Question: Dirty drover hat solutions?

Help me clean up my drover hat.

I own a lovely Barmah Foldaway hat, chocolate "cattle suede." I also have a giant forehead and work in an overly-hot office. As a result, my hat has obvious stains on it from my giant sweaty forehead. I am disgusted and wish to fix this problem.

The Barmah site (and all the Googling I've done) just says "take your hat to the shoe store and ask them what to use on it." I'm not sure any shoe store around here would know what to do with my hat, honestly, and I'm afraid to mess it up (it was a gift from my MIL).

Anyone else have one of these hats? What should I buy to clean it up with?

Alternatively, if you're in LA and know of a place that will clean my hat for me without screwing it up, that would work too. Thanks, hive mind.

I would call Broken Horn and ask them what they recommend.
