How to shape a Maverick Hat

Most of our hats have wire in the brim for easy shaping.

First straighten out any kinks in the wire.  If the hat is badly misshapen flatten it out entirely.

Hold the hat in front of you with the front of the hat  facing out.  Put your hands on the wire edge of the brim.

Roll your hands gently inward until the desired curve is achieved.  Be very gentle and work the wire, not the straw or fabric, to avoid cracking the straw or the paint.

Turn the hat to bend the front and back to the desired dip.
