Care & Maintenance Tips 💡

Cleaning: Gently spot-clean with a soft, damp cloth. For the pom-pom, use a soft brush to maintain fluffiness and remove dust.

Storage: Store flat or rolled loosely to maintain the beret’s shape. Avoid hanging for extended periods, as this may cause stretching.

Washing: Hand wash in cool water with gentle detergent if needed. Avoid wringing; instead, gently squeeze out excess water and lay flat to dry.

Preservation: Keep your beret away from direct heat sources and excessive humidity. The wool will naturally resist odors and dust, making it low-maintenance compared to synthetic alternatives.
