Anyone know where to get the heritage jersey?
Anyone know where to get the heritage jersey?
Sorry for the (late) crappy iPod quality pics. These are made in Quebec (and nut-free!). I randomly got the Flames one (my cousins should like it). The only issue is A) insanely high price of $9.99: these should be less than $5. B) The plastic mask is blank and stickers need to be applied. It is light, and around 4 inches tall. Has a tiny stand. C) Even after looking at the promo flyer, I am unsure as to whether there are 30 teams, with the 7 Canadian teams getting Silver bars, and the Kings getting Gold. Or if there are only 8, with 7 Canadian teams plus LA.

I also bought one of these to go with the 59fifty so I could qualify for free shipping. GO KINGS GO

To stretch there are a couple of different ways i've heard. One is to grab the hat where the bill meets the crown, put it over your knee and pull pretty hard. You will hear a snapping noise but that is ok. There's an example of this method in this video as well as another method I have never tried.

Another method I have heard works is to soak the hat in COLD water and wear it until it completely dries. This will take a good amount of time (at least an hour of a wet hat sitting on your head.) I have done this method using HOT water to shrink some hats before and it does work (shrank at least one hat size.)
The way to do it is:
1. If you want both the sweatband part of the hat as well as the crown to shrink/stretch either fill your sink with hot or cold water, depending on whether you want to shrink or stretch your hat, or simply fill the inside of the hat with the hot or cold water as if it was a bowl. If it is only the sweatband part that you want to shrink/stretch take a spray bottle with hot or cold water and spray the sweatband until it is nice and damp. Do not wet the bill of the hat!
2. Once the hat has been soaked for a couple of minutes, take a towel and dab the excess water out of it.
3. Wear your wet hat until it dries so that it shrinks or stretches to your exact head size. You can use a hair dryer to try and speed up the process of getting the hat dry. I recommend wearing a towel around your shoulders because there will be a lot of water dripping from the hat.
4. Enjoy your hat.
Keep in mind that the water methods will work much better on a wool hat. They don't work so well on the hats that are mostly acrylic, such as the newer MLB On-Field hats that have the black under-brim.
Hope this helps!
