Measure Your Head
When it comes to finding the right hat, size matters. Properly measuring your head size will determine your hat size and help you get the perfect fit. The best hat will not only look good, but it will feel good. Before you buy your hat, make sure to measure your head and look at our size chart.
How to Measure Your Head
To measure your head size, all you need is either a measuring tape.
- Wrap the tape measure around the largest part of your head until the two ends meet at the center of your forehead just above your eyebrows. Firmly hold the tape mid-forehead with your finger, not too tightly or too loose.
- The goal is to determine precisely where your hat will sit for the most comfortable fit. Take note of the measurement from your measuring tape and use it to find your corresponding size on our hat sizing chart.
Sizing Tips
- If your measurement is in between sizes on the hat size chart, choose the next larger size.
- Even though our hat sizes are standard across the USA, there are various factors that can affect the fit of the hat, from the hat’s material to how much hair you have. This is all the more reason to go a size up – a slightly roomier hat is much more comfortable and easier to pad than a hat that’s too tight and gives you a headache.
- Don’t worry if you have a big head. We have large hats to help provide the perfect size for you from XXL to XXXL (many of our men’s hats come in XL already).
The Difference Between Men’s and Women’s Hats
- Men’s hats are generally sized numerically or alphabetically, although there are some men’s hats that come in one size fits most. These “one size” hats fit heads with a circumference of 21½” to 23” (medium to large).
- Women’s hat sizing is often one size fits most: the style is made in a standard size with the ability to suit head sizes ranging from 21½” to 22¼” in circumference. While actual hat sizes may vary, many of these “one size” women’s hats come with an inner drawstring or band that can be adjusted to keep the hat in place.
Hat Alteration Options
- Most “one size” hats for men and women come with an inner drawstring that allows you to adjust the fit. These inner drawstrings are usually found stitched into the sweatband itself with an extended piece of string or ribbon that you can tug. Pull gently to adjust the fit, which can tighten the hat up to two sizes.
- Many hats without inner drawstrings feature bands made of leather, elastic, or foam lining. If this is the case, you can still adjust the fit of the hat with sizing tape. This is the preferred method of adjusting hats because it maintains the shape of the sweatband and inner lining without any damage.

Love this hat. I found the brim to be the size I was looking for. I haven't tried crushing it yet... and hopefully never have to. It is a nice option to wear when the weather is a bit colder, and I don't want to wear a knit watch cap, ruining my hair. I found with a different higher end straw panama hat I bought last summer I'm a 60 CM hat size. This is a tad bigger than that 60 CM hat. I used the little bit of foam fitment material, and it's perfect. I really enjoy wearing this hat.

Excellent all- use fedora. Comfortable and has a nice shape. Brim doesn’t seem to snap but the overall look is so nice I’m not worried about it. Photos don’t do it justice- this hat is a truly stunning chocolate brown with subtle red highlights. It is fantastic, well worth the money.

Overall, pretty dapper styled gentle men hat, but the material is not that stiff, which make it hard to snap brim, if that is preferred.

Over the years I have returned multiple Scala hats due to poor quality or weird fit, but this hat came out of the box in good condition, good quality, and looks great. The XL is a little too big for my head, but if I go smaller, it will be too small and be uncomfortable to wear so I padded the sweatband a little and its doable. I would rather have it be too big rather than too small (that's what she said eh hem). I went ahead and purchased another color based on the looks, condition, and feel of this hat.Second hat: This hat came to me in a clear plastic bag. No box and nothing else to protect the hat. It was also shipped during the peak of the Christmas season and surprisingly the hat arrived in perfect condition. It was not crushed, folded, creased, wrinkled, or mis-shapened in any way. The hat was literally in perfect condition with a perfect shape. I don't know how that is even possible traveling so many miles, in so many different airplanes and trucks with nothing more than a plastic bag to protect it. The grey color is also perfect. Not too light and not too dark. I'm glad I purchased a second hat.

I was looking to upgrade my headgear with a classic fedora, and searched all over. Some were too fancy, some were too "cowboy" (not that there's anything wrong with a cowboy hat, but it's not my style). This one looked perfect. The price seemed right, too. I didn't want a cheap hat, but I didn't want to spend hundreds of dollars, either. I'm very pleased with it. It looks and fits great, it's comfortable and well made. I think this is a hat I'll wear for years to come, and always look good in it. And it came in a box, so I didn't get something that had been squished under other packages. Five stars!

Really love this hat--especially at this price point. It was this or the Hats in the Belfry version--also a nice hat, and which I ordered first--but the finish on this hat is just a tad better. The stitches that tack the grosgrain ribbon in place on the Belfry model were frayed and ruined the overall look. This Scala Classico model has clean, neat stitches, and that really makes a difference.I first ran into this model of the Scala fedora this fall in a period show that I did (MEMPHIS), and one of my cast mates had this exact hat--same size and color. I knew I wanted a fedora just like it, or another brand as good. Turns out--at least in this instance--that for this type of fedora, the Scala is just the fit.Speaking of fit, the Scala XL, which fits my huge melon of a head, is just right. The Hats in the Belfry model is just a little large--but that wasn't my problem with the hat. A hat spacer, and you're good to go. And before anyone thinks this is a screed against the Hats in the Belfry brand, I'm still looking to buy a trilby model, and the Belfry version looks very nice for that.For a more reserved but definite fedora, I really like this Scala hat. The brim is not too wide nor the crown too tall. It has a great 50s and 60s vibe. If I wanted a more flamboyant model, I'd go with the Belfry Gangster model, but I was looking for more 60s, less 30s. No defense for taste.
