What this one
actually does

Three questions we answer on every hat before you buy it. A hat that cannot answer all three is not listed at all.

Rain

The stiffener softens when this hat is soaked and the blocked shape can settle out of true as it dries. Dry it upside down in shade for a full 24 hours and press the crown and brim back by hand while the felt is still slightly damp.

Crushing

Do not fold or compress this hat. Stiffened felt does not return — once it is creased out of shape, it stays creased. Carry it in a box.

Shedding

New wool felt releases loose surface fibre for the first two to three weeks. Brush the crown and brim in one direction with a soft brush after each wear until it settles. On dark clothing you will see the fibre before it stops.

About this hat

A hard round dome and a 5 cm brim rolled tightly upward at the sides. The rigidity is the whole character of the shape — a soft bowler is not a bowler.

Heavily stiffened, which means it does not fold, does not roll and does not recover from being sat on.

Care

Drying: Air dry upside down in shade over 24 hours and reshape by hand while slightly damp.
Brushing: Brush in one direction with a soft brush; work the rolled brim edge separately.
Storage: Store in a rigid box. This shape does not survive being stacked or compressed.
