Hat sizes:

How to measure correctly!

Measuring head circumference is the first step to finding the right hat size. Ideally, you should use a tape measure, but you can also use a simple piece of string. First, stand in front of a mirror to make sure you measure around the head correctly. It is essential to run the measuring tape around the middle of the back of the head and about one centimetre above the ears, around to the forehead. Bring the tape measure or string together at the centre of your forehead. But be sure not to pull the tape too tight. You can now read off your head circumference in your reflection in the mirror. If you dont have a mirror to hand, simply read off the number where the measuring tape meets.

Glove sizes:

To calculate your glove size, you will need a measuring tape or piece of string, as well as a long ruler. To measure the circumference of your hand, keep your hand open and flex it slightly. Then wrap the measuring tape or string around the middle of the hand. It is important to place the tape above the base of the thumb. The thumb is therefore not included when figuring out glove size. You should wrap the tape comfortably around the widest part of the hand – not too tight and not too loose. You can now use the measuring tape to read your hand circumference and cross-check this with the glove size chart. For example, a circumference of 22 cm is a size 8 glove, which is a women's size L and a men's size M.
