Our take · Researched, not tested

Black buffalo leather and deerskin tails. Main character on horseback.

This is the hat for when you want western with some grit. It's black buffalo leather with a low cattleman crown at 3 3/4 in and a 3 3/4 in brim. Details stack up nicely: a diamond concho up front, a native inset along the band, and deerskin tails trailing off the back. Formula: this hat, a black turtleneck, dark jeans and tall boots. Sizes MD, LG and XL with an AHM velcro sweatband. Assembled in the USA.

Jessica's tip: Pull your hair over one shoulder so the tails at the back have room to show.

Great for

  • Fall and winter western outfits
  • Riding and windy days, thanks to leather
  • A lower crown that doesn't add much height

Skip it if

  • You need a hat that packs flat: the store doesn't list it as packable

Questions

How should it fit?
Level on your head, about a finger above your eyebrows, clearing the tops of your ears. Sizes in stock run MD to XL. MD fits heads 22 to 22 3/4 in (56 to 57 cm) on American Hat Makers' chart. Between sizes, size up and add an insert.
Where would you wear the Badlands?
Casual western days: rodeos, barbecues, rides and concerts. Take it off for the anthem and at the table, and set it down on its crown.
Does it pack flat?
The store doesn't list it as packable, so don't fold it. Folding can leave a permanent crease. Wear it when you travel, or set it crown down in the overhead bin.
How do you care for a leather hat like the Badlands?
Wipe it with a soft, barely damp cloth and let it dry away from heat, which can stiffen and crack leather. A leather conditioner keeps it supple; test it inside the crown first. Never machine-wash it.
Can you return it?
Per American Hat Makers, as stated on their site Nov 6, 2026, it offers 90-day easy returns. Policies change, so confirm on the store's page before you order.
Do you sell this hat?
No. American Hat Makers sells it. The store button opens their product page, and we earn a commission if you buy, at no cost to you.
