HAT CARE GUIDE

-

How do I clean my felt hat? 

There are three tools a horse hair brush, a lint roller, and a bit of high grit sandpaper (220+ grit). 

1. Use a horsehair brush or hat cleaning sponge to knock off larger debris and get into the creases. 

2. Lint rollers are great for picking up any deeper ingrained particles.

3. Sand paper is used to buff out stains. 

4. If you do get a stain on your hat, wait 24 hours before buffing. 

5. Brush felt counterclockwise to finish! 

 

How do I clean my straw hat? 

We recommend a simpler technique. Use a moistened paper towel to wipe any grime from your hat. You do not want too much moisture to absorb into the straw weaving. It will distort the shape and discolor the straw. 

 

Did your brim fall out of place? 

Use a little bit of steam to get it back in place! Steam will soften the felt or straw to become pliable again. Once you straighten the brim using a little bit of pressure/counter pressure, let the hat dry and it's all done! 

 

*Hats are not waterproof. Please do not wear in heavy rain or extreme humidity.
