A folded paper tower or thin foam weather strip tape can work well. If these methods are not sufficient and the hat is definitely not your right size, contact us and we will gladly arrange to exchange it for you. Our hats are designed for a more casual look. If you want your hat to have a more military look, you can add a small thin piece of plastic inside the hat behind the crossed anchor embroidery, and secure it with a small pin in the center of the embroidery, such as an American flag or one representing the military or a service organization.
