Is the brim stiff or sloppy?. After washing?

I have two other sun hats - one with a stiffer brim than the Slogger and one with a floppier brim. Would describe the Slogger as moderately stiff and not really floppy. I haven't washed my Slogger yet, but given fabric, stitching, and other construction features, I anticipate it will hold it's shape with washing.

I did not wear it too long because of its size, and I returned it, and I didn't wash it yet.

I have never been able to wash my hat. Every time I try they would mash up in the washing machine. I live in a tropical area so I do not know if the sun weekens the hat.

I have washed mine two times now. Both times the duvet itself looked a bit wrinkly when i got it out of the dryer, but when i got it on the bed it smoothed out. The pleating did not get out of shape on it. The pillow case covers do somewhat. This last washing, one case looked worse than the other. Not sure why, but they did. If you are a picky person and really like the crisp look, than yes you will have to iron.

I have machine washed and tumble dried mine twice. It still looks good as new.

It is not scratchy, I havent had to wash mine yet. Mine is very new. I think it will just get better with age. It isnt wrinkly and looks nice!

My hat came out of the suitcase about the way I put it in. It is always wrinkled, but I never fail to get compliments on it. I roll it vertically, so that the only chance of wrinkles is on the crown.

My hat arrived "flattened" in a bag, and it pops up fine when I put it on. I've not had a problem with creases in the brim, however. You may want to return it if you haven't already. The vendor should know better.

Yes, I've washed mine a couple times in the washer & dried it on low heat in the dryer. It looks good :-).

I washed it in my laundry machine and it was just fine. I dried it it on tumble dry low and it was still a lil damp so I let it air dry, because I didn't want to over heat the padding in the comforter

I've washed it several times in the machine and then air dried it. The headpiece liner I couldn't figure out how To get off bc it had an elastic securing it that I couldn't get unconnected. I gave up and cut it, and it never affected the way it fit back on. I've washed it about 3 times and it still fits fine and looks good

The hat is not a floppy kind, so yes the brim is relatively rigid. It's not stiff enough to stop from flipping up or down over your eyes in a strong wind. The sizing isn't adjustable, so if the hat fits snug it may stay on while boating, but the pull cord helps in that you won't at least be ordering another one too soon.

It's got a pretty flimsy foam (or something) making up the brim, definitely not 100% cotton. It's very light and floppy... and really really shrink up and deform if you put through a dryer.

Mine does crease, but I was able to shape it. I don't have it with me right now it's packed in a box but I am pretty sure I fixed this by folding it front to back, not side to side. The front bill is the only formed part. but even so the crease I had was not awful. I would highly recommend this hat!

The hat has a bit of a soft rumpled look anyway so I'd say packing it isn't going to be a problem if you can avoid folding the brim. :)

Its very simple. Every time you wash it make sure you dry it completely. It's happened to mine once. Just treat it like any other precious metal object. That's my baby.

I washed on gentle cycle and lightly/fluff dried. I think it could wad and wrinkle if dried on high heat. But so do a lot of comforters.

I haven't had problems with the brim of my hats.I found it's best to wash them either by them selves or with just a few other clothes. Not a full load. I then remove the top portion of the plastic cage & let them air dry using the bottom half to retain their shape.

It's been washed a number of times and still looks great. Each time it's been washed it was placed in a dryer, comes out a little limp but outside of that - no problem.
