Fedora Hat for Big Heads

Finding fedora hats for big heads usually means settling for a hat that perches on top instead of sitting on the brow, which is why this straw style comes in three real sizes: M (55-57 cm), L (58-60 cm) and XL (61-62 cm). It is woven from paper straw, with a medium brim and a black band, in cream, beige, coffee and gray. It belongs to our fedora hats.

How to Measure for a Big Head Fedora Hat

Wrap a soft tape measure around your head about a finger's width above the eyebrows and ears, where a hat naturally sits. Read the number in centimeters and choose the size whose range contains it. If you fall between L and XL, pick XL: straw has little give. Above 62 cm, this model will not fit.

Summer Days in a Paper Straw Fedora Hat

Paper straw is light, which makes this a warm-weather hat: an outdoor jazz brunch, a Fourth of July barbecue, a summer wedding as a guest, or a stroll along a beach boardwalk. Cream and beige look crisp with linen shirts; coffee and gray suit navy and olive. The black band gives every shade a sharp outline in photos.

Big Head Fedora Hat FAQ

What size fedora do I need for a big head?

Measure first. If you are at 59 cm or more, many one-size hats will feel tight. Pick L for 58-60 cm or XL for 61-62 cm.

Is it a trilby or a fedora?

The supplier uses both names. A trilby has a short, often snapped-down brim; the photos show a medium brim, so we list it as a fedora.

Can women wear it?

Yes. It is a unisex style, and women with full hair or braids may find the L or XL size more comfortable than a standard hat.
