    Don't do this just before cadets as it takes a few days for your beret to fully dry out. I'd only do this a couple of times when you first get your beret to make sure it's properly moulded but you're going to have to space it out, over the weekends or something so that it's dry for parade nights :)

    @ravcuk Hey thanks for the tips! Unfortunately we can only wear the berets we get issued and there's some debate about whether or not we're allowed to remove the lining. Our WO will rip the lining out of as many berets as he can whereas our CO tells us to leave it in. I definately would have taken mine out if I thought I could get away with it as it is a lot easier to mould without

    Just kinda perusing here after watching that excellent bulling video. Guys, really. I'm a Canadian Army regular and although the branches have always been rivals, we're all on the same side. Have respect for your comrades! The Navy ships the Army overseas, the Air Force provides that immediate support for operation ranging from close air support missions to casualty evac, and the Army makes sure both have a port or airfield to use. A team divided is not a team at all.

    To make it easier to mold, shave it(you know like you would shave you're face) til it's half the thikness it used to be(remember to soake it first, dry then shave).
    Don't shave all in one turn shave it multiple times! This is what we do in Norway, makes it easyer to mold:) And I would recomend shrinking it, cause that'll allow you to make it a perfect fit!
    Hope this was helpfull to someone :)

    @SlothCatcher Před 13 lety

    Cool video, just a quick tip; if you take the black lining out of your beret it makes it alot easier to mould as the beret is thinner, when the lining is in, the beret is alot thicker and so in my opinion doesnt look as good and cant be moulded that well. Although some squadrons are quite strict about it because in essence you are defacing MOD kit!
