Materials

The foam backing has begun to degrade, and while mostly holding its shape still, it crumbles easily with any contact or movement.

Notes

Hat suffers from foam degradation, or 'Devil's Dust' and should be assessed for whether it is structurally sound enough for cleaning/foam removal. In the meantime, the hat will be isolated in a clear bag to protect other items from the loose foam particulates.
