Guatemalan Hats

The Guatemalan hat (most of the hats on our website) 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). If you are buying a GUATEMEALAN hat, we recommend buying 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.

Mexican Hats

The Mexican palm leaf hats have an imitation leather sweatband that does not shrink and they tend to run a little large. On the Mexican hats you should buy your normal size.

To Determine Your Hat Size:

Measure around your head where you wear your hats in inches (circumference).
