Bobble hat for big head!

22 replies

I’m looking for a nice big size bobble hat or beanie to fit my big head! I like the chunky knit, plain colour styles that almost look like a big tea cosy. Everything I’ve ordered so far has been too small and I end up looking like I’m wearing an elf hat! Anyone found one for their big bonce!??

Primark ones are quite deep and stretchy . I have a joules one which I love but bought a couple of the Primark ones in bright colours .

I’ve got a Joules one from a few years ago which is good but newer versions are tiny and not stretchy. Deep, that’s the word to describe it.

Big bobble hats! They are pricier but cosy and great quality.

Planet sized head here and I have a couple of the Topshop thick knit hats with big faux fur pompoms that fit a treat.

I've got a gorgeous Barbour one this year and it is big!

Beware Primark. Aesthetically pleasing but wafer thin and bloody freezing. Was chatting to the woman on the till about having been eyeing up spendy cashmere ones and made a crap joke about not caring if I boil wash a £2 one. Fucking rubbish... Will end up spending prooer money so a warm hat y'know... Keeps my head warm!

Wow thanks all. I thought my thread had died a death. //Sym now are they called BigBobble because they literally have a big bobble or because they are a larger fit?? Some nice plain styles, I’m tempted. I’ll also check out TopShop and Barbour now. Thanks for the Primark (big) heads up 😂

Actually, do you know what, I’m going to look in the men’s section too, can’t believe I didn’t think of that before.

YY to big bobble. They have big nibbles and they are quite big fitting.

Big bobbles! Not big nibbles!

They have huge bobbles and are big fitting too.

Barts are great. Warm, last well and I have a huge head so buy men’s ones. They also have a fleece band so are comfy and cosy

Another vote for fat face. Lovely big bobble hat with a furry bobble last winter Grin

It slouches like a beanie and is quite thick and soft.

Fat face hats are too small for me. I've just got a nice one from M&S OP - chunky knit with faux fur bobble. That fits quite well. I can't believe I never thought of looking in the men's department!! I bet they are cheaper too...

Another vote for Barts, the ones with the fleece band are the best things ever!

Ooh so many nice hats. Those Barts ones are lovely.
