When I wash my hats and ball caps I ruin them. Wash them and they always come out wrinkled and virtually ruined. Then I pay another 10 to 50 bucks for a new one. What can I do to save my hats!

If you're not careful, your hat can lose its shape after you wash it. It could also shrink or become permanently damaged from washing. Our system of drying lets you stop worrying about the drying part and makes your hat look as good as it can look. See below how to wash your hat.Our drying method works for basically all cotton or wool hats and caps, baseball hats, golf hats, fishing hats, sun hats, army hats and caps, police caps, football hats and caps.

Do...

Is it a Wool Hat?
See what it's made of... Wool needs to be washed in cold water or it will shrink. So, you're looking at washing your wool hats by hand, and our drying system is the best way by far to make a wool hat look good again. DO NOT wash wool hats
in a machine... wash by hand only and DO NOT DRY in a Dryer.

Check the washing instructions.
They're there for a reason. If it says dry clean only, then dry clean only. Experts say this is usually the case with more expensive hats, so chances are if you spent a bit of money on your hat, you'd like to keep it looking nice – use professional cleaning only. We called three different cleaners and the price for a basic cap was from $2.50 to $5.00.

Use the washing machine:
Wash your hat in warm water and a gentle soap, on a gentle cycle, in a washing machine (Do Not Dry). The washing machine method works best for hats (other than wool) as it allows any creases in a hat to better "lose" their shape and helps give you a better looking hat when drying using our drying method.

Use the dishwasher:
Some say the dishwasher works best for cleaning most hats. Wash your hats by themselves! Then use our drying method for the best look possible.

Wash by hand:
If your hat has a spot or just a lot of grime on the sweatband, you may want to take care of it with a gentle washing product. Wash the affected area with a toothbrush or by hand. Then rinse the just washed area. Don't put the whole hat
in water, but if you do, just use our simple and easy method to dry it right. And, you can use our drying system even if
you want to dry just the band part of your hat... that will make it nice and flat like new.

Wash your hats sparingly:
Washing your hat may ruin it outright, the hot water in a dishwasher or washing machine or if you're washing by hand
take its toll. Some hats, even some cotton hats, use plastic stitching that will eventually crack after a few washings.

Never wash it:
You could just let your hat get so dirty no one wants to touch it but you. If you're really worried about wrecking your hat by washing it, wear it till it falls off, or just get it thoroughly wet and then use our easy drying instructions to dry it without any wrinkles...
it will still be dirty but it sure will look better.

Don't...

Don't put your hat in the dryer and don't be reckless about washing wool hats... wash wool hats by hand in cold water
or take it to the dry cleaners. Otherwise, use our drying instructions and your hat will look good again.

Now, if you are a lady and are reading this, you may think, "I'll wash it while he's not wearing it and he'll never know!".
You might be right. But it's better just explain our system to him and he'll be happy to let you "make it look new again".
And, he might even do it himself!
