I have just bought second hand CO H2000 for showing, but its a bit tight on the sides of my head, ok front and back if you get me. I have more of a round head than an oval one I suppose, but my everyday hat is the same size so I thought it would fit. Because I have a big head (unfortunately!) I'm not sure the high peak suits and that I should get a Fiona because its slimmer. I was just going to buy a size up, but has anyone tried this to find they are a different shape or different measurements?

Thanks
 
My Fiona is two sizes smaller than my 2000 however it is to tight and I think I ought to have got one size smaller and got some shimms.
 
I prefer the look of the Fiona, but when I tried it didnt fit me anywhere, must have an odd shape head. I ended up with an H2000, although I think it looks very bulky, it is also a tad tight, but as its only for the showring, it wont be worn for long periods of time. Im sure show hats arent made for comfort anyway.
 
I've got the showjumper xp..where I liked the look of the fiona it didn't fit me whereas the xp is really comfortable.
 
Yeah, I think it is. I was going to get the Fiona but it was dearer :o so settled for the H200, and I can get away with it as I'm quite petite and show a pony.
 
If you can afford it Id go for the Fiona. I wore a H2000 for about 10 years finally bought the Fiona a couple of years ago and it is the most comfy hat. The sizing was the same, I have an odd shaped head and have the sides padded out. Both hats were fitted by the CO hat fitting team
