    My 10x American is the nicest hat I’ve ever had. It was $535 but shaped to my head and custom bend. Love it!

    American makes great quality hats for the price. I have shaped quite a few American 10x hats and they have all been very consistent. Thanks for checking out the channel!

    The price of the hat actually depends on the quality of the wool/fur/felt the hat is made of. While some of the ordinary wool/fur/felts like rabbit and stuff are going to be less more often than not.. the more premium the felt, the higher the cost of the hat generally. For ordinary wool/fur/felt hats, you're looking at the space of about $50 or thereabouts and going up from there. For the more expensive wool/fur/felts like elk and beaver and such, you're looking more in the space of about $200 and going on up from there. For the pure beaver felts, they're about the top premium fur felt that you can get really and those will start anywhere from about $300 and generally a lot more expensive. The most expensive felt hat I've ever heard of is called the Diamanté. And those usually have diamonds and things added to the hat band and are made of premium fur felt. And that one usually runs closer to $1,000.

    A good hat won't have wool in it. It will have beaver and rabbit, the best hats are pure beaver. I would not spend ten cents on a wool hat of any kind and I've worn hat's all my life.

    Good content. Except I would recommend looking up prices currently. A 7x is $435 and a 20x is $605 for Americans. I personally own a few Americans from a 10,15x. Americans have become so popular the prices are a bit higher but the quality is there

    Lloyd, I will totally agree, prices of felt hats have gone up significantly over the past few years. I know that I’ve gotten really lucky scoring some good cyber Monday deals that have got me the prices that I mentioned in this video. If I could make a blanket statement, I would say budget a minimum of $400-$500 for a good hat just as a overall summary. Thanks for checking out the channel! S^C

    Yes that is one of the major benefits of the higher quality hats. Their shape is very consistent. Honestly I really value a consistent and accurate hat shape and that’s why I sometimes spring for a high quality hat. S^C

    What quality hat should I go with? I want one that will last, I only plan on taking out for a day at the range, a hike, going to the state fair; that kind of deal. I picked up a Stetson Revenger gambler style hat for $150. It says that it's 4X buffalo fur felt.

    For casual use, I think a 4X is sufficient. However longevity will catch up to you at some point. I really like the @American Hat Company, Lucky 7 serious hats. They last forever and are at a really great price range. My daily wear is a Luck 7 silver belly. Thanks for the question!

    What crown shape is that light brown 7x?

    That is usually referred to as a minnick crown. There are a few variations of it that change the look quite a bit. This one is very narrow over to top with very small dents in the sides. I have seen some with a wider top and large dents. Both crowns called by the same name. S^C

    Don’t worry, we have plenty of other videos that talk about the correct way to store a hat. We say many times in our videos this is just for the display for the video and this is not the proper way for them to sit. Check out this video if you’re looking for that kzread.info/dash/bejne/nZV4pKyPYKTgg7Q.html
