FAQs
How should I look after my Light Saddle hat to keep it in good nick?
Brush off dust or dirt with a soft hat brush after use.
Can I wear it in the rain or wet weather?

How should I store the hat when I’m not wearing it?
Keep it in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place. Use a hat box or hat rack if you have one, or place it on it's crown to help maintain it's shape.
