I can't take my mask off properly with a 6... it always flies off. I've heard tales of guys being able to do that, but I can't take my mask off with anything bigger than a 4 stitch.

I wear an All Star I-Bar Vision mask and can remove it wearing either a 6 or 8 stitch hat. If the harness is adjusted properly, it should not be a problem.

At one time I used a Wilson low profile mask and wore a 4 stitch hat with that mask. It had less to do with removing the mask and more to do with the bill of a 6 or 8 stitch hat sticking out too far to be comfortable with that mask.

Wear a bucket and you do not have to worry about the number of stitches! (except in Alabama?)
