Hat size guide
By using a soft measuring tape, measure the circumference of your head just above your ears and refer to the size guide below. If you are in between sizes go up to the larger size. You can always place a sweatband or size reducer (purchase from our accessories here) in the front and or back of the hat. If you have any difficulty determining your size, please send us the measurements and we can recommend a size to fit.
