FAQs

How do I know if I need to re-wax my hat?

If the hat no longer beads water effectively or appears dry and faded in areas, it may be time to rejuvenate the wax finish. Tumble drying on low heat is often sufficient.

Can I machine wash this hat?

Yes, you can machine wash it on a delicate cycle or hand wash in cold water with a mild detergent. Remember to remove the wind cord and foam insert first.

What does 'Guaranteed for life' mean?

It means that Tilley Endurables guarantees the hat against wear and tear for as long as you own it, excluding normal aging and damage from misuse.

Is the hat suitable for very hot weather?

The hat features grommets for ventilation and moisture-wicking properties, which help with comfort. However, waxed cotton can retain heat more than lighter materials, so consider this for extreme heat.

How do I store the hat when not in use?

Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid prolonged exposure to extreme heat, which can affect the wax finish. You can roll it for storage, but be aware that creases may form in the wax.

What is BCI cotton?

BCI stands for Better Cotton Initiative. It signifies that the cotton used is sourced from farms that work to improve cotton farming practices sustainably.

Will the hat shrink after washing?

If washed and dried according to the instructions (delicate cycle, air dry or low heat tumble dry), shrinking should be minimal. Avoid high heat drying.

Troubleshooting

Hat loses water repellency

Rejuvenate the wax finish by tumble drying on a low heat setting for a few minutes. For a more thorough rejuvenation, consider applying a dedicated wax product according to its instructions.

Hat feels stiff after washing

This is normal for waxed cotton. The hat will soften with wear. Ensure you followed the delicate wash instructions and avoided fabric softeners.

Visible wax marks on clothing

Ensure the hat is fully dry and the wax finish is set. Avoid transferring the hat to light-colored clothing immediately after washing or conditioning the wax.

Wind cord is difficult to adjust

Ensure the cord is not tangled and is threaded correctly through the grommets. The toggle should slide smoothly.
