I love the lady trying to remind him to explain what's happening and him just doing his thing
He gets lost in the process.... he truly loves it!!
Enjoy learning from watching you work. I'm watching from Canada, getting ready to try making my first hat.
We love hearing from anyone who has learned from these videos. Please stay in contact and send us pictures of your efforts... hatsbygrizz@gmail.com

Thank you so much for showing this...I appreciate the true nature of the videos and how spur of the moment they are. I found a vintage 100% weatherized wool hat (Rockmount gold rush 1350) specifically and wondering if that material would take to this steam and shape method to fit my head shape better.
Please message us about this at hatsbygrizz@gmail.com
What type of thread is that
artificial sinew
Beautiful video team. I love it.
Beewax works great for holes 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Well that is not the best as it can melt out in heat...
Taste like meat. ❤😮😊

Hola mister me puede vender hormas
Para que le pone las planchas encima?
I love this dude
like these brims more than the sanded ones
If you use a leather sweatband there's an inner lip you stitch into and requires talent to look good. Egyptian Fabric is a excellent choice too since it absorbs persperation better. Old timers used leather sweatbands so they were imported from Europe's culture.
I wish there was stuff like this out east where i am, love that era and everything about it.
We ship all over the world!
@hatsbygrizz-madewithjoy1241 im talkin bout the mountain man rendevous. I actually just got a hat from yall a few days ago, very happy with and left yall a review. Got a classic lil griz in brown, been wearin it nonstop, god bless from ole Carolina.
what a legend
Can’t tell you how much your videos help me in this first year of hat making. I’m still a novice and would love to be a fly on the wall in this workshop but thank you for your awesome videos
Thanks so much and please feel free to contact us anytime at hatsbygrizz@gmail.com. We would love to see some of your creations!!
I ordered mine in “Dirty Snow”. Can’t wait to get it in September!!!!
What kind of hat is the one he is using Looks cool.. GN
What do you do with the trimmings off of hat brims?
firestarter when soaked with lamp oil... for the wood stove
Thus dude is awesome
I wanted to tried this but as the hat had a liner inside I was at a loss as what to do. I didn't want to cut out the liner and rune the hat.
the liners are often glued in with a spot or two of glue.... carefully remove.... you can set it back in later... no damage
Thank you for your awesome videos. I learned how to make hats apply stiffener before I block the hat but it’s proven hard to get wrinkles out after blocking. Just to clarify, you all don’t apply any stiffener before blocking, right? I’ve been thinking about trying this out now I’m definitely going to!!
No... traditionally it is applied AFTER... however most folks order capelines so there has already been a pre-blocking/stiffeneing to it
@ thank you so much, I changed to this method back in May because of this video and it helped my hatmaking immensely . I stiffen myself
What a wonderful exhibition of hatters, Paul Australia
Hi! So you mix the shellac flakes with the stiffener? I'm working with a western weight body and it was nice and stiff before I blocked it. Now its much softer and I'd like to try to get it really stiff again, almost like cardboard haha
no the shellac flakes are the stiffener... they are dissolved in denatured alcohol
thank you!!!!! trying to fix my dads hat that passed away n the leather band is the scary part for me
how did it go? email us about the project at hatsbygrizz@gmail.com
Thank you so much!
What are yalls hoods made of that slip on over your block? In many of the videos they show here on RUclips they only show stretching over block bare blocks and leave out how they actually achieve a perfect fit with the sweat band. So yalls method intrigues me as someone whos wanting to learn this craft.
they are just felt
Looking online alot of hat blocks have a style# on their blocks which I suppose is standard. Making a standard cowboy hat, what # would you recommend?
we use only very old blocks so do not know which style number that would be.... almost all cowboy hats that we make are from our R....round blocks then hand shaped
Hi there does this work with hats made of straw?
you can but have to be much more careful
I always get compliments on the hat of his i ware.
Appreciate the video, in the past I fought with a clothes iron.
