Hat Care & Sizing

Find Your Perfect Fit

A well-fitting hat is more than an accessory—it’s a statement of elegance, confidence, and craftsmanship. To ensure your new piece sits beautifully and comfortably, we recommend taking precise head measurements before placing your order.

How to Measure

  1. Use a soft measuring tape—or, if unavailable, a piece of string and a ruler.
  2. Wrap it around your head where the hat will naturally rest:
    Approximately 1/8 inch above the ears, across the mid-forehead, and around the fullest part of the back of your head.
  3. The tape should be snug but never tight—smooth, comfortable, and level.
  4. Repeat the process several times to ensure accuracy. If possible, have someone assist to keep the tape perfectly level and help with the reading.

Our Recommendation

If your measurement falls between sizes, we recommend selecting the next size up for the most refined fit. Many of our hats feature discreet adjustable bands, allowing you to fine-tune the fit without compromising the hat’s silhouette or design.
