Hat Fitting
Heads come in all shapes and sizes, so for an enduring fit with your new Akubra or Kaminski the following points should be considered:
The sheepskin inner band of the hat may shrink slightly with use. Do not expect a tight-fitting hat to 'loosen up'.
In time, the hat will conform to your head shape. Initially, a slightly loose-fitting hat can be adjusted using folded tissue placed behind the inner band, then removed as the hat conforms.
Size Chart 1 - Akubra & Kaminski:
These hats are sized by circumference in centimetres (cm). The head is measured in cm or inches using a dressmaker's tape, wrapped loosely across the bare forehead and just above the ears. The measurement is rounded up to the next largest full cm to choose the appropriate hat size.
