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 –
splurge on the professional cleaning. We called three cleaners and the price for a basic cap was from $2.50 to $5.00.
For a suede cap it'll cost you more like $15.00.

 
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.
