Hey I was gonna cop an old wool MLB cap and was wondering if I should get a size down or what?

Theoretically, it should be the same size. If anything, you'd probably want something bigger instead of smaller, because it'll shrink a little bit whenyou sweat.
If the size isn't exactly perfect with the wool caps, there's things you can do to tweak them a little bit. If it's a little too big, wear it afteryou take a shower while your hair's still wet, and it'll shrink.
If it's too small, there are some little white stitches underneath the sweatband in the back that you can break to loosen it up a bit. just put the back ofthe hat over your knee and give it a quick tug. You'll hear what sounds like a rip, and then the hat will be looser. I know it sounds scary, butthey're actually designed to do that.
