How To Care For Your Trucker Hats

Hand wash

Use lukewarm water and a mild detergent to hand wash your trucker hat. This will help it retain its shape and keep the embroidered design looking good.

Quick clean

Fill a sink or tub with cool water and add a couple drops of mild detergent. Submerge the hat, swish it around to create suds, then let it soak for 5–10 minutes. Rinse thoroughly with cool water.

Deep clean

Fill a sink or tub with cool water and add a color-safe oxygen bleach. Dip the hat into the water, then apply a small amount of detergent to any spots.

You should avoid putting trucker hats in the dryer, as the heat and tumbling can cause them to lose their shape. Instead, you can reshape the hat after washing and let it air dry. You can also dry it on a hat form or round container to help it keep its structure.
