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

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 to 7 3/4.

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 measured, not charted

The Beaver Collection is custom fitted in person at a Kerry Kouture location. There is no chart to read — the hat is sized to your head.

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.

  • Small6 7/8 to 7hat size
  • Medium7 1/8 to 7 1/4hat size
  • Large7 3/8 to 7 1/2hat size
  • X-Large7 5/8 to 7 3/4hat size

Spacers are included inside every hat, so you can fine-tune the fit at home. If you are anywhere near a Kerry Kouture location, come in — a professional fitting 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.
