How To Measure Your Head Circumference
If you do not know your head circumference , you can just follow the steps below to find out the size of your head :
Step 1: Find a measuring tape or a piece of string that you will later hold up to a long ruler/measuring tape.
Step 2: Put the tape/string all the way around your head, going from 1cm above your ears and passing through the middle of your forehead. Make the tape/string not too tight.
Step 3: Check the length numbers of the tape to get your size in inches or centimeters.

Hat Care
1. Always handle your hat by the brim. Avoid handling the crown as much as possible. This is particularly true for straw hats.
2. Never rest your hat on its brim. Turn it upside down and rest it on the crown. Resting a hat on the brim will flatten-out the brim.
3. Dust your hat with a soft-bristled brush to keep it clean.
4. Heat will shrink the interior sweatband - avoid exposure to stoves, radiators, lamps and car windows.
5. Store your hat in a cool dry place to help it to retain its shape and stay clean. Out-of-season, store your hat in a hat box. If your felt hat gets wet, first return the hat to its original shape, then turn down the interior leather sweatband and rest the hat on the sweatband to dry. Avoid resting the hat on its brim while wet. Do not expose a wet hat to heat.
Leather Care
Saddle leather is known for its unique vintage appearance and durability. To maintain its distinctive characteristics, follow these care instructions.
Avoid excessive moisture: Saddle leather develops a rich patina over time, but excessive moisture can affect its appearance. Wipe off any spills or water with a dry, clean cloth
Protect from direct sunlight: Prolonged exposure to sunlight can alter the leather's color and texture. Store your Crazy Horse leather items in a cool, shaded place when not in use.
Use a soft brush: To remove dust and dirt, gently brush the leather with a soft, dry brush. This helps preserve its natural look without causing scratches.
Apply leather conditioner: Periodically apply a small amount of leather conditioner to keep the leather supple and prevent it from drying out. Test in an inconspicuous area first.
Embrace scratches and marks: Saddle leather thrives on a distressed, lived-in look. Embrace scratches and marks as they add to the character of the leather over time. However you can also wipe scratches with a clean cloth to fade.
By following these care instructions, you'll ensure your Saddle leather items age gracefully and maintain their unique charm.
