Washing Instructions for the Nike Dri-Fit Hat

While most people know Nike as a manufacturer of sneakers, it also makes a range of athletic apparel, including the Nike Dri-FIT hat. The Dri-FIT hat is made out of lightweight material, a combination of microfiber and polyester. Instead of just absorbing sweat, it sucks sweat away from the wearer's skin. This makes for a more comfortable experience, particularly important for athletes who spend a great deal of time outside in direct sunlight. Your Nike Dri-FIT hat will need washing just like any other hat, due to an accumulation of sweat, dirt and grease from extended wear.

      Fill a basin with warm, not hot water. Combine 2 tbsp. of a microfiber detergent. This type of detergent is especially designed for clothes made of microfiber blends. Swish the detergent and water together with your hand.

    • 2

      Submerge the hat in the water. Scrub the sides of the hat against each other, removing built-up dirt and grease. Continue this process until all dirt is gone. Rinse the hat with cold water until the water runs clean.

    • 3

      Wring out the skull part of the hat. Lay the hat on a towel away from direct sunlight or heat. Put it in an area where a breeze will hit it, such as by an open window or fan. Allow the hat to air dry.
