Sizes and how to measure
Choose size by head circumference measurement rather than age for the best fit. Every child's head size and shape is different, so measuring is the most reliable guide.
- Medium: approximately 42 - 46cm head circumference
- Large: approximately 44 - 48cm head circumference
- Extra Large: approximately 48 - 53cm head circumference
How to measure: Use a soft tape measure and wrap it around the widest part of your child's head, just above the ears and across the forehead. Note the measurement in centimetres and match to the size guide above.
We have done our best to provide accurate measurements, however if the size is not right for your child please see our size exchange and returns policy below.
