Need Kippot help!

I am wondering what size kippots to order--in other words, what is the "average" size to get for most men?  I ordered 16 cm but the distributor emailed me back and said that is very small.   I appreciate any help you can provide.  TIA.

    That is a good question, i hadn't thought about that yet.  I guess maybe the medium size would be good for most men??

    I ended up going with 18 as that is what my distributor suggested.  FI is going to get his locally.

    Funny you should ask.  I ordered the discount ones (the ones that temples usually order in bulk) and they are GINORMOUS!  Literally.  I don't think I have ever met someone with a head big enough to fill these out.  My FI (who we got an appropriate sized one for) wanted to order smaller ones, but there will be so few people that need them anyway, it's just not worth it.As for the size - I have no idea.  Just don't go for the bulk rate.

    I thought they come standard one size fits all. I actually just called my vendor and he said that they are mostly one size.
