Never wear a hat that’s too tight again! Keep your hat in its proper shape when not being worn. It will also prevent future shrinkage during hat storage. The absorbent wood helps dry out the hat band after it is worn so the moisture does not leave an odor behind.

How to store and maintain your hat when unworn:
