Troubleshooting
Hat feels too tight or too loose
The beanie is designed for a snug fit. If it feels excessively tight, try gently stretching the band. If too loose, it may not be the correct size for your head.
Reduced warmth after washing
Ensure you have used a mild detergent and avoided fabric softeners, which can degrade the material's insulating properties. Air dry thoroughly.
Water seeping through after extended use
Check the care label for washing instructions. Over time, the waterproof treatment may require reapplication or the membrane could be damaged. Consult manufacturer guidelines for potential re-waterproofing options.
