How to determine the size of the cap?

Purchasing hats, buyers are faced with the fact that they are not oriented at all in their sizes. The choice of this or that hat is made after several examples. But there are cases when when buying it is necessary to know the size of the cap.

Choosing a headgear for a child

In the wardrobe of the child must be present hats. Seasonal collection of headgear will be needed immediately after the birth of the baby. For their acquisition can not do without an idea of the exact size of the cap. Buying headgear for adults, you can just pick them up by fitting. Children's clothing, especially for infants, is purchased in accordance with their size. In order not to be mistaken in the choice, one should also take into account the fact that the baby is growing rapidly. Head size changes too. The new purchase has to be done every six months. Demi-season and fur hats take on a slightly larger size.

How can I determine the size of the cap?

Going to buy clothes for a child, you need to know such data: age, height and girth of the head. Correspondence of these parameters in children individually. The main characteristic when choosing a cap is the girth of the head. It is not difficult to determine it. You can measure the child's head with a centimeter tape. If there is no centimeter, you can use a dense, non-stretch thread and ruler for this purpose. Measurements are made by making a head girth. Centimeter tape is applied in the front in the middle of the frontal part and further - behind, along the most convex occipital part. If the measurements are removed by a string, then its length after the head is accented is measured with a ruler. The resulting number is the desired size of the cap.

Size Match Table

To determine the purchase of the headgear, you can use the existing information of the clothing parameters. The table of sizes of children's hats includes data that can be compared with the child's measurements. This source has information on the correspondence of age, height and girth of the head. The last parameter is given in centimeters.

How to use the information on the correspondence of the sizes?

After measuring the head circumference of the baby, you can easily determine the size of the cap from the table. However, do not blindly follow the recommendations given in the table. Despite the fact that the information gathered in the source is based on the practice of real purchases, in each individual case, you need to adjust the data. Every child is different. The resulting measurements should be rounded. If, for example, the baby is one and a half years old, and the head circumference is forty-eight and a half centimeters, then the forty-ninth size is chosen in the table. The parameters are rounded off to a larger side.

Determining the Size of Caps for Adults

Clothes - a product of a huge and complex range. Headgear can be grouped according to certain characteristics. Men's, women's and children's hats for different age groups are made from all kinds of materials. Seasonal factor also affects the range of this type of clothing. Also, the headgear is divided according to purpose and shape. However, the size remains invariably an important parameter. It is determined in the same way as for children's clothing. In order to determine the more accurate and correct sizes of women's and men's caps, additional head measures are taken. In addition to the girth, the line of the longitudinal arc is measured. This is the distance from the superciliary depressions to the protruding occipital part. The second additional measure is the measurement of the transverse line of the head. A centimeter is imposed from one temple to another through the crown point. Two additional measures will help you choose the headgear for adults more accurately.

Having hand-picked head measurements, they are compared with existing information materials, which determine the size of the cap. Table of Russian manufacturers gives the parameters in centimeters. International parameters are denoted by Latin numerals. Many countries measure the head circumference in inches and have a certain numbering of caps sizes. Unlike tables of children's sizes matching, informational materials for female and male headdresses do not have data on growth and age. They contain information only about the basic size of the cap, which corresponds to the girth of the head. After removing the measurements, they are compared with the data given in the table. Rounding in comparison is made in a smaller direction.
