Choosing a Hat for Your Face Shape

Let’s talk about hats, yeah? The most formidable accessory you can have at your disposal. Hats are great for when you want to elevate your style—or when you want to hide a bad hair day. 

If you’re shopping around for the first time, choosing the right hat can feel impossible. Today we’ll focus on how to choosehats for face shape, hats for men with heads big and small, and hats for different hair and body types. If it has to do with hats, we’re on top of it.

Styles by Head Size

Hats for Men With Smaller Heads

For men with smaller heads, fit is everything. To avoid being overwhelmed by a hat's size, opt formen’s hats for smaller heads that are proportionate to your head. 

Try these styles: 

• Beanies: While beanies are known for being the perfect fit for cold-weather climates, beanies can be a stylish addition to casual outfits. Look for beanies that sit snugly on your head to avoid a slouchy appearance (unless that’s the look you’re going for, of course).
• Flat Caps:Flat caps or newsboy caps are great choices for smaller heads, though harder to come by nowadays. Their close-fitting design can complement your facial features without overwhelming them, which is important when consideringhats for men with smaller heads.
• Short-brimmed hats: A sleek short-brimmed hat can keep your look simple yet stylish, frame your face nicely, and give you a larger presence without an overwhelmingly large brim.

Hats for Men With Larger Heads

If your head is on the larger side, the fit is still top of mind, but comfort is likely what you’re looking for. If a hat is too tight, you’ll probably deal with headaches (and then you’ll associate hats with headaches).

Here are the best hats for men with big heads:

• Ball Caps: The great thing about ball caps is that they’re inherently adjustable. Keep your eyes out for adjustable straps and snapback closures so you can customize the fit to your head size and shape.
• Wide-Brimmed Hats: Broad brims (like those found with rancher or most pencil-brimmed hat styles) will balance out the proportions of your head and add an air of sophistication to your look. Plus, wide-brimmed headwear is known to be comfortable and effortlessly stylish, arguably a great beginner hat.
