LOOKING FOR COST EFFECTIVE ALTERNATIVES?

You can order the same crown block design only made from biodegradable PLA plastic: Open Crown Block STYLE 52 P

Wooden hat blocks will have a longer lifespan and have other outstanding qualities but PLA hat blocks is a great alternative if you are just starting out in hat making and need cost effective options or are an experienced hat maker but need a hat block design or size that you will not require that often and want to keep the expenses low.
