Troubleshooting

Hat feels stiff

This is normal for waxed cotton. The material will soften with wear. Avoid machine washing or excessive heat, which can damage the wax finish.

Water spots or marks on the fabric

Gently wipe the affected area with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks, a specialized wax cotton reproofer might be necessary, following manufacturer instructions.

Chin tie is too loose or too tight

Adjust the knot or toggle on the chin tie to achieve a secure yet comfortable fit. Ensure it is snug enough to prevent the hat from falling off in wind, but not uncomfortably tight.
