How do I shrink a hat that is dry-clean only

[Braves]

Just got a Indianapolis Colts hat with a cool design thing on it (bumpy thing, no idea what u call it). Anyways, it's a 100% cotton hat, but the tag says DO NOT WASH, DRY CLEAN ONLY. How do I shrink this thing? And if it gets dirty, how do I clean it

stick it in the drying for a very long time?

almost all baseball caps will shrink if you wash and dry it. as for cleaning....i dunno....after i stunk up a hat, i've always just bought a new one

yeah, all my other hats I stick in very warm water and let it air dry overnight, but this one has a special design on the bill which I guess isn't suposed to be washed or else it might ruin it. Since the design is only on the bill, I guess I could put just the cap in warm water and not get the bill wet... bleh

Yeah, just wet it where you can. Except for the design, I would say stick in the washer and dryer. Lord knows I have shrunk enough stuff doing that!
