Size Guide
Urban Caps • The Fit Guide
Great style starts with the perfect fit.
From everyday caps to classic hats, find the fit that feels right for you.
Find your size01 / Measure
How to measure your head
All you need is a flexible measuring tape, or a piece of string and a ruler.
Wrap the tape around your head
Measure the circumference where your cap or hat will naturally sit, above your ears.
Find the correct position
Position the tape about 1–2 cm above your eyebrows. Keep it level, without pulling too tightly.
Record your measurement
Note the circumference in centimetres or inches. If using string, lay it flat against a ruler.
Fit tip: If you fall between sizes, the larger option is generally more comfortable. Check the individual product's sizing first.
02 / Calculate

Enter your head circumference for a quick, general size recommendation.

Important: This is a general conversion guide, not a guarantee of fit. Sizes vary between brands, styles and products. Always use the specific measurements listed on your chosen product page when available.
04 / Good to know
Fit questions, answered.
What if my measurement falls between two sizes?
Generally, choose the larger size for a comfortable fit. If the product lists a specific measurement range, follow that range instead.
What does one size or adjustable mean?
Adjustable headwear can fit a range of head measurements, depending on its closure and design. One size does not necessarily fit everyone; check the stated product range.
Can I measure without a tape measure?
Yes. Wrap a non-stretch piece of string around your head in the same position, mark the overlap, then measure the length with a ruler.
Will every cap or hat fit the same way?
No. Crown shape, material, lining, and closure can affect fit. Flat caps, fedoras, bucket hats and baseball caps may have different size ranges. Use the individual product guide first.

Cap Care Guide
Urban Caps / The care edit
Wear it well.
Keep it fresh.
A little care goes a long way. Keep your favourite cap or hat looking its best, wear after wear.
3 everyday care essentials
Air dry & reshape
Press out moisture gently. Support structured crowns on a rounded form; dry soft knits flat, away from heat and sun.
Store without crushing
Keep clean, dry headwear in a cool, ventilated space. Use a shelf, hat form or protective box; avoid heavy items on top.
Care label comes first. Avoid washing machines, dishwashers, tumble dryers, bleach and direct heat unless the manufacturer expressly permits a particular method. Test cleaners on a hidden area.
Care by material & style
Cotton, canvas & polyester capsBaseball caps, trucker caps & bucket hats
- Start with a cool damp cloth or soft brush and mild colour-safe detergent. Give the sweatband extra attention.
- Hand wash only if the care label allows and the brim and crown are water-safe. Do not immerse cardboard brims or structured caps.
- Gently blot with a towel and dry on a rounded support. Keep mesh away from rough brushes.
Wool, tweed & feltFlat caps, cheesecutters, newsboy caps & fedoras
- Brush dust away with a soft hat brush. Spot clean lightly using a cloth and an appropriate wool-safe cleaner.
- Avoid soaking structured wool or felt and do not scrub or wring. Wash unstructured wool only if the care label permits.
- Support the original shape as it dries in the shade. For deep cleaning or damage, seek a specialist hat cleaner.
Straw, Panama & woven hatsSun hats, wide-brim hats & delicate weaves
- Remove dust with a dry soft cloth or brush. If permitted, gently dab marks with a barely damp cloth.
- Never soak woven straw, paper or raffia; avoid heavy rain, steam and harsh chemicals.
- Air dry in the shade, and store with the brim supported to avoid bending.
Leather & suedeLeather flat caps, cowboy hats & suede styles
- For smooth leather, wipe with a dry or barely damp cloth if permitted. Use a suitable leather cleaner or conditioner only after spot testing.
- For suede, use a dedicated dry suede brush or eraser. Avoid applying water or ordinary leather conditioner.
- Keep away from heaters, direct sun and excess moisture. Never wash or soak leather or suede.
Beanies & knitted headwearWool, acrylic & other soft-knit styles
- Follow the fibre-specific care label. If hand washing is allowed, use cool water and suitable mild detergent or wool wash.
- Do not twist or wring. Gently press out water with a clean towel.
- Reshape and lay flat to dry to minimise stretching. Fold or store flat once completely dry.
