To guess your hat size, wrap a measuring tape around your head where the hat will sit, about a centimeter above the ears and across the forehead. Record this measurement in centimeters or inches. Use a hat size chart to convert this number to your appropriate hat size. It's always best to measure a couple of times to ensure accuracy.
