A Few Things to Note About Storing Hats
From fedoras to boater hats, baseball caps to collectors’ items, there are some things that we all need to know about how best care for our headwear.
The first and most important thing to remember when storing your hats is not just how you’re going to store them, but why.
Are they for decoration? Do you want a structured hat that will stand the test of time in storage?
Is it something special so every detail must be perfect before putting it away until next season- or even longer than that!?
The answer determines what methods are best suited.
- When storing hats in a rack or on a wall display, remember to always protect the hats’ original shape. Make sure you don’t fold, bend, or pile your hats in the long time.
- We all are aware that hats are used to protect our heads from the blazing sun, but when they’re kept in storage (or hung in the wall) for a long period of time, it is best to keep the hats away from direct sunlight because the long-term exposure will fade the fabric.
- In order to avoid mold, make sure you don’t store your hats in a drawer or closed boxes. It’s best to keep them out where the air can get at them, but if that isn’t possible, adding silica gels or dehumidifier will help a lot.
