Here's what I do. Today I restored and un-worn Cards script.
1. Hat as-is.
2. I roll up a towel and snap the hat TIGHTLY around the towel.
3. Damp towel/cloth. NOT wet. DAMP. Make sure to wring out as much water as you can. I steam iron one panel at a time. This hat only needed resto on the main. Be sure to iron one panel at a time. If you do them all at once you'll likely gets pleats. Again, make sure the panel you're ironing is pulled TIGHT.
4. You can see the dome turn out as expected. Now to flatten the bill. Same damp towel/cloth. You have to work fast. You don't want to spend a lot of time ironing the bill as the steam could ruin the rigidity. Give a good once over so that the bill is pliable.
5. Once the bill is pliable, IMMEDIATELY set it on a flat surface and sandwich it flat. I like to use a 5lb weight.
6. After 30 mins of waiting, voila. Good as new. In this case, it is new as the hat was never worn.

that's a dumb question considering he doesn't make hats... he embroiders his logo on different hats
you'd have to know what brand the original hat was.

TI$A don't manufacture their own hats. The logo is stitched onto random hats. Bought for a couple dollars, stitched with logo and flipped for $$$.

it's like buying from FlightClub if they threw a sticker all over your kicks
makes no sense buying a "deadstock/vintage" item that's customized
he's working on an original clothing line so at least his sheep can wear something original now
