Removing Just A Bit Of Fedora Distressing

Post by cropdustdair »

Hi all! If a fur felt fedora ends up with possibly too much dirt or distressing for your liking, is there a good way to remove excess of it to get it to where you want? Not just off the fur, but possibly off the ribbon as well. Just curious to know any useful methods. Thanks in advance! :TOH:

A good hat brush should do pretty well

Also, a good walk in the rain will wash off a nice amount of it. :TOH:
