Akubra Size Guide

Measuring Your Head Size

Heads come in all sizes, and in a surprising variety of shapes.

Although Akubra hats are adaptable, and will usually conform to differences in shape with a little wearing, it is essential that the size be correct for your head.

To determine your hat size follow these 3 simple steps:
  • Measure the circumference around your head - approximately 12mm (1/2") above the ears
  • Keep the dressmaker tape level and firm, across the temple and above the eyebrow ridges.
  • Check the size chart given below.

NOTE: For in-between measurements use the next size up.

For an enduring fit with your new Akubra the following points should be considered:

  •  The Sheepskin inner band of the hat may shrink slightly with use. Do not expect a tight-fitting hat to 'loosen up'
  • In time, the hat will conform to your head shape. Initially, a slightly loose-fitting hat can be adjusted using folded tissue placed behind the inner band, then removed as the hat conforms to your head shape.

 BELT SIZING

We recommend you go at least one size up from your waist size.

To ensure the perfect fit for your new AKUBRA belt, begin by measuring around your high waist. If you're uncertain about the exact spot to measure, use your belly button as a reference point. It's recommended that you choose a size larger than this measurement to accommodate your trousers or jeans comfortably underneath the belt.

For instance, if your waist measures 36 inches, we suggest selecting a size 38-inch belt for optimal fit.
