How to Measure Your Head

Finally, a hat that understands your size.

At Meriple, we don’t just make hats; we solve the struggle of finding one that actually fits. We focus exclusively on the Big Head Size series—specifically designed for those with larger head circumferences who have been ignored by "one-size-fits-all" brands. If standard Mens Bucket Hats or Ladies Bucket Hats always feel like they’re squeezing your head, leaving red marks, or giving you a headache, you’ve finally found your home.

🛠 Materials to get you started:

  • A soft measuring tape: Flexible and essential for an accurate reading.

  • A mirror: To ensure the tape is level.

  • A friend: Optional, but helpful for those hard-to-reach angles.

  • No tape? Use a phone charging cable or a strip of paper, then measure it against a ruler.

📐 Step-by-Step Guide

1. Prepare Your Hair If you have voluminous hair, wear it exactly as you would when wearing a hat. This ensures your measurement represents your true daily fit.

2. Find the Right Position Place the end of the tape at the center of your forehead, about 1–2 cm above your eyebrows and just above your ears. This is the exact spot where a Fisherman Hat with Strings or a Boonie Hat will sit.

3. Snug, but Not Tight Gently wrap the tape around the most prominent part of the back of your head. It should be snug against the skin but not "fighting back." Think of it as a comfortable hug for your head.

4. Measure Twice, Order Once Take the measurement 2–3 times to be sure. If your measurement falls between sizes, always opt for the larger size for a more comfortable, breathable fit.

Most "standard" XL hats stop at 61-62cm. At Meriple, we start where others end. If you've been wearing a hat on the very last buckle, it’s like only fastening 3 out of 10 buttons on a shirt—it’s time for a real solution.
