First, gently pop out the dents. Use your hands to massage the hat back into its original shape.
Next, grab a soft-bristle brush and work off the dust and loose dirt. We recommend brushing your hat regularly to keep it looking its best.
After that, spot-clean the dirt and grime using your hat sponge. This is great to sponge away any stubborn dirt from the hard to get corners.
Now, let's apply steam. Use steam across the entire hat to help reset the wool. While it's still warm, massage out any remaining creases. If your like me you prefer a rugged, banged-up look, leave the hat as. Otherwise let’s reset the brim.
To reset a flat brim, lay your hat on an even surface, weigh it down with your favorite coffee table books, and leave it overnight. In the morning, remove the books.
And there you have it—a fully restored felt hat!
