The ideal newsboy cap to add that touch of class to any casual outfit. Used interchangeably, the term Newsboy or Bakerboy both describe the same shape of cap. It is a baggy or loose style that contains excess fabric that gently pillows around the head. The generosity of the cut ensures a comfortable fit.

Whether you’re heading out fishing, shooting, golfing or exploring the mountains, this hat will keep you warm and protected. When seen up close its high quality materials and great craftsmanship will make you appreciate the time and attention to detail that has gone into this classy favourite of any lover of outdoor pursuits.

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.
