These classic gray bucket hats are super easy to use. Just place them on your head for instant style and sun protection. When it comes to maintenance, you can gently hand - wash them with mild detergent in cool water and let them air dry. Be careful not to wring them too hard to keep their shape. Also, remember the California Proposition 65 warning. Avoid long - term direct contact with the hat if you're concerned about the chemicals it may contain. Keep them stored in a dry place when not in use to keep them in good condition.
