If you are not sure what your hat size is, please follow these simple instructions to find your size.
Measure your head at the level you would want the hat to sit at when you are wearing it. This can vary a little according to your personal preference, but normally it would be across the middle of the forehead, pass a thumb’s width above your ears and around the widest part of the back of your head.
Use a tape measure or a piece of string to find your size in centimetres.
Once you have the measurement in centimetres, this should be the hat size for you. You may wish to move up or down one size if you prefer a particularly loose or tight fit.

Reviews from our customers
A lovely hat, great customer service, well worth the cost, highly recommended
I have worn this hat leisurely for a couple weeks now. Out on the frisbee golf course is the most stress I've put it through. I can honestly say this hat is not worth 115 dollars. When I buy a hat for that much I don't expect to have to put my own labor into it for repairs. The black band is super glued on, and not very neatly. It started falling off today. If I don't repair it myself it will come off in the next week completely, no doubt. What's surprising to me is the fact that it's not stitched on like my 20 dollar straw hat fedora I purchased at a Ren Fair one year ago. I am utterly disappointed in this purchase and will not recommend it to anyone.
Wasn't shipped in strong enough box , cheap quality material, hat was bent up not ready to wear, my last time, no good,
Very happy with my new Dumont. Fit perfect, great quality make. Loving it and look marvelous baby
Fast despatch, good quality, totally satisfied!
