Ordering my first hat...

Post by suburbancomics »

I have been saving my money, and tonight after work I am going to finally purchase a Magnoli/HJ, with the streets of Cairo bash. I was wondering if anyone had any information on accurately measuring my head for the hat. I am really nervous about not getting it just right; I would hate it if my hat ended up too big or too small. So what's the best way to do this. Thanks.

Also, don't "pad" your measurement for the Magnoli/HJ. Nerves might prompt you to add an 1/8" to be sure it's not too tight (most will tell you , better too big than too small). You won't need to do that with this baby.

Oh, and it's a good idea to measure your head several times and average it. It helps reduce human error.

I want to order my own hat sometime in the very near future, I'm also afraid that I'm going to mess up and have the wrong size sent to me.

Anyway, when your hat comes in you'll have to let us see it. Good Luck!
