Oppenheimer Porkpie Hat
HOW TO DETERMINE YOUR HAT SIZE
Use a tape measure (or a length of string that you will have to hold up to a tape measure) to determine the length. Place the string or tape around your head about 1/8″ above your ear, across the mid-forehead, completely circling your head. Hold the tape firmly, but not too tightly. Basically, you need to measure your head exactly where the hat will sit. If your measurement falls between sizes, choose the next largest size.

A porkpie hat was a trademark of physicist Robert Oppenheimer, scientific director of the World War II project that developed the atomic bomb.
Using a tape measure, measure your head about one-half inch above your eyebrows where your hat will rest. Be certain that the tape measure is straight, not twisted. Alternatively, you can use a piece of string to measure your head, and then measure the length of the string with a ruler. If you are not certain about size or are between sizes, buy the larger size.Use the chart below to determine your hat size based on the measurement you take.
