The Right Way
Cleaning your baseball hat is important to do every so often, but it’s also important to know how to do it the right way. You don’t want to damage your hat or ruin the shape. Here are a few tips on how to clean your baseball hat the right way.
Step One
Determine what kind of baseball hat you have.
If your baseball hat is made of wool, cashmere, or another natural fabric, it needs to be hand-washed in order to avoid shrinkage. If your baseball hat is made of cotton or another synthetic fabric, it can be machine-washed on a gentle cycle.
Step Two
Use a soft bristled brush (toothbrush) to work the cleaner into the fabric.
Step Three
Rinse the baseball hat in cold water. Be sure to remove all of the soap suds. You can give it a final rinse in cool water from a sprayer attachment on your kitchen sink, if you’d like.
The Wrong Way
A lot of people don’t know how to properly cleaning their baseball hats. As a result, they ruin their hats and have to buy new ones more often than necessary. In this article, we’re going to show you the wrong way to clean your baseball hat so that you can avoid making the same mistakes.
Step One
Before you start cleaning your baseball hat, make sure to check the manufacturer’s label for specific washing instructions. If there are no washing instructions listed, proceed with caution. You don’t want to ruin your hat by throwing it in the washing machine or using the wrong type of detergent.
Step Two
Use a old toothbrush, and scrub in a circular motion around the bill. Try to get under the bill as well, as this is usually where the dirt and grime like to hide.
Step Three
Rinse the hat in clean, cold water. Be sure to remove all the soap suds from the hat. You can use your hands to help work the suds out of the fabric. If your baseball hat is white, you can add a teaspoon of bleach to the rinse water.
