Please read the instructions below this size chart before ordering. We have indicated whether this size chart uses body or garment measurements in the notes below the size chart. Allow 1cm variance for all garment measurements (as an example a 56cm garment measurement has a variance of 55-57cm. Please factor that into deciding on the size to order.)
To select cm (cm) or inches (in") please see the top left corner of the size chart table.
cm/ in" | S/M | L/XL | XXL |
---|---|---|---|
Hat Size Inner Crown | 58 cm | 60 cm | 63 cm |
How to order the correct size Rufiji™ or Mara&Meru™ hat:
• To work out which hat will give you the most comfortable fit, simply measure your head at the fullest part where your hat will sit, which will be just above your ears. Please use this measurement to determine the size above. It is best to select a hat size which has an Inner Crown measurement slightly larger than your head size.
• Please note that only our leather hats will have a very small amount of stretch (approximately 1cm).
• As children's heads grow faster than their bodies, this size chart also applies to boys and girls.
• UK and US hat sizes given below are our approximates of the equivalent hat size in each country. Please leave the size chart in "cm" rather than "inches" to view these correctly.
S/M | L/XL | XXL | |
---|---|---|---|
UK Size Hat | Up to size 7 | Up to size 71⁄4 | Up to size 73⁄4 |
US Size Hat | Up to size 71⁄8 | Up to size 73⁄8 | Up to size 77⁄8 |

Perfect safari hat, exactly what I wanted. Will you be getting more of the Khaki color in stock soon? I want to get more for my 3 daughters for our safari. The Safari Store reply: Thank you for your review. We have good stock of the Explorer Hat at the moment, but there are lots of people who want this hat on their head.

I followed the measurements and ended up with a hat that is tight fitting. I think it runs small. If you are at the top of the measurement, I suggest ordering 1 size up.

The hat is amazing - fits my small head perfectly and a great shape. Can I pack this in my suitcase without damaging it?
