SIZING
+ Am I the same size in all JL styles?
No.There are a couple different factors that affect sizing. First, different styles will fit differently because of the shape of the hat. Our molds are hand-made, so while we try to keep sizing consistent across shapes, due to the handmade nature, sizes vary slightly from style to style. Different materialization also causes the hat to feel differently on your head. For instance, our Gabrielle bolero and our Klint boater will fit differently in the same size because the wool and the straw expand differently on your head. Please refer to the sizing guide on each product’s page for specific sizing in that style.
+ How do I measure my head?
Please see our sizing illustration here.
+ How do I know if my hat fits how it should?
Your hat should sit comfortably on your head without feeling pressure. To know if your hat fits properly, place your index finger at the center of your forehead perpendicularly. Your finger should be able to fit between your forehead and the sweatband inside the hat. If you are able to fit more than one finger, your hat is too large. If you are not able to fit a finger between your forehead and the sweatband inside the hat, you need a larger size.
+ I received my hat, but it doesn’t fit perfectly, what are my options?
If you believe that you need a new size after testing the method above, please email orders@janessaleone.com to get an authorization for a return. We will generate a code for you to place a new order in the correct size. If you are on the cusp of the two different sizes, we recommend you size up and purchase a foam hat spacer to fill in extra room. You can find our recommendation here.
+ my hat stretch?
Yes, your hats are made to shape to your head with wear. On average, our hats give about ⅛ inch. If your hat is too small to fit one finger between your forehead and the inner sweatband, we recommend going a size up.
