Care Instructions for Canopy Bay-by Deborah Hutton

FLEXIBRAID

Travel Friendly

Designed for your travel adventures, the crown of your Flexibraid hat is designed to fold flat inside your suitcase.  Should any irregularity appear, a warm iron, gently applied will, will improve its finish.

To clean your Flexibraid hand wash in mild soapy water, reshape whilst wet, then allow to dry naturally.

RAFFIA BRAID

Handle with Care – Not to be flat packed

Raffia Braid is a hand-woven, natural fibre.  These hats have a casual aesthetic and a certain amount of informality in shape can be expected over time.  They should not be packed flat into a suitcase for travel.  If your hat develops some creasing, a warm iron, gently applied, will improve its finish. We do not recommend getting your Raffia hat wet, if you do pat it dry with a towel. Whilst the hat is drying use your hands to reform the hat to its original shape.

To clean your Raffia hat – spot clean with a soft damp cloth and mild detergent, then allow to dry naturally. For any stains consult a professional dry cleaner.

RAFFIA STRAW

Handle with Care – Not to be flat packed

Though being able to handle wear and tear, Raffia Straw is a hand-woven, natural fibre.  Hats should not be packed flat inside a suitcase for travel. We do not recommend getting your Raffia hat wet, if you do pat it dry with a towel. Whilst the hat is drying use your hands to reform the hat to its original shape.

To clean your Raffia hat – spot clean with a soft damp cloth and mild detergent, then allow to dry naturally. For any stains consult a professional dry cleaner.

Storing Hats

We recommend storing your hat in our hat boxes. This will keep your hat clean and preserve its shape. Alternatively, store it on a flat surface and avoid hanging it on the wall to prolong your hat's life.
