  • anyone know where I can get a very big cycling cap to fit my monstrous head? For days when I dare to leave the helmet at home and don't want to look like a schoolboy humpty dumpty. I know rapha do diff sizes but if there's anything else...

  • condor does campagnolo and their own hats. my head's pushing the 62cm mark, and it fits me.

  • Smeear

  • 60 cm around the outside

    • SMEEAR*
      jesus man what are you hiding in there hahahaha

    smeears hat emporium

  • As chris (smeear) has not opsted yet I will. Me (rob) and Chris are working on a label called smeear. we so far make hats and we are working on hip pouches there will be lots other stuff in the near future. we will both be on the bridges ride and will be bring hat's and bags with us for people to look at so see you there come and say hello.

  • I'm sure Smeear can sort you out.

    But its always nice to have options and here are two more - Smeear can use them as market research :)

    Walz make decent caps. Free postage if you just order a few. They claim to fit up to size 24" heads (approx 61cm), so may be a little tight, but decent handmade in the US hats.

    And this guy Chuey makes really nice custom hats too, maybe worth dropping a line:

  • Oooh, you're bringing your hip bags? I would love one as soon as possible for a friend. She really needs something and we're on the Zugster waiting list for some crazy custom thing in a pattern that will match her wellies, so something to get us through the next 6 months would be wonderful.

    When are you guys starting with selling these? And how quick can I get one?

  • well we are going to bring the prototypes to the bridges ride, so everyone can look then. We have not finalised designs completely yet but have a look and let us know what you think.

  • look guys iits 11 o'clock i can't spend ALL my life on here can i !!!!!

    but yeah http://www.smeear.co.uk is your first port of call, rob and i are working like beavers at the moment to get the bags ready for people to see (dont know if i will manage)

    but i am just about to post the new crazy star hat ive made for Dave (badrider)

    and in new breaking news ive just heared that we have a massive shipment of linton tweeds (from cumbria) coming in the next few weeks
    Linton are the people who supply the tweed for channel

    so all you people who have been quietly waiting for a tweed number its on its way

    :) this is very good news

  • Wicked, thanks all. Smeear your hats are fine indeed. I'll get out the tape measure. If Linton tweeds have always done chanel their stuff is beautiful- my friend got herself a skirt suit made out of some chanel tweed and it looked stunnning, if a bit headteacher-y (tho if that does it for you...)

  • yes...how much tweed would you need to house a 62cm head?

  • come on ppl what your biggest head size

    i wont laff at you, it's market research...

    honest ;)

  • sod it,i dont want one anymore...i got bored waiting

  • SMEEAR come on ppl what your biggest head size
    i wont laff at you, it's market research...
    honest ;)

    Boofhead here too.. around 61cm.. based on the tried and true "USB cable wrapped around head then stretched along tape measure" method. The things I do to confuse my gf..

  • My head might be bigger... Hats never fit my head :( I'll measure later when I've sobered up from last night...

  • To help your market research - my head has a 60cm circumference - and I weighed 12lbs 5oz at birth, my poor mother....

  • smeear! how much would a tweed cap be?

  • 60cm. 9lbs 4oz.

  • 62 cm for me too. Hovis Brown and me edging aHead!
