Flat brim ball caps will be stained with sweat, dust and grease after being worn for a long time. If not cleaned in time, they are prone to deformation, fading, and even breeding bacteria. The correct cleaning method can extend the life of the hat and keep the shape straight.

 

Hand washing steps

Pre-treat stains

Gently brush off the surface dust with a soft brush or damp cloth

Stubborn stains can be dotted with a small amount of neutral detergent (laundry detergent/shampoo)

 

Soaking and washing

Cold water + a small amount of detergent, soak for 10 minutes

Gently rub the brim and sweatband with your hands

 

Rinse and dry

Rinse the foam thoroughly with clean water

Dry with a towel

Dry naturally and avoid exposure to the sun

 

Precautions for machine washing

Must put it in a laundry bag and select "gentle mode"

Use only cold water to avoid deformation caused by hot water

Do not dry! High temperatures will shrink the hat
