How to Measure Your Head
- Grab a soft measuring tape or a piece of string (like twine or a shoelace) and a ruler or measuring tool
- Wrap a soft tape or string around your head to measure about 1/4 to 1/2 inch above your ear and about 3/4 to an 1" inch above your brow line (see image)
- Mark the tape or your string, where it intersects, with your finger.
- Record your measurement in inches or centimeters (centimeters is often more accurate)
- If you're using a string, run it along side the ruler as many times as necessary to get a complete measurement
- MEASURE AGAIN!
- Always measure more than once until you get the same number twice
- Find your size in the chart for the perfect fit

- RCRoberto C.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars2 months agoReview for the Balboa | Men's Leather Fedora Hat by American Hat Makers
I recently purchased the Balboa Men's Leather Fedora Hat from American Hat Makers, and it has exceeded my expectations in every way. While I originally bought it for everyday use, it turned out to be much more stylish than I anticipated, which is a fantastic bonus.
This hat fills a unique "fit void" in my collection, perfectly complementing my other pieces. The reddish-brown color is rich and warm, making it versatile for a range of outfits. The fit is impeccable, sitting comfortably and securely on my head.
Overall, the Balboa Fedora is a perfect combination of practicality and sophistication. If you're looking for a well-crafted hat that can elevate your daily style, I highly recommend it.
