FAQs

How do I determine the right size for my hat?

Measure the circumference of your head about one inch above your ears and eyebrows. Compare this measurement to the sizing guide provided (Small: 55-56cm, Medium: 57-58cm, Large: 59-60cm).

Can I wear the hat in the rain?

It is not recommended to wear the wool felt fedora in heavy rain, as excessive moisture can affect its shape and structure. Light drizzle should be managed with care, and the hat should be allowed to air dry properly afterwards.

Why do the feathers vary in colour and length?

The hat is adorned with natural feathers, which by their nature have slight variations in colour, size, and texture. This ensures each hat has a unique and individual embellishment.

How should I clean my Suffolk Fedora?

For general maintenance, use a soft hat brush to remove dust. For tougher marks or stains, it is best to seek professional hat cleaning services. Avoid using water directly on the wool felt.

Is the plum colour suitable for all seasons?

The rich plum colour is particularly well-suited for autumn and winter. However, its classic appeal makes it a versatile choice that can be worn year-round to add a touch of sophistication.

What is the difference between the Plum and other colour variants?

The Suffolk Fedora is available in various colours, including this Plum variant. Each colour offers a different aesthetic, with Plum providing a deep, rich tone perfect for cooler months. Other colour options may offer different styling possibilities.

Troubleshooting

Hat loses its shape

Gently reshape the hat while slightly damp and allow it to air dry on a hat stand or form. Avoid using direct heat.

Feather embellishment is damaged

Handle feathers with care. For minor damage, you may be able to gently reposition them. For significant damage, professional repair might be necessary.

Hat feels too tight or too loose

Ensure you have selected the correct size according to the provided measurement guide. If minor adjustments are needed, hat sizing tape can be used inside the band.

Wool felt appears dusty

Use a soft-bristled hat brush to gently brush away dust in a counter-clockwise motion.
