care instructions
After an unexpected summer shower, which will not harm the hat itself, but rather its shape, please let it dry at room temperature, do not blow-dry it or put it on the heater
This hat should also not be left in the car, especially in summer
If the hat is worn a lot, depending on the level of contamination, the hatband should be changed every 1-2 years in a milliner you trust
Over time, the brim of this hat may lose its shape slightly (start to 'flop' a bit). If this happens, you can iron the brim straight again on a flat surface (table top or ironing board). Please use the steam function of the iron and an additional cotton cloth to protect the material.

And now?
As soon as you have ordered the hat, I will send you a kit by post and a video by email that you can use to make a mold of your head at home. You then send this back to me by post so that I can make a wooden strip from the shape of your head. I will place this into the hat during production so that the hat is not only perfect in terms of circumference, but also in terms of fit.
Before you order this model, please measure your head size to help me make your new headgear in the right size
