How to find the right size Panama Hat
How to find the right size Panama hat for you
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 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 like a particularly loose or tight fit.
If you know your hat size in a different measuring system, please use the following conversion chart to convert it to our sizing.
