You definitely should! Nothing more American than a cowboy hat! Make sure it's made in America and not some cheap foreign trash (made in Mexico is acceptable)

If you want really fine, custom made hats, you want the Virginia City Hatmaker, Pascal Baboulin. My first Western hat was a nice off-the-shelf Stetson, which was really beaten up after a few years. In Virginia City, Pascal has a shop and will custom make whatever kind of hat you want, not just Western wear. Made one for me in about 1:15. I mailed him my old Stetson and he re-shaped it and made me a second custom hat, so I rotate three hats. He also has a place in Virhinia, I think. Makes hats for the theater trade. His web site is VCHatmaker.com and you can get the phone number. Some hacker jerk had the site messed up a few months ago, but you could see photos. I imagine if you call his shop and describe or send photos, he can make whatever you want.

Texas has slowly been sliding into becoming a liberal shithole. Ask yourself why the Republican controlled Texas house would appoint Democrats to all the leading committees? Ask yourself why the governor of Texas won't do anything about the mutilation of children by mentally deranged parents. Half the politicians that run as republicans are NOT.

Cool video! I don’t think I would bring a first time hat buyer to the 20 or 40x hats. I would first ask a few questions, then go from there. I am guessing their 7x hats are in the $250 range, and a little easier to digest in terms of price. Then, once they get used to wearing a hat they can go in for that $500 hat with a custom crown and brim. For your occasional hat wearer, that 7x is going to last a long time and look great.

If you just want a hat so you can look like a cowboy and you're only going to wear it 2 times a year, you could get buy with anything off the shelf from any Boot Barn or Cavenders or other local Western store. Most people who don't normally wear a Western hat don't know the difference between one style and the next much less the difference in quality. I agree that a good hat on a 1st time wearer might be a real waste and complete dis-service to the hat when he throws it in the back window of the sedan and leaves it there in the hot sun for weeks just so his friends will think he's studdly. When you get a good hat you should know something about Western Hat Protocol and how to take care of it. ...Things like never set your hat on a bed. Never set the hat down on the brim, always upside down on the crown. Just like it was when it came out of the box. Save your box for hat storage in your closet. Never store your hat in a plastic bag - brush the dust off when you want to wear it - it's natural fibers need to breath. Take off the stupid, cheap hatband that came with the hat and put on a good one that fits the hat and your personality. The hatband can either make the hat or destroy it. When wearing the hat, always tip your hat when you meet the ladies and the Rose of San Antone. It is customary for men to remove their hat when entering a building and hold it in their hand. If the restaurant, meeting room, church or other establishment does not have a hat & coat rack....keep it on your head. Many a good hat has been sat on or had soup spilled on it because it was occupying the empty chair at the table or next to you in the pew. Remember what dear old Grandad always used to say: "The best hat rack you'll ever find is the one sitting on your shoulders".

I good hat is a real investment. It’s cool in the summer, warm in the winter and they will fit it to your head. That’s more than the brim and the crown. Those are final shaping details. If you are considering spending a couple hundred on a hat then you it should be fitted. Just like custom boots. Warning though. Once you start wearing them the off the shelf stuff won’t satisfy anymore.

I'm an American who's been to the UK. I know exactly what's bothering you. If you walk into the wrong pub, there's always some wanker looking to grab your hat. That means you'll have to fight him, and maybe his friends, to get it back. In the end you'll have a trashed hat and a broken nose, at least. You have to ask yourself, is it worth it ?

I'd like to get another good beaver hat, but for now my buffalo felt Stetson is my favorite lid for everyday wear. I have a $300 grey Stetson for formal occasions, but I don't take it out that often.

After he adjusted it its becomes very cool

I understand the need for a hat with a bring, as now that I am older, I do not want to get sun on my face and neck while out working.

I have a $450 70X Beaver Stetson and I absolutely love it! I don’t wear it very often though. I wear my 60 dollar black felt hat more than any other. I don’t need expensive hats.

Damn gorgeous hat! Putting in on the list to stop at, during our trip across the country, on I-20!

Great hats. Thank you for sharing.

Looks like a great company and love the colors

howdy! i've one since 1987 and still good! Texas always the great!

Excellent choice on the 40x pecan, I got the same one for my first American Hat and love it! It looks darker at night time or in a dark place like a bar or dance hall and has a real nice brown colour on a sunny warm day. I'm hoping to get a silverbelly colour and steel at some point as well.

I love my 200X American Hat in Steele from The Best Hat Store! This is an incredible hat! It is perfect! All beaver!

Been here twice. I got a 7x silverbelly trimmed down to 3 inch brim. It is dang near perfect! I just wish I could have afforded a higher x. I went to get a straw hat and didn't have the same experience. The shaper didn't realize the sides on a cattlemen crease dips down and makes a gentle crescent at the bottom of the side crease. It didn't fit right but I finally gave up on him. I thought I could get it shaped better later. I noticed the hat at the end of the video almost had the same problem as mine. These hats are awesome. I will only buy this brand in the future and yes I have a Stetson. Just make sure you get it shaped right by knowing what you want when you go in. Bring a picture or something.

When I look at old photos of the west, I notice a lot of the hat brims don't have a up turn. I heard that the up turn started because when roping the cowboy dosen't want his hat to be hit by the rope? I like the strait brim hat. Look at the hat Clint Eastwood wears in the movie, The Good, Bad and ugly. What style of hat is that? Thank you.

That brim is flared up just a little too high. haha
