: Good question, when talking to a HJ representative I was told the opposite actually happens....with regular wear the hat will actually spread a bit from use...however, who knows if it gets wet. The fit should feel snug but if you feel a dull throbbing in any part of your head from wearing it for a time chances are it may be too snug. It can be stretched at a hat shop one or two sizes...

My limited experience with fedoras tells me they do shrink when you are not wearing them. For example, if you get it wet and then just put it in your closet it will probably shrink a bit, but the more you wear it the more it will stretch to the size of your head.

Cheers,
