I ordered a couple of hat forms from Amazon and put them on the top rack of the dishwasher (without dirty dishes). Set them on the counter to dry. Look like new when done.

I throw mine in the dishwasher hung on the sides. I’ve never had an issue with a hat being messed up after being washed.

I clean my white hat with Mr. Clean's Magic Eraser. It works wonders. Also great for cleaning the face of your TSR drivers and golf balls :)

Hats take a beating June thru September here in the lowcountry of S Carolina, when that darn heat index goes over 100 most of the time. If you don't sweat, you just ain't normal. Ring around the cap/hat bill. The black and red hats just fade away into the sunset over the Atlantic. Just like a compadres out there in Texas. Did not realize but Houston metro population is 2M larger than the whole state S Carolina. Just sayin'.

I've been using Oxyclean for colors and washing them in the sink. Works great.

Yep, try hand washing in the sink first. It has worked well for me. I do have a white TT performance material hat from a TT outing about three years ago that has gone through at least 10 washings. True that it no longer looks brand new but the stains keep coming out.

This is great info!! I just got a white Titleist hat and need to wash it!

Thanks. I’m going to try this. I specifically searched for this as I have 5 Titleist performance hats with massive sweat rings. Debated throwing them in the washing machine but I’m considered that the form of the hat would be destroyed.

One of the best ways is to wash buy hand use a tooth brush and oxiclean. I wouldn't run the hat under water to rinse can ruin the hats entegrity use a damp wash cloth and dab . A awesome washable hat that not alot of people no about is six golf hats amazing and price is right mabey titlest will team up lol

Yeah the light colours always take a beating and tbf the cotton ones get to the point of no return and it quite hard to take imo

Maybe the guy who uses the dishwasher should throw away those PXG hats and get Titleist hats, this is after all Team Titleist lol. Please dont take it personal Sandy J, just messing with you

I will hand wash in the sink with a toothbrush or similar type soft-bristled brush with either dish soap or laundry soap, rinse well and let air dry after re-shaping the crown. With the new Performance materials Titleist uses they dry pretty quickly and look practically brand new.

Hat cage in dishwasher or washing machine hang dry just like the previous TT’ers have suggested works for me every time.

I use shout stain sticks and then rinse them in water and let them dry. They come out looking great.

Have you tried some soapy water (use laundry detergent) and a toothbrush?

I have a hat washer that you clip the hat in then wash it so the hat keeps the shape... works really well

You might try the dishwasher. I’ve put a stain remover like oxi-clean on the stains and placed the hat on the top rack of the dishwasher. Hats come out clean and not mangled.

I've seen (have not personally done this) a dishwasher cycle used before. May be worth researching. You could always fill up a sink with water (research whether warm or cold is best) with laundry detergent, hand stir the soap up then place your hat in and let it sink. Follow that up with a thorough washing/rinsing of the hat with fresh water.
Lastly, I've only done this with my.. "hats with a swoosh on them"... doing a normal laundry wash small cycle on "delicates" with only a couple of towels. Then let them air dry after, DO NOT use the dryer.

I've always spot cleaned with an old toothbrush and a little bit of Tide/random laundry soap in a cup of warm water. Rinsed the soap off with some clean water, dried as much as I could with a hand towel and then set in front of a box fan to dry the rest of the way. Have heard of putting in a pillow case in the washer then letting dry on their own as well as the dishwasher method which they sell racks for but I've always worried too about ruining the hat.

I put mine on the top rack in the dishwasher. They come out clean and the structure stays intact.

Spray those stains with Johnson's SHOUT Triple Action. I use a light stiff brush to ensure the dirt and stain gets a good cleansing. Empty your dishwasher. Put you hat(s) in the top drawer of the dishwasher and run a full cycle.
Take the hats out and put on a towel and let dry naturally. Have been doing this for years. The hats wear longer and are clean, but eventually do wear out.

Hat spray and wash after wearing!
