FAQs

How do I work out what size I need for my Avenel Bennett Hat?

To start with, you establish your size as per your head measurement. Measure the circumference around your head - approximately 12mm (1/2") above your ears. Keep the dressmaker tape level and firm, and keep it across your temple and above your eyebrow ridges. For in-between measurements, select the next size up.
Can I wear it in the rain?
Yes - the wool felt is treated with a water-repellent finish. If it gets wet, let it air dry naturally. Avoid heaters or direct sun for drying. To maintain the water repellent quality over time, pick up a Hat Care Kit.
How do I care for my Billabong hat?
Use a soft bristle brush to keep it clean. Renew the water repellent quality of your hat with a rain and stain protector spray. To protect its shape, store it on a hat stand, on a shelf upside down (on it's crown), or in a hat box.
