How to choose the right hat size?
1. Prepare a measuring tape to measure the circumference of your head.
2. Stand in front of a mirror and gently wrap the tape around your head – 1 cm above your eyebrows at the widest part of your head. Do not pull it too tightly.
3. Mark the point where the ends meet. The measurement you get is your size. Repeat the process a few times to ensure accuracy.
4. Some models may vary in size. Most of our hats feature an adjustable sweatband, allowing you to reduce the size by up to 2 cm.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if the size fits?
The hat should fit snugly without causing pressure. A hat that’s too tight may distort the brim, while one that’s too loose will move around on your head. The ideal fit ensures the hat stays in place, even when you bend forward.
Will the hat stretch?
The hat will gradually conform to the shape of your head as you wear it. Natural materials may slightly stretch over time.
What size should I choose if my head measurement is between sizes?
In such cases, we recommend choosing the larger size. Each hat comes with cork strips that allow you to adjust the fit to your head shape.
Do all PENICHE models have the same sizing?
Many factors influence a hat’s sizing — shape, material, and handcrafted construction. Each model may fit differently, even in the same size. Check the size guide available on each product page to find the perfect fit for your chosen style.
How do I use the size-reducing strips?
The size-reducing inserts should be placed under the sweatband in the areas where you feel looseness or need a tighter fit.
