Reading this makes me think I owe Mr Penman an apology for my earlier post which may have seemed to criticise his creation. My post was only intended to show a way of getting around the problem of lack of feet most stretchers have. I can't comment on any of the other design features as I have never had to use a stretcher before as my one fedora has never had any shrinkage problem as it only shrank the half size I wanted it to to fit me.airforceindy said:Anybody ever heard the term "If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all"? What if we tried "Marc and John, that's a really nice piece of workmanship you've got there, and I can appreciate the thought behind it, but it's just a little to far out of my price-range." Seriously, some people (grown men!) around here whine like a bunch of armchair quarterbacks... I don't see anybody else around here making improvements to a product that people have complained about in the past, yet you want to tell John Penman he's doing it wrong? Give me a break...
It's a beatiful piece, John. Unfortunately, the second sentiment I wrote above is my own I'm cut off after the last OR I bought
The rest of you who can't criticize something without ripping it to shreds, just grow up.

As far as this stretcher is concerned I may get one when I buy a Penman hat which I still intend to do one day once I have sufficient funds, which will hopefully be by Christmas.
