FAQs

What material is the Hicks & Brown Suffolk Fedora made from?

The fedora is crafted from premium wool felt, providing a durable and refined finish.

How do I determine my size?

Measure the circumference of your head about an inch above your ears. The available sizes are Small: 55-56cm, Medium: 57-58cm, and Large: 59-60cm.

Are the feathers on the hat always the same?

No, the hat features natural feathers, so the colors and lengths may vary slightly from the product images, making each hat unique.

Can I wear this hat in the rain?

While wool felt offers some resistance, it is not waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing the hat in heavy rain as moisture can affect the felt and feathers. If it gets wet, allow it to air dry naturally away from direct heat.

How should I clean my wool felt fedora?

Gently brush off dust with a soft hat brush. For stains, use a slightly damp cloth and test in an inconspicuous area first. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing.

What occasions is this hat suitable for?

The Suffolk Fedora is versatile and suitable for a wide range of occasions, from casual outings like dog walks to more formal events such as weddings or days at the races.

Does the hat come with a hat box?

The product information does not specify if a hat box is included. It is recommended to store the hat on a stand or in a suitable box to maintain its shape.

Troubleshooting

Hat feels too tight or too loose.

Ensure you have selected the correct size based on the provided measurements (Small: 55-56cm, Medium: 57-58cm, Large: 59-60cm). For minor adjustments, consider using hat sizing tape on the inside band for a tighter fit.

Feather detail is damaged or detached.

Contact customer support for advice on repair or replacement. For minor reattachments, a milliner's adhesive might be carefully used.

Wool felt appears dusty or dirty.

Use a soft-bristled hat brush to gently brush away dust. Brush in a counter-clockwise direction. For stubborn marks, consult professional hat cleaning services.

Hat has lost its shape.

Avoid crushing the hat during storage. For minor reshaping, carefully use steam (from a kettle or garment steamer) and gently mold the hat back into its original form. For significant reshaping, professional hat blocking is recommended.
