Hat Care
A fine, well cared for fur hat will give many years of lasting pleasure. Your fur hat is designed for active lifestyles and to be worn and enjoyed.
Your fur hat is a fairly durable item and simply must be treated with common sense. Furs like cold, hate heat. They don't like friction, or chemicals. They like space, and to be cleaned.
Be sure to store your hat in a closet, or other dark place that is not exposed to light (which will fade your fur) or heat. Make sure it has room to breathe and is not crushed by other garments.
Avoid insecticides, mothproofing, and other chemicals around on your fur, including perfume, hairspray and makeup. Perfume contains alcohol, which can dry your pelts. Once a perfume gets into your fur, it will be there to stay.
Most furs can handle snow and a light rain with ease. Shake it out and hang it to dry in a well ventilated room. Please resist the temptation to speed the drying process with a hairdryer or near a heat source. Remember furs do not like heat. After it dries you can then shake it again. Comb or brush it gently if the hairs seem a little bristly. If your fur has been soaked thru, however, take it immediately to your fur retailer for proper treatment.
In the off season it doesn't hurt to send your fur hat to your local furrier for professional storage. This is optional but will ensure your hat stays in good condition through the warm months.
If your fur hat gets dirty have it cleaned by a professional fur cleaner. Besides just cleaning, this conditions your fur. Glazing is a process that replenishes oils to maintain a furs longevity. You may consider taking your hat to a furrier.
Dirt and salts can fade and break fur. Between professional cleanings some dirt and sand can be shaken from your coat when the fur is dry. Hold the coat from inside the shoulders and shake it briskly. If your coat becomes stained never try to clean it yourself. Bring it to a fur cleaner.
The above mentioned care instructions are only suggestions. We do not take responsibility for any damage that may result from improper handling.
