I'm digging the crazy cool liners DOGMAN. The sky really is the limit if one wants to make one's own liners. Mine are made with satin taffeta and my trusty inkjet printer for the crown tips. I also sew in clear plastic protectors for the old school look. Definitely not as flamboyant and fun as yours, but I have a rather conservative clientele. IMG_1978.jpg IMG_2066.jpg

Thanks,humanshoes they are fun to make.I think your Phoenix liners are cool.Were do you get the clear plastic protectors?
Thanks DOGMAN. A package of clear plastic sheet protectors from the "dollar" store will do 12 hats. I've had one in my first hat for years with no sign of wear or yellowing. You can also buy 20' rolls of Grafix Clear-Lay .003 plastic film on the bay for $12. In answer to the original post, I don't feel much of a difference in the heat level with or without the film. I, like you, don't sew or tape or glue in my liners so I just take them out when the weather gets warmer.

Are those liners made tall enough for the Sombrero, Joao? Might take two or three to cover the inside rotunda of your Sombrero...

I like my hats to be as beautiful on the inside as they are on the outside :)
