The best thing you can do is measure your head. You can use a cloth tape measure or, if you don’t have that, you’ll need a length of soft rope and a yardstick to measure the rope after you wrap it around your head. It will be more accurate if you have someone else to help so that your measuring tape stays in the right place.
Put your first two fingers together like a salute. Place them right on your eyebrow and again above your ears. This is where your hat should sit – about 1-2 fingers above your eyebrow and ears. Wrap your tape measure around your head until it’s comfortably snug. You want your hat to be parallel to the ground, not tilted back on your head, so keep the measure level around your head.
Tighten your measuring device to fit the way you’d like your hat to feel on your head. You want to be accurate to within 1/8 of an inch. You can see the hat sizes on each product page or give us a call. We’ll help you decide what size to order. We answer our phones 7 days a week. Just keep in mind we’re in eastern time zone so try to call before 7pm est. 678-842-4287
Cowboy hats should feel snug, but not tight and not move around on your head. Put your first two fingers together like a salute and place them on your browbone. Do the same at the top of your ear. Your hat should sit about 1-2 fingers above your eyebrow and 1-2 fingers above your ear. We use a strong sweatband so our hats fit really well, but If it drops down over your ears or wobbles around that means it’s too big. You can make it sit higher by following these instructions to tighten your hat. If you aren’t sure, snap a selfie and text it to 407-616-4981. We can help.

(shhh…don’t tell anyone that sizing tape is weather stripping. You can buy it at Home Depot or Lowes. The 3/4 inch width works best.)
Start by cutting a piece of weather stripping about 4 inches long. Put it under the sweat band, starting in the back, keeping the sticky side facing the hat and the paper facing the sweatband. Try it on. Keep adding 2-3 inch pieces of tape until the hat feels tight enough. Once you like the fit, press down, sticking the sizing tape to the hat. We recommend leaving the paper strip attached. It will keep the sizing tape from getting compressed and the fit will last longer.
It’s comfortable and invisible.
