Focus on the inner sweatband and give it an extra scrub to remove built-up oil and sweat.Avoid washing the brim unless it’s exceptionally dirty. Gently wash from the back of the cap to the front. Place the back of the cap in the water – keep the brim out of the water.Soak a small part of the hat (preferably somewhere unnoticeable) to see if the color will bleed.Add a small amount (about a teaspoon) of a mild, bleach-free laundry detergent. Do not use hot water as it may ruin the cap. It’s very important to not get the brim wet and to go about the process with care – it’s not a job that can be rushed. Wool, linen, and cotton flat caps and newsboy caps can be cleaned by hand. This not only helps with the breathability factor but also keeps you comfortable all year round.
All of our Fawler flat caps are handmade in Italy and include a soft, itch-free sweatband.
Keep an Eye on the Lining – Just as important as the outside, the inner sweatband (the fabric band attached inside the cap that sits directly next to your skin) is equally worth your focus. Think of it as something that you consciously choose to wear instead of something you grab on the way out the door. Think of your cap as an accessory and not as an afterthought. Choosing a Pattern – If you’ve chosen a patterned flat cap, make sure that other patterns you wear with it complement each other. Men’s flat caps do wear well with bow ties, braces and vests… but too many may go a bit steampunk costume party. Keep it Simple – Like with a bow tie, avoid pairing too many old-fashioned accessories in one look. Know the Season – Breathable linen and lightweight cotton are perfect for spring and summer, while wool tweed and heavier cotton are great for winter. but think of it as a friendly recommendation. It may seem contradictory to say ‘make it your own’ and then demand that you wear it correctly. Wear It Correctly – No matter what super-fly throwback song is playing in the background, keep your flat cap on the correct way and not in backwards 1990s style. Make It Your Own – Round the brim to frame your face by applying gentle pressure and shaping it to a slight curve. Stick to the originals – tweed (wool), cotton or linen. 
Consider the Classics – Remember that natural materials offer better insulation and breathability.Because this type of cap works with everyday casual looks and when you want to dress up, wearing and styling one is easier than you think.
