Teen and Older Boys' Hats
Teen and older boys' hats cover ages 8 to 15, the years when he decides what goes on his head. Beanies pull straight on and fold into a coat pocket, and hat sets pair the hat with a matching piece, so he has one less thing to put together in the morning. Both have a page of their own. Hats work for the walk to school, football on a cold Saturday and evenings out with friends.
Teenage boy hats are not sized by height like his clothes, so measure round his head and check the size on each product page. If he has just had a growth spurt or wears his hair longer, a hat with some stretch is the safer choice. A beanie on its own is the lighter option for autumn, and a hat set adds a second layer for the coldest weeks of January and February. Check the care label before washing. For younger brothers, see Kids.

Your questions answered
MINOTI's teen and older boys' hats include beanies and hat sets for ages 8 to 15, from boys' hats for age 9 to styles for 15-year-olds, in sizes listed on each product page.
How do I pick the right hat size for a boy aged 10 or 11?
Measure round his head just above the ears and eyebrows, then check the size on the product page. Boys' hats for age 10 and age 11 should pull down over his ears without leaving a red line; if it rides up by lunchtime, it is too small.
Which is warmer for a cold school run, a beanie or a hat set?
A hat set is warmer on days below 5°C, because the matching piece adds a second layer. A beanie on its own suits milder mornings around 10°C and fits in a school bag once he is indoors.
