A
hat box is a wise investment. Indeed, it only takes a few moments to place it in the box, which will ensure protection against wear and therefore a longer lifespan. You can even stack hats on top of each other by putting foam around the grosgrain to maximize your storage space. 
 
However, if your hat is seasonal and you know you'll be wearing it frequently, you can place it flat and avoid putting it on a hook or coat rack for safekeeping and easy access, but this will cause a bump in that spot. It is therefore better to lay it flat and ideally on the crown.
    • If you don't want to purchase a hat box, you can always store the hat in a bag to protect it against the elements and especially in a place without moths.
    • If you're on tour, a cruise, or anywhere you want to take your hat, don't forget to place your hat on a flat surface.
    • If the brim of your hats slopes downward, make sure you let the slope of the brim hang when you leave it. Place it on the surface upside down.

Storing hats: what for?

There are many different types of hats, from caps to berets, including trilbys, bucket hats, straw hats and many others. Each of them must be properly maintained and cared for, starting with their daily storage, because you don't wear them every day, nor all day long, so it's important to adopt the right storage methods.

Storing hats correctly presents a first undeniable advantage concerning their lifespan. Indeed, when they are protected and placed in the right way, including when they are not being worn, this helps to limit wear marks and other impurities that could damage your accessory. In this way, it allows you to space out your cleanings more since they will have been protected from external aggressions. On the other hand, when hats are not worn, they could tend to sag and deform if they are not stored appropriately. However, once deformed, some hats are difficult to restore, so it is advisable to store them adequately. We offer you here various solutions to store your hats in a way that they will accompany you for as long as possible.
