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

- AAnnieVerified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars1 month agoI love my hat!
I bought the brown Soaker for a photography tour/safari in Botswana and South Africa! It was great, pre treated for rain as well as bugs! We had all types weather including heat, rain, wind! Perfect! Lots of compliments too!
I am a fan! I own a Sirroco (old rose color!) and a black & teal Western Sierra also.
Second photo, yes that’s a lion having a rest! Fourth photo shows lion more clear! 😂

- EWElizabeth W.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars3 months agoMy hats are perfect I’d like some softer material though. They are a little rough on my head. I wear a small and the soft would feel better

- DGDiana G.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars10 months agoI love this hat!
I have always had trouble finding a hat that fits AND looks good on me! I have a smaller head than the average One Size Fits All hat. I bought this hat for hiking as my scalp and ears tend to sunburn, but I knew I needed something more as I've been stuck wearing the unattractive sun hats from REI. REI is great, but not the most fashionable. Amazon has the worst options. I love this hat so much that I've worn it hiking, at outdoor fairs, and on walks on the beach. It gets windy by the water and this hat fits so well that it doesn't get blown off easily. On top of that, I've gotten so many compliments. So happy that I found this company.
AHAmerican Hat Makers10 months agoThank you for your amazing review! Your review made our day, and the photo you shared is the icing on the cake! We're thrilled to have been a part of your positive experience, and we hope to create many more memories together. Enjoy!
- SPShawn P.Rated 5 out of 5 stars10 months agoThis is THE summer hat
This hat is my go to hat for all things sweaty, wet, and hot. This hat is excellent for the river, pool, 5ks, gardening, camping, hiking, and any place you don’t want to look like the hot sweaty mess that you are.
I love that when I’m really hot I can dunk it in the river or pool and put I back on my head for some heat relief. I’ve had my hat for 4 years and it still going strong. I do have some sunscreen marks on it but I gently clean with diluted dish soap, marks are still there but I don’t care, this hat is awesome.
AHAmerican Hat Makers10 months agoThank you for your review! Your photos are worth a thousand words, and each one is filled with happiness! Thank you for allowing us to be a part of your memorable moments. We can't wait to serve you again soon.
- DMDebbie M.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars10 months agoGreat hat
This hat fits perfect, and is so comfortable. I can wear it all day and not even remember it's on my head.
AHAmerican Hat Makers10 months agoThank you for your review and for sharing a snapshot of your visit! Your smile says it all. We're delighted that you had a wonderful experience, and we look forward to welcoming you back.
- RDRuth D.Verified BuyerRated 1 out of 5 stars10 months agoPoor Luck
Thai is the first time I purchase from here. I kept going back & forth and decided to go for it. I had great expectations and unfortunately, I was disappointed. My hat is defective. It seems that the reinforcement material around it was too short for it causing the hat to be wavy. Initially I thought it was just due to the packaging but not the case. I will be contacting customer service to figure something out as I don’t think it’s fair to pay for the shipping back to them and re-stocking fee as their return policy specifies
AHAmerican Hat Makers10 months agoThank you for your review. I'm sorry to hear that you had a disappointing experience with us. We take your feedback seriously and will do everything we can to resolve the issue. Please contact our customer support team at info@americanhatmakers.com or 831-722-3324 so we can assist you.
- KJKathleen J.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars1 year agoLove my hat!
Love my hat for this very warm summer! It is so lightweight, and the breeze goes through it to keep me cool on hikes and walks in the neighborhood with my pup! Love having the strap when the wind gets gusty too!
- SPShawn P.Rated 5 out of 5 stars1 year agoThe best travel/water bound hat
I love this hat. Great for the pool, floats trips, hikes, yard work, vacations and anywhere you need sun protection. You can sweat in this bad boy and you and the hat look great doing your thing. I like that when it super hot and I’m out on the water I can quickly dunk the hat put it back on and cool myself off. Great when it really hot out. Anyone who wears a ball cap instead of this hat is really missing out on a supreme hat experience.
AHAmerican Hat Makers1 year agoThank you, Shawn. Your feedback means the world to us, and we hope it continues to bring you joy on all your outings.
