I was referring to the diameter of 340mm/ 13.3 inches, which I believe is a greater diameter than the current standard.
I agree that the ones in the photo, being worn by the Outlander cosplayers appear to be less firm/“floppier”, than a felted one of the same size would tend to be.
The photo of the soldier wear a sewn tam, shows a hat so small on his head, that it appears that any amount of wind would blow it off.

I remember being on parade on the square at Colinton Barracks (Edinburgh) on a wild day. Quite a few bonnets were blown off and seen bowling across the Square.
