Water and Stain Repellent
Gard-More is a non-silicone based water and stain repellent spray that will not seal the pores of leather, felt, suede, or nubuck. Formulated to coat the fibres of the material, Gard-More allows the treated item to breathe. It minimises damage by retarding the absorption of liquids. It will not change the colour, tone, or texture of leather, material, suede, nubuck or felt hats and prevents staining and discoloration. Gard-More helps prevent damage caused by perspiration, water spotting, grease stains, and general handling.
Color — Black
Between sizes? Take the larger — sweatbands can be padded.

Felt breathes more than you would expect, but for high heat we point you to Panama, raffia and straw weaves.
Most styles run to 7 5/8. For anything beyond, request a custom fit — larger blocks are a specialty of our makers.
