Looking After Your Panama Hat:
- Avoid getting it wet or being rained on, as it will lose its' shape.
- To preserve, avoid crushing or scrunching hat, as it may break natural fibres.
- Do not fold this Panama hat.
Cleaning And Reshaping Your Panama Hat:
- Firstly, try to remove any dirt with a dry cloth from the Panama hat.
- If there are more stubborn sections, use a warm damp cloth or facial wipe to gently remove remainder.
- Avoid any unnecessary rubbing as this may cause damage to the natural fibres on the Panama hat.
- To reshape a hat that may have lost some shape, steam on a low setting, then gently dry with a hairdryer.
- The brim can be reshaped by placing a damp cloth on the hat, and iron steaming on a low setting. The iron should never come in direct contact with the natural fibres of the Panama hat.
- Avoid all solvents, soap, or cleaning agents.
