🧼 3. Cowboy Hat Maintenance Tips

Cowboy hats are a fashion investment — keep them flawless with these care tips:

✨ Basic Hat Care:

  • Handle with clean hands to avoid oil transfer

  • Always hold by the brim, not the crown

  • Store in a cool, dry place, away from sunlight

🧽 Cleaning By Material:

  • Felt: Brush in a counter-clockwise motion with a hat brush

  • Straw: Use a soft damp cloth; avoid over-wetting

  • Suede/Leather: Spot-clean with a suede eraser or specialty cleaner

🧢 Shape Retention:

  • Store upside down on the crown or on a hat stand

  • Avoid stacking other items on top

  • Use hat shapers or stuffing to maintain inner form

💃 4. Swag+Chic Styling Secrets
