A mortar board is also known as a trencher or graduation cap.
This is a traditional hard-crown mortar board, where the cap is rigid, and sizing is according to centimetre circumference around your head - see our sizing assistance below.
A hard-crown mortar board is the original, iconic type of academic and graduation head wear.
Features a pointed hard crown and wool felt finish. A thick black tassel suspends from the centre top of the square board. Our hard crown mortar boards have beautifully mitred corner stitching and are exceptional quality. Made using Australian wool felt.

How to Wear Your Graduation Cap
We show you how to wear your mortar board
Place the deepest part of the cap the back side of your head. Keep the flat top parallel to the ceiling. Your university will prescribe which side of your head to place the tassel.
Sizing for headwear is head circumference about 2cm above your ears. If you don't have a tape measure, use a length of string and measure the string.

*Our soft cap mortars are slightly elasticised so there is some allowance between sizes. If you are in-between sizes, always go for the larger size. ie: if you measure 58cms, we recommend to choose size large.
Keep in mind that all head shapes are different and this will affect sizing and fit. If you are unsure, just remember you can exchange your headwear according to the terms and conditions on our website.
