Fellow hat hater here.

That said, our hats (all approved versions) are POS from a quality standpoint.

My hat looks like sh!t, but I thought it was because I mash it into my bag whenever I want to travel incognito.

Seagull: Pilot, where's your hat?
Pilot: Its in my bag, sir.
Seagull: Why isn't it on your head?
Pilot: Because my head won't fit in my bag, sir.
Seagull: Case dismissed. Carry on.

Seems like after the hat gets wrinkled there is no going back. Tried to iron my hat and failed to get it crisp. Tried again with a hand steamer and failed. Ended up buying a new hat. Anybody had any success?

Nah they're all POS. Not just the fabric but the cheap floppy flexifoam ring and most if not all have the bills sewn on slightly offset, buttons don't align symmetrically etc.

The secret is to keep an emergency pizza tightly wedged in the cloth. Great results!

The secret to keeping your hat looking new is not jamming it in the back pocket of your bag.
