This is a color hat that was used for one year. The elastic string isn't stretched much. It was washed once a week. It was washed with powder soap that is gentle on people and the environment, not synthetic detergent. There are marks where the name tag was sewn on and removed. *If purchased with other items, we will offer a discount to account for shipping costs.
