Winter Hats vs. Caps: Cleaning Guidelines

If a winter hat is not worn daily, washing it every two months (roughly three times a season) is enough. Many are machine safe, but always read the care label.

Caps require gentler handling. Hand wash twice a year in cold water to prevent staining and preserve shape and color.
