What You’ll Need

To get started, you’ll need a soft measuring tape, a mirror, and good lighting. If you don’t have a tape, you can use a piece of string and a ruler. Make sure you’re standing comfortably and your hair is styled as it usually is when you wear hats.

How to Measure

To measure your head, wrap the tape gently around it about one centimeter above your eyebrows and ears. Keep it smooth and even all the way around, and make sure it sits where the hat would naturally rest. Read the number where the tape meets, and write it down.

Check the Fit

Finally, check the fit by adjusting the tape until it feels snug but not tight. It should sit securely without leaving marks or feeling restrictive. This is the fit you should look for when choosing your hat size for a perfect and natural feel.

Keep It Level

When measuring, it’s important to keep the tape level from front to back. Avoid tilting it too high on your forehead or too low on the back of your head. Keeping it straight ensures the most accurate size for a balanced and comfortable fit.
