How do I pick the right size?

Measure your head circumference in centimeters and match it to the bands: S is 56–57 cm, M is 57.5–59 cm, L is 60–61 cm and XL is 61.5–62 cm. If you are between bands, size up for a looser fit.

Is it warm enough for winter?

The wool and polyester blend with a quilted lining is built for cool weather. It is warmer than a cotton flat cap, but not a heavy winter hat.

Can the brim be worn flat?

Yes. The double snap brim can be snapped down over the forehead or left flat, so you can change the look.

What is the difference from a standard flat cap?

The Shelby has an 8-panel crown that gives more volume and a rounder shape than a low-profile flat cap. It is the fuller newsboy silhouette.

One Shelby newsboy cap. It has a grosgrain sweatband, a rib knit rear band and a quilted polyester lining.

Is it the same hat as in Peaky Blinders?

It is inspired by the caps worn in the series, not an official replica. The 8-panel newsboy shape and snap brim give the same period look.
