How to Size Your Hat

Proper sizing ensures comfort, balance, and the intended silhouette of your hat.

Please follow the instructions below using a fabric (soft) measuring tape for the most accurate measurement.

Measure Your Head For Size

  1. Use a fabric measuring tape
    A soft, flexible tape is essential. Do not use a rigid ruler or metal tape.
  2. Position the tape correctly
    Wrap the tape around your head where the hat will naturally sit — typically about 1 inch above the eyebrows, passing just above the ears, and around the fullest part of the back of your head.
  3. Keep the tape level
    Ensure the tape stays level all the way around. It should sit snugly against your head without pulling tight.
  4. Record your measurement
    Note the measurement in inches or centimeters. For accuracy, measure twice and use the larger measurement if there is any variation.

Measure Your Head For Shape

  1. Place the zero end of the tape at the center of your forehead, roughly one inch above your eyebrows.
  2. Stretch the tape straight over the crown of your head to the lower back bump of your skull.
  3. Keep the tape level and snug, matching where a hat sweatband naturally rests.
  4. Note the length in centimeters or inches.

Fit Notes

  • If your measurement falls between sizes, we recommend sizing up for comfort.
  • A properly sized hat should feel secure without pressure points.

Falling between two sizes? Size up for comfort, then fine-tune the fit with foam hat sizers — see below.

Adjusting Fit with Foam Hat Sizers

If your hat feels slightly large, foam hat sizers can be used to achieve a more precise fit.

How to use foam hat sizers:

  • Place the foam strips between the leather sweatband sections, not between the felt and the band.
  • Start by positioning them at the back of the hat, then along the sides, depending on where adjustment is needed.
  • Add or remove foam gradually until the fit feels balanced and comfortable.

 

Foam sizers allow for subtle adjustments without altering the structure or integrity of the hat.
