🧵 How to Measure Your Head for a Yooper Chook

1. Wrap a string around your head, across the top of your eyebrows.

2. Measure the length of the string.

3. This is the circumference the hat will fit around your head.

⚠️ Note: Sizes may vary slightly due to the stretch of the fabric.

Every Yooper Chook has some stretch to the fabric. Some fleece is stretchier than others, but they all have some give. Also, the fleece is not wind proof. One could not breathe through the facewarmer if they were. But they definitely make a huge difference in the wind regardless. 

Double Domes have less stretch. Be sure to measure your noggin to help the cause. Since each Yooper Chook is hand cut and handmade,  that means they are not precise  measurements for each  individual chook.

You can Expect your order to be shipped out within 2-3 business days of placing the order. Depending on Location you can expect your package anywhere from 2-5 business days after shipping. Check your USPS tracking number for more information.

A Double Dome is just like a regular chook, but has an additional layer of fleece in the crown for extra warmth. Perfect for those who live in more extreme climates.
