Classic Center Dent Fedora Styling
The Hester features one of the most recognizable fedora profiles: a structured Center Dent crown paired with a medium-width turn-down brim. At 2 1/4 inches, the brim offers more presence and coverage than a traditional stingy-brim fedora while remaining easy to wear with a wide range of outfits.
The result is a polished silhouette that feels timeless rather than overly formal.
Lightweight Braided Construction
Crafted from a blend of 56% paper, 37% polypropylene and 7% polyester, the Hester combines traditional braided-hat aesthetics with modern materials. The construction gives the hat texture and definition while helping keep it lightweight.
Its unlined interior further contributes to a comfortable, less bulky feel, making the Hester particularly well suited to warm-weather dressing and everyday wear.
Refined Grosgrain Detailing
A striped Japanese grosgrain band provides a distinctive finishing touch around the crown. The understated pattern adds visual interest while retaining the sophisticated character associated with Bailey hats.
Combined with the Center Dent crown and turn-down brim, this detailing gives the Hester enough personality to stand out while remaining highly versatile.
A Versatile Bailey Fedora
Whether styled with a linen shirt, polo, blazer, knitwear or relaxed weekend clothing, the Bailey Hester Fedora offers an easy way to introduce classic hat styling into a modern wardrobe.
For customers searching for a Bailey fedora hat, men's braided fedora, Center Dent fedora, summer fedora hat or a stylish turn-down brim hat, the Hester offers a refined balance of comfort, structure and timeless design.

How to Measure for a Perfect Fit
How to Measure Your Head
Use a soft tape measure. Wrap it around your head about 1cm above your ears and across the mid-forehead. Don't pull too tightly. If your measurement is between sizes, round up to the nearest centimeter.
How to Measure Your Chest/Bust
Measure around the fullest part of your chest or bust, keeping the tape measure parallel to the floor.
How to Measure Your Waist
Measure around your natural waistline, which is typically the narrowest part of your torso.
How to Measure Your Hips
Stand with your feet together and measure around the fullest part of your hips, ensuring the tape goes over your buttocks.
Important Sizing Notes
Brand Variations
Please be aware that sizes can vary between manufacturers, especially for our motorsport team apparel and footwear. Our charts are a strong guide, but we recommend checking product descriptions for any brand-specific fit notes.
"One Size Fits Most" (OSFM)
Some caps are adjustable (OSFM). These generally fit head circumferences from 54cm to 62cm (US Size 6 3/4 to 7 3/4). This provides flexibility, but for a precise fit, we recommend a sized hat.
