Size Chart & Size Guide
Please read the instructions below this size chart before ordering. We have indicated whether this size chart uses body or garment measurements in the notes below the size chart. Allow 1cm variance for all garment measurements (as an example a 56cm garment measurement has a variance of 55-57cm. Please factor that into deciding on the size to order.)
To select cm (cm) or inches (in") please see the top left corner of the size chart table.
•Please use this size chart before ordering this product to ensure that you get the best fit and to save on returns costs.cm/ inches S/M L/XL XXL Hat Size Inner Crown 58 cm 60 cm 63 cm
•You can view the size chart in inches or centimeters by clicking on the "cm" or "inch" text on the green bar above the chart.
The designs of all Rufiji™ and Mara&Meru™ hats include an adjustable drawstring or the ComfyFit adjustable sizing system. For colours with ComfyFit in their name, the ComfyFit adjuster ensures you always get the best fit by simply adjusting the elasticated mechanism built into the sweatband of the hat. This makes ordering the right size that much easier.
How to order the correct size Rufiji™ or Mara&Meru™ hat:
• To work out which hat will give you the most comfortable fit, simply measure your head at the fullest part where your hat will sit, which will be just above your ears. Please use this measurement to determine the size above. It is best to select a hat size which has an Inner Crown measurement slightly larger than your head size.
• Please note that only our leather hats will have a very small amount of stretch (approximately 1cm).
• As children's heads grow faster than their bodies, this size chart also applies to boys and girls.
• UK and US hat sizes given below are our approximates of the equivalent hat size in each country. Please leave the size chart in "cm" rather than "inches" to view these correctly.

Introduction:
Bugs and sunburn are two big challenges for anyone who loves the outdoors. The BUGTech+ Adventurer Canvas Hat is made from high-quality 12oz canvas, proven in independent tests to provide UPF50+ sun protection. With the long-lasting and effective BUGTech+ anti-insect finish, repelling buzzing, biting bugs is all part of the package.
This supremely packable hat is a favourite for anyone on the move. Its compact design makes it a packing no-brainer whether you are heading on safari and exotic warm-weather adventures or are getting your daypack ready for local trails.
The ComfyFit feature is an elasticated, adjustable band built into the hat – a game changer for easy sizing. Select the fit you need to suit conditions – especially useful if you need a tight fit on open game viewers or in windy conditions.
BUGTech+ is powered by a proprietary EPA-registered InsectShield® finish, which provides effective, odourless insect protection. Insect Shield®'s insect repellent treatment has no smell, leaves no sticky residue, and does not absorb into your skin. Insect Shield® has been proven and registered to repel mosquitoes, ticks, ants, flies, chiggers, and midges (no-see-ums).
⊙ Hat Packing Advice: There are three packing options for when you travel with your hat.
• Option 1: The Adventurer Hat is made to be flat-packable and this is how we pack the hat when we travel. Place the hat flat into your luggage and make sure that the brim stays as flat as possible. The crown and sides are packed level with the brim. It is very important that no items crush the brim, nor the crown. Some creasing of the fabric may occur.
• Option 2: Fill the crown area of the hat with loose items of clothing, or a small travel towel, so that the crown area is full. This should help reduce any creasing to the crown area. You still need to pack the brim as flat as possible, and again make sure as far as possible that no other items crush the brim or crown area of the hat. A note for Option 1 and 2: While it is up to your personal preference, we do not mind if the canvas creases slightly when we travel with the Adventurer Hat as, over time, creasing reduces as you wear the hat. After all, the main purpose of the hat is to protect you from the sun, with the flat-pack function adding to the convenience of traveling with this hat. Our packing advice is advisory only and we are not responsible for damage caused to hats once packed.
• Option 3: If you are really worried about your hat creasing or being damaged when packed, then please carry the hat on your person when you travel and not in your luggage.
