Find Your Hat Size

Hat sizing is personal. Some prefer their hats snug, while others may prefer a looser fit. Keep your preference in mind when purchasing your new hats and buy accordingly (size up, size down or actual fit).

 Measuring Your Actual Hat Size

  • take a soft measuring tape 
  • wrap the tape around your head, keeping the tape parallel to the ground and about an inch above your ears
  • measure over the "bump" in the back of your head (the occipital bone)
  • get as close to a 1/8 of an inch as possible for the most accurate reading

Tips On Achieving The Perfect Fit 

  • if you fall between two hat sizes we recommend sizing up (unless you prefer a snug fit) for comfort
  • measure a few times to confirm an accurate size
  • don't pull the tape too tight
  • these guidelines will find the best fit in hats for clients who take a "regular" shape in a hat
  • are you long-oval? we have the ability to order many silhouettes in the long-oval shape. email us for suggestions on the perfect fit at info@millvalleyhatbox.com
