Hi all, was hoping for some advice about the size differences between different styles of Champion hats.
I've had a five year break from riding, though in that time I went out on a hack and (stupidly) used my old Champion Junior CPX3000 Hat - stupidly because the last time I'd worn it I fell on a jump and slammed my head HARD twice.
That hat had been fitted for me when I was about 18 (25 now) and was a 71-8 (58cm). When I wore it on the subsequent hack, it still fitted well and this would have been a couple of years ago - so into my twenties.
I really liked that hat but this time I've gone with the Champion Junior X-Air in the same size, which I was able to reserve online at Go Outdoors.
I do understand that sizes between brands differ significantly, so had I gone for a different brand I'd never even taken the chance ordering online, but I'm just curious as to how likely it is that the fit will be the same? Given it's the same size in the same brand?
Obviously I won't part with my money if it's not a good fit but I'm just interested at this point as to what difference - if any - I can expect when I pick it up?
