How to Size a New Era 59FIFTY (Without Guessing)

A 59FIFTY is a fitted cap. There is no snap, no strap, no give. Get the size wrong and it either sits on top of your head or leaves a mark across your forehead. Here is how to get it right first time.

Measure your head

Take a soft tape measure around your head, about a finger's width above your ears and across the middle of your forehead — where the cap's sweatband will actually sit. Keep it level and snug, not tight. Measure twice. Note the number in inches.

Match the measurement

Head (inches) 59FIFTY size
21 1/2 6 7/8
21 7/8 7
22 1/4 7 1/8
22 5/8 7 1/4
23 7 3/8
23 1/2 7 1/2
23 7/8 7 5/8
24 1/4 7 3/4
24 5/8 7 7/8
25 8

Between sizes? Go up

Wool and poly caps relax a little with wear; they never shrink back to a size smaller. If you land between two, take the larger one.
