- so says the guy with the 8 1/8 head. I scoff at your 7 3/4. You can actually find a mass-produced hat that will fit you. I cannot.
The only suggestion I have is to possibly look into multi-sport helmets if you want more coverage.
What do you wear? Nothing?
That's actually what I wear most of the time, especially when it's cold out and need a liner. I can't do helmet with liner.
I ordered a skate helmet online in an xl size. I'll see how it works out. It'll probably go back. I may try some ski shops later on to see what they stock.
As for a mass produced hat. I wear an irish cap made by hanna. They are comfortable in the large sizes. I have a tilley that fits well too. Both are $50-$100 but they fit well, are comfortable, and come really big
I've never found a baseball cap without some team logo that fits
