The Artist satin hat liner: a lively swirl of geometric shapes in jewel tones, like a small modern painting hidden inside your hat. Luxury satin silk with a smooth feel, strong structure and long lasting colour.
Self supporting and reusable, it sits inside the crown of a fedora, western hat or dress hat held by the sweatband, with a touch of glue on the hidden bottom edge or the doubled top seam if you like and can be moved between hats whenever you like. A favourite with custom hat makers because it keeps its shape during blocking and upgrades even a basic felt into a boutique piece.
Every liner is about 4.75 inches (12 cm) tall and made to fit most crown styles. Fitting takes a minute: place it in the crown, trim the excess if you like, then tuck about half an inch behind the sweatband. The liner holds its shape on its own; a touch of glue is optional, on the bottom edge that tucks behind the sweatband or along the doubled top seam, where it never shows.

Which size should I order?
Start with 58 cm (US 7 1/4). If you are holding one size only, this is the one that covers the most hats: right for medium and large, and it will still go into a small hat.
For proper coverage, hold three: 56 cm (US 7) medium, 58 cm (US 7 1/4) large, 60 cm (US 7 1/2) extra large.
Going up adds coverage. Going down loses it quickly. A liner that is too small does not reach the sweatband, so it pulls against the crown and lifts away. A liner that is a little too big is not a problem, because the extra takes up as soft fullness behind the sweatband where nobody sees it. It stops looking crisp only when you go far bigger than the hat.
When you are between sizes, go up.
