Cleaning: This hat can be spot-cleaned using cold water and a clean cloth. Do not use any chemical detergent, as this may stain the hat and cause discoloration.
Reshaping: Packing and handling may result in the softening of this hat over time; if this happens, you can use these steps to reshape your hat. When reshaping is required, spray a little water on the hat and use a steam iron on low to medium heat on the inside of the hat and lightly press, being careful not to overpress while the desired shape is achieved; allow the hat to air dry completely away from the direct sunlight, this step will bring your hat back to shape.
Additional Details: Hats are made of natural fibers and colored with vegetable-based dyes. When natural fiber hats are exposed to direct sunlight for extended periods, they may soften, and the colors may fade slightly. This is a normal occurrence due to the nature of the materials used.
