FAQs
What material is the Barbour Kirkstone Fedora made from?
The hat is primarily made from 88% Paper and 12% Polyester. It also features 100% Cotton for the outer and inner trims.
How should I clean this hat?
The hat should be wiped clean only. Use a damp cloth and avoid soaking the material. It is not machine washable.
Is this hat suitable for very hot weather?
Yes, the hat is designed for warmer days and features breathable materials to help keep you cool.
Can this hat be folded or packed easily?
While somewhat flexible due to its material, the structured brim means it should be packed with care to avoid creasing or damage. It's best not to fold it forcefully.
What size options are available?
The product information specifies 'Size Medium' for one variant, suggesting multiple sizes may be available. Please check the specific product listing for available sizes.
Will this hat protect me from rain?
The hat offers sun protection. It is not designed to be waterproof and should not be relied upon for protection in rain.
Troubleshooting
Hat has lost its shape.
Gently reshape the hat while slightly damp and allow it to air dry completely. For minor creases, a very low-heat iron on the inside lining (if accessible and with caution) might help, but avoid direct heat on the outer material.
Hat feels stiff after cleaning.
This can occur if the paper content dries out. Sometimes, a very light conditioning with a leather conditioner (tested on an inconspicuous area first) or a specialized hat protector can help restore flexibility, but this is not a guaranteed fix for paper-based hats.
Discoloration from cleaning.
Ensure you are using only a clean, slightly damp cloth. Avoid any cleaning agents unless specifically recommended for paper/polyester blends. Test any cleaning method on an inside or hidden area first.
