The best women's cowboy hat fits your measured head size, suits your plans and flatters your face: a pinch front or cattleman crease in black, brown, cream or natural straw is the easy start. Felt for night shows and fall weddings, straw for summer festivals. We rank every in-stock women's cowboy hat on sizes in stock, brim width, chin cord and price.

Why we chose it ›American Hat Makers. Three women's cowboy hats from our Preferred Brand, picked for the range of sizes they stock.
*Per American Hat Makers, as stated on their site Nov 6, 2026. We earn a commission if you buy, at no cost to you, as with every store we link to. The ranked list below is scored separately, on the criteria in "How we chose".
Cut in women's sizing, scored on fit first, then brim, a chin cord if the store lists one, and price against the middle of the list. Jessica's take: the hat is the main character, so make sure it actually fits before you style it. We scored all 117 in-stock hats on sizes in stock (40%), brim width (20%), chin cord (10%), price against the category median (30%), using only what American Hat Makers lists for each hat. Researched, not tested: we haven't worn these hats, and no pick here is based on reviews or ratings. How we rank
