Rilakkuma Hat – Official Bear-Ear Design
Our official Rilakkuma hat brings your favorite bear’s signature look to everyday wear. Plush bear ears sit atop a soft polyester-cotton cap, complete with embroidered facial details and the iconic relaxed expression fans love.
The outer shell blends polyester and cotton for durability and breathability, while the fleece lining delivers warmth without the bulk of a heavy winter hat. We chose this fabric mix after testing dozens of samples to ensure the material holds embroidery stitches cleanly and resists pilling after repeated washes.
Sizing & Fit
The hat accommodates head circumferences from 56 to 60 centimeters, covering most teen and adult sizes. An adjustable drawstring at the back lets you tighten or loosen the fit without leaving visible hardware on the outside.
The crown sits slightly slouched rather than rigid, mimicking Rilakkuma’s laid-back personality. If you prefer a snug fit that covers your ears fully, pull the drawstring tighter; for a looser, casual look, leave it relaxed. The fleece lining rests gently against your forehead without creating pressure points, even during extended wear.
Care Instructions
Machine wash the hat in cold water on a gentle cycle, using mild detergent. Place it inside a mesh laundry bag to protect the ears during agitation. Do not use bleach or fabric softener, as both can break down the polyester fibers and dull the embroidery thread.
After washing, reshape the ears by hand and air dry the hat on a flat surface or over a rounded form like a mixing bowl. Never tumble dry or iron – heat will melt the wire supports and stiffen the fleece lining. Spot-clean small stains with a damp cloth and a drop of gentle soap to extend time between full washes.

Common Questions About the Rilakkuma Hat
Yes. The hat includes an adjustable drawstring at the back that you can pull to tighten the fit around your head. This feature accommodates head sizes from 56 to 60 centimeters, so you can customize the snugness without any visible hardware on the outside.
The ears contain flexible wire supports wrapped in cotton batting, so they hold their shape throughout the day. You can pose them slightly forward or perfectly upright, and they won’t collapse during normal wear. The wire is fully encased, so it won’t poke through the fabric.
The fleece lining provides moderate warmth suitable for cool autumn days and mild winter conditions. If you live in an area with harsh winters or freezing temperatures, you may want to layer it with a hood or pair it with earmuffs for extra insulation.
Machine wash it in cold water on a gentle cycle, placing the hat inside a mesh laundry bag to protect the ears. Use mild detergent and avoid bleach or fabric softener. After washing, reshape the ears by hand and air dry the hat on a flat surface. Never tumble dry or iron, as heat will damage the wire supports.
The hat is designed for teens and adults with head circumferences between 56 and 60 centimeters. It may fit older children with larger heads, but younger kids will likely find it too big even with the drawstring fully tightened. We recommend measuring head circumference before purchasing for a child.
The eyes, nose, and smile are stitched directly into the cap using colorfast embroidery thread, not appliquéd patches. This construction method prevents peeling, and the thread resists fading even after multiple washes. Many customers report the embroidery looking new after months of regular wear.
The polyester-cotton blend resists light moisture, but the hat is not waterproof. A brief drizzle won’t soak through immediately, but prolonged exposure to rain will saturate the fabric and fleece lining. If you expect wet conditions, consider packing the hat in a bag or wearing a water-resistant hood over it.
