| Hats Article | The hat is also formed to be a specific shape. This is just as important as the size, as heads vary in length, width, and lumps. Some people have round heads, other elongated ovals. The shape can only truly be measured using specialised tools such as a conformateur. Shapes can include: Round oval Regular oval Long oval Parts of a hat Crown - the portion of a hat covering the top of the head. Brim - a projection of stiff material from the bottom of the hat's crown horizontally all around the circumference of the hat Sweatband - the inside part of the hat, this is the part which touches the top of the wearer's head Hatband - a leather strip, ribbon, or string at the intersection of the crown and brim to hold the hat's size.
