We prefer that you measure your head in centimeters because it tends to be more accurate than inches. Measure several times to ensure accuracy.
step 1
To measure your head size where your hat will sit, gather a cloth measuring tape or a simple string.
step 2
Start at the back of your head by gently wrapping the measuring tape or string towards your forehead a half inch (temple area) above your ears. Meet both ends of the measuring tape or string at the center of your forehead above the eyebrows.
step 3
Mark where those two points meet and measure the distance between the start and end points. If using a string, measure the start and end points against a ruler to find your hat size. Use this measurement to determine your hat size. Hat sizes vary by style, so be sure to check the unique fit for each.
