Stains on my hat

Post by Mulceber »

I've had my AB for several years now, and recently I've noticed some stains at the front of the brim - I don't think they're from anything like grape juice, or anything permanent, just the result of me handling it there repeatedly:

Does anybody have any good advice on how to get rid of this? -M

let's trouble shoot this. Do the east stuff first. Did you try brushing the hat well?

I just tried it. It seems to have made things slightly better - the stains aren't as pronounced anymore, but they're still there. -M

There are two ways I can think of to clean it and i think thats all it needs. Is a little cleaning. I would need to see it to tell. thats the bad news but it's fixable. thats the good news.

I wouldn't charge you for it and no need to pay extra fee to get it to me. Just priority mail USPS would be fine.
