How to Measure Your Head for the Perfect Akubra Fit Buying an Akubra is a moment worth getting right—and that starts with choosing the correct size. A properly fitted hat not only looks sharp, it feels great too. Here’s a quick and easy guide to help you measure your head at home with confidence. What You’ll Need Grab a flexible measuring tape.

Step 1: Measure Where the Hat Will Sit Wrap the measuring tape (or string) around your head, positioning it just above your ears and about a finger’s width above your eyebrows. This is where your Akubra will naturally sit. Make sure the tape is level all the way around and sits firmly—but not too tight. You want a comfortable fit, not a squeeze. Step 2: Record Your Size Take note of the measurement in centimetres. If you're using a string, simply mark where the ends meet, then lay it flat against a ruler.
