HAT PROTECTION INSTRUCTIONS 

Try not to tighten the front of the crown too much as this will cause the front of the hat to break. It is better to lift the hat from the brim or from cutting the crown with an open palm.

RECONSTRUCTION IN THE SHAPE OF THE HAT 

If and accident ocurs and for some rason your hat loses its shape, in order torestore it follow the instructions below. Slowly place it near the steam on boiling water and then shape shape the hat back by hand back to its original shape. Then you can dry tha hat with a hairdryer at a very low temperature and it will keep the shape.

If the lip is deformed, you can iron the lip under a slighly damp cloth with the iron in a medium to low setting(high temperature can cause burnmarks on the hat). Next, your hat must be placed on a preperly shaped object such as a bowl and dried to regain its shape.

CLEANING

If your hat gets dirty, you should first try to remove the dirt by dusting it lightly with a dry cloth. If the mark is difficult to remove this way, you should try using a damp cloth or wiping it with a baby wipe. This should remove most of the marks, although be careful not to rub too hard. We recommend that you do not use soap and water.

DETERMINE YOUR SIZE

In order to know your hat size, it is necessary to determine the circumference of your head and this is very simple as detailed below: take a measuring tape and firmly but not very tight, surround your head with the tape. Start from your forehead at about ¾” over your eyebrows and go around about 1/8 ”above your ears and the furthest part of your head, then check your size match in the size chart. Then consult the table below to know if you are wearing XXS, XS, S, M, L, XL, XXL, XXXL. The sizes vary as there may be one size with an internal adjustment strap.
