FAQs
Is this hat machine washable?
It is recommended to hand wash your Tilley hat to preserve its shape and the integrity of the specialized fabric treatments.
Does the hat float if I drop it in the water?
Yes, the hat is designed with buoyant materials specifically to ensure it floats if it falls into the water.
What is the UPF rating?
The hat has a UPF 50+ rating, which is the highest possible rating for sun-protective clothing.
Can I wear this in heavy rain?
The DWR finish is designed for light rain and moisture. In heavy, sustained rain, the hat may eventually become saturated.
What is the hidden pocket for?
The internal pocket is designed for small, flat essentials like a key, credit card, or a small amount of cash.
Troubleshooting
Hat feels too tight after washing
While damp, gently stretch the crown of the hat by hand to restore its original shape before air drying.
Wind cord is irritating the neck
Use the tuckaway feature to store the cord inside the hat when not in use, or adjust the sliders to ensure the cord sits flat against the skin.
DWR finish not repelling water
Over time, the DWR coating may wear off. You can re-apply a fabric-safe water-repellent spray to restore the water-shedding performance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your hat lasts for years, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Sizing: Because the hat is not adjustable in circumference, ensure you have measured your head accurately according to the manufacturer's size chart.
- Cleaning: Hand wash in cool water using a mild detergent. Avoid bleach or heavy detergents that can break down the DWR coating.
- Drying: Air dry the hat by shaping it while damp. Avoid using a clothes dryer, as excessive heat can shrink the material and damage the structural integrity.
- Storage: When not in use, store in a cool, dry place. Avoid folding the brim tightly for long periods to maintain the original shape.
