Information

To Determine Your Hat Size

• Measure around your head where you wear your hats (circumference)
• Select your Style and check if you are ordering a Guatemalan Palm Leaf or Mexican Palm Leaf
• Kid's Hats are Guatemalan Palm leaf

1. The Guatemalan hats have a foam-padded cotton twill sweatband that tends to shrink about 1% with heat and moisture. This is about 1/2 of a hat size (1/16" diameter). We recommend selecting a hat that is just a little bit loose to allow for this shrinkage. This usually means buying one size larger than you normally wear. 

2. The Mexican palm leaf hats, on the other hand, have an absorbent polyester cloth sweatband that does not shrink. And they tend to run a little large. On the Mexican hats you should buy your normal size.
