How to measure your hat size

Hat size is based on the circumference of the head while our heads come in all sizes and different shapes as well. That’s why you need to know your exact measurements when you’re planning to order your hat on the internet. Follow our step-by-step guide to measure your hat size correctly.

  • Step 1: You can use a measuring tape or even a string as your measuring tools. Wrap the tools around your head where your hat usually sits. It will be right above your ear and across your eyebrows.
  • Step 2: Use your finger to pull the string around until they meet at the center of your forehead. You can even put one finger under the tape (or string) if you want your hat to have more room and there you have your head circumference!
  • Step 3: If you are using a measuring tape, record your measurement in inches or centimeters. And if you are using a string, you will have to mark where it meets and measure the distance with a ruler.
  • Step 4: Use the hat size chart to match your head circumference.

Tips when measuring your hat size

Measuring your hat size is not simple as it may sound. There are a few things you need to bear in mind while doing that:

  • Measure several times to make sure that you’re getting an accurate measurement.
  • Don’t pull the measuring tape too tight or you will end up with a hat that is too small for you.
  • If your measurement falls between two sizes, we strongly recommend you to size up because your hat will likely shrink after a few washes.
  • Brands and materials can make the hat fit differently. Besides, there are other factors to consider, such as your hair length and style.

Are women’s and men’s hats the same size?

From our experience, both women’s and men’s hats use the same sizing system. The difference we often see that a woman’s head circumference usually falls between 21 inches to 23 inches, while it’s between 22 inches to 24 inches. That means the average hat size is Medium for women and Large for men.
