Smart Shopping For Budget Minded People

How To Find The Perfect Fitting Hat

Whether you prefer wearing a trucker hat, a cowboy hat, a fedora, a beanie, or a hat that looks like something Pharrell would wear, choosing a hat that not only matches your personality, but that fits well is important. While you're out hat shopping, keep these things in mind to make sure that you end up with a hat that's comfortable and that fits your head really well. 

Look for One That's Adjustable

One reason that people like trucker hats that have straps in the back is for the fact that they are adjustable, which means that it's virtually a one-size-fits-most hat. In addition to looking for trucker hats and baseball hats that are adjustable, trendy wide brimmed hats are also usually adjustable on the inside; all you have to do is pull a string that lines the inside of the hat and it will tighten around your head so that it doesn't fall off. 

Get Your Head Measured

If you buy your hat from a hat store, they can measure your head to see what size of hat that you fit in. Even if you get in a hat that's your right size, you still may want to look for one that's adjustable so that it fits your head perfectly. If you plan on wearing your hat all day, then you will especially want to make sure that you get your head measured, because if it's too tight it can cause headaches and if it's too loose it can fall off. 

Wear It Around

You wouldn't buy shoes at a shoe store without trying the shoes on and wearing them around the store for a minute, would you? Similarly, you shouldn't leave the hat store without wearing it around for a little bit. Check yourself out in the mirror, make sure it's the right fit, ensure that it's comfortable, and just make sure that you like it overall. 

Hats are one of those accessories that can really make or break an outfit. Whether you want a casual trucker hat to wear to the pool or you want something that's a bit more formal like a fedora, keep these things in mind to make sure that you find a hat that you can keep for years to come.
