Size & Fit Guide

How to Measure Your Head: Using a soft measuring tape, wrap it around your head approximately 1 inch above your eyebrows and ears, keeping it parallel to the ground. Note the measurement where the tape overlaps. Compare this measurement with the size chart above to ensure the perfect fit. Most adult heads range from 55-60 cm in circumference.
Please note: These measurements are for reference only. Actual fit may vary slightly depending on individual head shape, hat construction, and how snugly you prefer to wear it. If your head circumference is close to 58 cm, this size should accommodate you comfortably.
Care & Maintenance
To preserve the beauty and integrity of your steampunk fedora:
- Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent felt fading
- Handle gently to maintain the shape and structure of the crown
- Dust lightly with a soft brush to remove particles
- Avoid moisture and rain; felt is water-sensitive and can lose its shape when wet
- Keep metal components dry to prevent oxidation and maintain their luster
- Store on a hat stand or in a hat box to preserve its form between wears
