How to carefully store your hats?

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 thus a better 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 easy storage and access, but this will cause a bump in that spot. It's 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 set it down. Place it upside down on the surface.

Storing your hats: what for?

There are a multitude of different types of hats, from the cap to the beret, including the trilby, the bucket hat, the straw hat 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.

Properly storing your hats has a clear advantage when it comes to their lifespan. Indeed, when they are protected and placed correctly, even when not being worn, it helps limit signs of wear and other impurities that could damage your accessory. This way, you can space out your cleaning sessions since the hats will have been protected from external aggressions. On the other hand, when hats are not worn, they may tend to sag and become misshapen if not stored properly. Once deformed, some hats are difficult to restore, so it's important to store them adequately. We offer you here various solutions to store your hats in a way that will allow them to accompany you for as long as possible.

Varied storage possibilities

As mentioned previously, hat boxes are a first alternative that will allow you to protect your hat from external aggressions, especially dust which can become invasive if you don't wear the hat regularly. Moreover, you will find different types of boxes to adapt to your various hats.

Besides boxes, several possibilities are available to you for storing your hats. If you own several, you can place them on a dedicated shelf, which can be placed wherever you wish in your home (dressing room, bedroom, or even entrance hall). To ensure they maintain their initial shape in all circumstances, it is advised to stuff them with paper or plastic. This way, they will be stored without damage, while offering you a most original decoration for your interior.

Moreover, with the same idea of combining storage and decoration, you will have the option to choose a wall arrangement. In this case, several options are available to you.

Nails

Practical and quick to set up, nails only require a simple hammer blow where you want to place them, and thus, your hat. Like a picture frame, the hat will decorate your walls in an original way.

Coat hooks

Known to be placed in entryways, these can accommodate your multiple hats in an orderly and practical manner. You can also choose individual hooks, made of wood or metal, to arrange as you wish, in order to distribute your headwear across a wall width.

The wire mesh

Among the possible tricks for storing your hats in a unique way, we find wire mesh, sometimes used to hang photos, jewelry, and other decorations. Made of wood, metal, or other materials, it can hold your hats on the wall using thin clips. Easy to access and stylish, wire mesh is one of the most popular ideas in recent years among hat enthusiasts.
