Purchasing a hat

When purchasing a hat you will need to choose a size. In order to do that you will need to know the head measurement of the person the hat is intended for. Measuring the head isn't difficult or complicated to do, but hopefully this quick guide will confirm how it's done.

To measure the head

You will need either a soft tape measure (dressmakers tape measure), or a piece of string and a regular tape measure to measure it against.

Head picture of a Victorian male with a measure line indicated around his forehead.
  Measure the circumference around the head keeping  the tape level and firm,
 just above the ears, across the forehead and over the  bump on the back of the head.
 As a guide -  take your head measurement and add approximately half an inch, for comfort, this will give your hat size for a TwiLd Capit Hog handmade hat. 
 

If you require a custom size, or a little help, you can send me a message here.

The colourful tip is quilted giving the hat structure and the distinctive TwiLd Capit Hog detail.

The crown is lush olive green cotton corduroy edged with burgundy fleece. The fleece continues through to form part of the lining along with chocolate brown vintage satin.

Beautifully crafted custom brimless cap

The beautifully crafted custom brimless cap, made by Julie from my own Ardalanish tweed, is a perfect fit—very comfortable and warm and just the thing for a cold winter’s day.
Julie was an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish, responding to my initial queries promptly, courteously, and in right the level of detail needed to get the best result.
Thanks to her talent and skill I now have a unique piece that I’m absolutely delighted with. I will definitely be ordering at least one more.
