Setup, Compatibility & Care
The Preston Cord Cap is ready to wear immediately upon arrival. To ensure it retains its shape and texture, follow these care guidelines: store the cap on a flat surface or a hook to prevent deep creases, and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can fade the blue tone over time. To clean, use a soft-bristled clothes brush to gently remove surface dust and lint. For spot cleaning, lightly dab the area with a damp, lint-free cloth and mild soapy water; do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this will damage the structure of the brim and the pile of the corduroy fabric.
