’t the same my dude because they're not fitted. And they're meant to be curved hence why MLB baseball players always curve their brim’s.
@@bossmon16 They aren’t meant to be curved or new era wouldn’t have released there 3930s 🤦🏻♂️ bending the brim is a tradition it’s not how it’s meant to be. Hence the horrible creases and many times broken brim.
All you have to do is get the brim hot over steam for 30 seconds, the hold the brim exactly how you want it for a minute until it cools and you're done....non of the info in this video is necessary..... you're welcome! Steam also works wonders for stretching and shaping your caps as well.
I bought a hat thinking looks really cool but never ended up using it because I didn't like the shape. This is perfect it makes it look a thousand times better
Being an ex baseball player, I always had an ace bandage around so I would wrap my bill with that once I got it shaped. Honestly never even thought about rubber bands lol
Please is important answer my ASAP I’m buying a hat .if I do that i Lose the size of the hat for example I bought a hat that fit perfect on me But I’m guessing if I do that the hat is gonna fit small on me please answer !!
Main reason for the stickers off is SUN FADE! I left them on early on when I was young w all my hats. Now those nice vintage hats I’ve had for 20 years have a circle untouched fresh coat of color where the sticker used to be now that the glue is no more. Not that you all will keep your hats this long but all it takes is a couple days out in the sun to fade. Especially in this Cali sun. ;)
You can wet the cardboard under the brim with either water or hair spray and use just the rubber band or a baseball with rubber bands and let it dry for a perfect arch.
thank you so much i prefer to have a curved bill for baseball and our team ordered flat but i thank you for this man you really enhanced the hat experiance with baseball
Got my first fitted a few days ago, i’ve worn it a few times already before finding this video. Do you think the rubber bands will still work properly even though I’ve worn the hat ?
I almost never wear baseball cap This was great tutorial I do not look good in that flat brim Can’t wait to try rubber bands on my Giants baseball hat 😊
Very knowledgeable about hats so great video. Styll Do it Is awesome and I wish their shipping to US wasnt so expensive but they have way better hats than most things in the states.
I'm a fan of flat brim NewEra fitted hats. I'd never curve the brim. Everyone wears thier fitted or snapback hats with curved brims, plus stores sell hats with a curved brim anyway. Flat brim hats suit me way better than curved brim hats. Watching from London UK 🇬🇧
Straight up. Kinda makes me want to punch a wall. Dude is going to have a tutorial on how to bend your brim back and reapply stickers in a few years and that tells you everything you need to know about him and the like. Also only rep my home city unlike these in the closest pretty boys
I don't have these thick rubber bands but I do have thick rubber bands for hair and thin ones, which ones would do better? Also, I saw people putting bottles or something with a circular shape between the rubber band and the hat, should I do that?
If apply the rubber bands and spray a little water on the brim will it help? Currently the brim eventualy loses its curve after I remove the rubber bands. Maybe I'm not leaving the bands on long enough. How long should the rubber bands stay on?
I like my hands to have a slight bend in the brim, but not full on dad hat if you know what I mean. 1 rubber band is prefect for me. Just a slight bend.
Trust me people, just spend the 10 dollars for the Lids brim curver. I use that on the 6th or 7th position when curving and hit it with a steam cleaner while the driver is still on it. Leave for a minute and pop it off, hat is immediately in a perfect curve PERMANENTLY
Does it matter what the brand the hat is because I curved the brim of all my new era hats and they came out fine but when tried to use it on my ever field hat the middle came out weird
I normally wear a low profile 7 1/8. What size should it get for the regular 59fifty? I would like to curve it like the one in this video so not sure how that will effect the size. Should I get the same size as the low profile since it comes precurved? I’m also in Toronto and the Lids stores nearby do not have the ‘96 Yankees World Series cap I want so I will need to purchase online.

Nah u gotta check the steam method
@@saulcorona2672 Steam will ruin the brim you mofo
Dope video my dog! Thank you for the easy and accessible tips!! I can tell you really love your hats too so I know you are delivering the best advice
I rubber-banded my brim to a 7 cup pyrex bowl, one with a flat bottom. The diameter of the bowl felt like the perfect arc for the brim curve!
did it work? Do you have to gage the diameter size to get that perfect curve?
This guy can talk a Buzzard away from a free buffet.

@@Its_Sheroy I tried it without steaming on bs hat I have actually came out really good looking. Great video my man🤙🏻

Best technique I’ve seen for sure. Just copped a new fitted and got my best curve yet with this vid. Thanks g!
i subscribed as soon as he said to take the stickers off immediately
What you should tell people is to size down if you curve your brim. Curving gives you more room and people want a snug fit. 💯
This is fax right here☝️
For some reason my ny subway series pink brim fits best on my head too 😂
I remember when flat brim was popular I curved them anyway. I don't need some "trend" or "wave" telling me what looks good. Rock what you like and you can never go wrong.
They still are nobody brims there hat in the hood lol
That gripping and bending thing occurs naturally in late innings of baseball or overtime in hockey playoff games.....nervous activity on my hat while I'm living and dying watching my teams! Leafs ,Kings in the 90's....I curved my hat....when it wasn't even a thing!

I usually take stickers off retros, vintage hats, or tuck them under the brim depending on the hat
What kind of style are you wearing (Yankees cap)?
How does sizing work? Do u stay true to size and then bend ?
It will be larger.
I’ve done this but I think the steam method works better and a lot quicker.
I have always preferred snap backs
I have the snapback adjustable one and not the fitted one. Will it still look similar if i bend the brim?
always gotta keep the holographic sticker on under the brim 💯 the other ones are personal preference
I don't have these thick rubber bands but I do have thick rubber bands for hair and thin ones, which ones would do better? Also, I saw people putting bottles or something with a circular shape between the rubber band and the hat, should I do that?
In NYC we keep the stickers on our fitteds homie!
So the only hat I’ve noticed tht truly fits my face is A-frame style,if I buy a fitted hat will it give me the same feeling and fit like my A-frames?
