How should I store my summer hats?
Summer hats, can last for a number of summers if they are properly cared for. Casual raffias, coarsely woven panamas, braided, stitched, and sewn straws are made to be hardy and easy to live with. They can be brushed off, stuffed with tissue paper and stacked on top of each other (be careful not to squish upturned brims) in a closet or in a box. Most casual fabric hats can be given the same treatment. Formal dress hats need more attention.Answer: All of our hats are one size fits most.
