Best aftermarket sweat?

[Joel Tunnah]

I'm looking for a replacement sweatband for my Miller. I've seen the hatsupply.com site. Has anyone handled one of those? Any other sources? Obviously I'd like it to be better quality than the thin, stiff Biltmore band.

Thanks!
Joel

Did you want to do it yourself or have somone do it for you? Optimo will replace if for a fee of $20. I think that's on top of a cleaning and blocking. i would guess the process would run you $50 - $60 plus shipping

It's not about the money. I like trying these things myself.

I wonder if you ask if they will just sell you one?

JW Hats?

Jim, of JW Hats, makes sweat bands from scratch for other companies. He'd probably sell you one.

I have photos of his process in the Making a New Hat in the stickies in the Hat section.

Duane, that's kind - but not necessary. I have a few other things I need to order from them anyway, so I'll try hatsupply's out. Thanks.
