Stretching a Palm Leaf

I like Sunbody's cloth sweatband. It gets to smell'n a little but its comfortable and I can always dunk it in a tank or wash with soap in the sink to get the smell out.

I was always told to never hire a man that wore a straw hat, had leather shoe strings, or rolled his own smokes. The guy with the straw hat was always chasing it down. The guy with the leather shoe strings was always tying his shoes, and the guy that rolled his own was always busy building a smoke. :) :)

Very funny...

Atwood's are woven tighter than Sunbody's but I would soak in really good and put a hat stretcher in it until it dries. If it is only off a little just wear it till it dries. If you use a hat stretcher only stretch a little bit at a time until it fits good. If you stretch it too much you may never get it shrunk to fit again.

I had one I left in the rear window of a sedan on a hot day, and it shrunk it. Your webpage got in my pocket. I ordered a hat, stretcher and vest.

If your hat stretcher doesn't work maybe you could try a head shrinker. :wink: :lol: :lol:
