"Jocked" Balmoral Streched
After "jocking" the balmoral I purchased from USA Kilts it seems to have stretched slightly. When new, it sat about one finger width above my eyebrows and felt slightly loose. Now it slides down over my eyebrows and touches the tops of my ears. There is no gap at the back of the headband like there appears to be with the Robert Mackie's.
I soaked the balmoral in cold water for about 9 hours and then put it in the spin cycle of the washing machine. I then shaped and wore it for part of the day. After noticing that it felt a little "loose" it took it off thinking the head band might shrink a little more. It didn't.
Should I try a warm water soak?