Gracias Luguer 🤙
Can you do this if the hat isn’t felt? I have a sombrero that seems to be made of some sort of hard cardboard.
no...that is a flocked material and would not work like this
Noticed that guys name is Galbraith . Mine is Galbreath but seen his spelling in my family tree . Love the hats !
GREAT Video but hard to hear Grizz audio
It's amazing to see that pencil curl put in. I've been wondering how you did it. More hats should have that brim!
Where do you get your hat blocks from? Or do you have any for sale
Ours are mostly antiques... there are some selling vintage blocks online and some hat block makers...both in wood and in plastic
Does this also appy to wollen hats? I've heard wool gets tighter with agitation, water and heat
yes, the same process...just not too hot or too long in the water
Personally, I do like the video, but I would prefer more talking like you normally do
I really love Lil Grizz and always show up for all of his content but I honestly can not stand that camera operator. After scrolling through the comments on previous videos it seems that the overall general public agrees with me on that. In fact I find more comments about the camera operator not shutting up than I do about Grizz or the hats and that's a real shame because he's one of the last great hatmakers we have left and we can only see and hear him through the filter of this camera operator who simply must make every filmed moment about her. I have watched the videos featuring her and her sweatbands and yeah none of us are here for that. We want to see and hear Grizz. I guess if she can't control herself enough to get through these short videos without talking then at least invest in an equalizer so her voice isn't 80db louder than his. It makes it horrible for headphone users and makes him impossible to hear over her. Anyway much love and respect to Grizz and the work he is doing. Please get someone else to film or run the audio through an equalizer before posting because sadly a lot of that knowledge and personality is totally lost and hidden behind the other, much louder, voice that we didn't come here to hear.
I'm glad you beat me to it! I was about to type out a long comment like this about the same thing now I'm glad I don't have to. I get she is having fun but she is really ruining his videos and has been for a long time now. She is so much louder than him and talks way more than he does. I think you right about the EQ. it would literally solve 80% of the issues, although just being quiet and letting the master hatmaker explain his work would be best.
Hello. This is lander red the resident hat maker for grizz. I felt I should leave some context. For starters the "camera operator" as you chose to call her is mizz grizz. She's grizzs wife and also the driving force behind our online sales and the entire reason this channel exist in the first place. I bring this up because the reason she keeps "yapping" as you'd probably say is because these aren't planned out content but rather spur of the moment recordings between a husband and wife just trying to show a bit of what they do. Also to explain the audio. We just record these on a phone when ever we see an opening to do so, we already are busy with the business so we see no need to drop everything to become content creators too. I don't mean to come off as to rude. But felt to need to stick up for my fellow worker, not only because I care for her. But also for the fact she's the one who wanted to put the info out in the first place . Have a nice day!
I don't see you teaching shit lol didn't your parents ever teach you to keep your mouth shut if you ain't got anything nice to say? Folks like you is why there's no hat makers left, everyone getting shit on for trying to teach.
Boy!!!...you have that totally backwards... Lander Red is a skilled maker and teacher of the traditional hat making skillset. .... Mizz Grizz
That orange hat is definitely somthing lol
Love it! 😂
Thanks
Happy belated birthday, Lil Grizz. My Husband, daughter, her boyfriend and I enjoyed meeting you (a Legendary Hat Maker) last night at Bear Creek just outside of Branson. We enjoyed our conversation with you. You are a special person. God’s blessings to you and Miss Grizz. Safe travels.
That is such a lovely spot! Thanks for commenting! Be sure to follow us on other social platforms!
Where do you pick up one of them irons from?
some are anique and some we have made for us
Do y'all have any videos of y'all shaping a "down unda" hat? That is going to be the hat I'm gonna order from y'all in a couple months
Straight to the point , options . Can’t ask for more ❤ from Texas .
What sweatband material are you using?
It is our own unique comfort sweatband....we designed it and make it ourselves out of the best materials we can get.
This is a great demo - thanks! I am about to try putting a new sweatband in a beat-up western hat I am restoring. An antique mall $20 find.
I need me a real hat , hopefully soon can't wait
Well done Mizz Grizz!
