Size Guide

How to measure your head

We prefer that you measure your head in centimeters because it tends to be more accurate than inches. Measure several times to ensure accuracy.

step 1

To measure your head size where your hat will sit, gather a cloth measuring tape or a simple string.

step 2

Start at the back of your head by gently wrapping the measuring tape or string towards your forehead a half inch (temple area) above your ears. Meet both ends of the measuring tape or string at the center of your forehead above the eyebrows.

step 3

Mark where those two points meet and measure the distance between the start and end points. If using a string, measure the start and end points against a ruler to find your hat size. Use this measurement to determine your hat size. Hat sizes vary by style, so be sure to check the unique fit for each.

If you ask any product-based company what the most challenging part of starting a business, manufacturing will list in the top 5.

Manufacturing is like dating. It takes a few trial dates and relationships before you really know what you want in a partner. Additionally, a strong manufacturing partner who is trustworthy, reliable, and devoted to making the best product time and time again, is the key to success. 

It took KIN a few trial manufacturers and a year of research to finally locate our best, most fluid partner.  A better who was dedicated to the craft of millinery and has been perfecting it since 1860.

KIN women's wool hats and women's straw hats are designed in California and are responsibly manufactured by expert craftsmen on the East Coast using century-old techniques that are rooted in sourcing quality materials–as close to their origin. We believe that modern luxury should not be defined by a price tag, but rather tried and true craftsmanship. Thoughtful design is about each step of the process, where no detail is too small.
