How to determine the size
With a tailoring tape-line or a tape measure, as accurately as possible, measure your head circumference at its widest part.
Usually the head circumference is measured at a distance of approximately 3/4 inch (2 cm) above the eyebrows, a little above the ears and at the same point at the back (this is the maximum length of the circumference of the head).
Find on the table (see picture “How does one determine headdress size?”) the size of the headdress, which corresponds to the maximum circumference of your head.
When choosing a headgear (hats, caps, berets, etc.) remember that it should not put pressure on the temples and forehead, and at the same time it should not be too loose, otherwise a wind would blow in the ears or completely blow the headgear off.
