Small, careful habits help a cap keep its colour, fabric finish and shape. The right care depends on the material, so always check the product details first.

Everyday cap care

  • Spot-clean gently where possible.
  • Avoid machine washing and tumble drying.
  • Air-dry in shade if cleaning is needed.
  • Store caps away from direct heat and rough surfaces.

Material-specific tips

Cotton can usually handle gentle hand cleaning. Cord benefits from a soft brush along the ridges. Velvet should be brushed lightly in one direction and spot-cleaned only.
