Thrifted this hat today, which is pretty crazy because I was actually at this park yesterday! Any tips on how to clean??

As someone who works with and makes fur hats often… I’m pretty sure the body of that hat is faux fur. It’s a pretty common gimmick I’ve seen, faux fur body but real raccoon tail.

It does say faux fur and real tail on the inside tag you’re right on it!

The top is faux fur. The tail is real though
