Care

Steam from a household kettle and a hard bristle hat brush will help banish any dust and dirt from a wool hat. Brush the hat using short strokes.

Wet hats should be dried using a clean, absorbent cloth or sponge. Do not place a felt hat on a radiator as the heat will shrink the fibres and cause your hat to decrease in size.

Felt hats are best stored in a hat box, away from direct sunlight.

Materials

This unlined fedora is made from ultrafine wool.

The use of traditional millinery techniques and a finish of a rope band adds a remarkably feminine texture that enhances this hat's beautiful shape.

Styling & Fitting

Available in burgundy and black, wear this hat straight or slightly tilted for the ultimate style statement.
