The Ultimate Guide to Hat Sizing: Expert Tips for a Perfect Fit

Do You Know Your Real Hat Size? Let’s Fix That

Many people don’t realize how important it is to know their true hat size. At Stark & Legum, one of the oldest hat shops in the US, we take pride in giving personalized hat fittings so our customers can leave with a comfortable, stylish fedora (or any other style they prefer). We’ve been measuring heads for decades, and our expert salespeople can often guess your size at a glance. But because every head is unique, and every hat company’s sizing can be a bit different, sometimes you need to size up or down to get that perfect fit. This post will guide you through measuring your head, reading size charts, and what to do if you fall in between sizes.

Measuring Your Head
As mentioned, every head shape varies. Some folks have long ovals, while others have

round shapes or thicker hairstyles that add volume. Knowing your head measurement saves you time and money, ensuring you always end up with the right hat. To make it easier, we offer a free e-book, Perfect Fit: How To Measure Your Head For The Right Hat, which walks you through each step, including what to do if you’re between sizes.

Hats have been a specialty of Stark & Legum since our early days, and we’ve seen generations of customers come in for everything from formal top hats to casual caps. We believe everyone deserves to know how to measure their head properly so they can enjoy the perfect fedora or any style they choose.
