Hat Size Chart: How to Measure Your Head at Home

A tape measure, sixty seconds and the exact Kerry Kouture size chart — Small through X-Large, plus how the spacers fine-tune your fit.

How to measure your head

Run a soft tape around your head about an eighth of an inch above your ears and across the middle of your forehead — exactly where the hat will sit. Keep the tape level and snug, not tight. Measure twice and take the larger number.

Your fitted baseball cap size is not your fedora size. Caps stretch and are built on a different last. Measure properly.

The house size chart

Wool sizes: Small 6 3/4 to 7, Medium 7 1/4 to 7 3/8, Large 7 1/2 to 7 5/8, X-Large 7 3/4 to 7 7/8. Straw sizes: Small 6 7/8 to 7, Medium 7 1/8 to 7 1/4, Large 7 3/8 to 7 1/2, X-Large 7 5/8. Wool X-Large is fitted in person rather than sold online.

This scale applies across the Wool and Straw collections. Spacers are included inside each hat so the fit can be tuned at home after it arrives.

Between two sizes?

Take the larger size and use the spacers to close the gap. A hat that sits a fraction loose can be corrected; a hat that is genuinely too small cannot.

Beaver is carried in stock

The Beaver Collection is carried in stock. Custom made-to-order pieces are also available with a 3–4 week delivery time.

Find your size

Four sizes. Measured, not guessed.

Run a soft tape around your head about a finger's width above your ears and across the middle of your forehead — that's where the hat sits. Keep it level and snug, then match your number below.

  • Medium7 1/4 to 7 3/8hat size
  • Large7 1/2 to 7 5/8hat size
  • X-Large7 3/4 to 7 7/8fitted in person

Spacers are included inside every hat, so you can fine-tune the fit at home. If you are near a retailer that carries Kerry Kouture, come in — being sized in person beats guessing every time.

One correction worth knowing: your fitted baseball cap size is not your fedora size. Caps stretch and sit differently — measure properly, or come in and let us do it.
