Our take · Researched, not tested

Brown leather, eight panels and a little Saturday-afternoon ease.

By Walt Mercer, felt, fit and care desk Pen name, fact-checked by our team

A brown leather cap looks at home with a corduroy jacket or a heavy sweater, and it handles a gusty afternoon better than a felt hat would. This Bourbon St is lightweight cowhide sewn in eight panels, with a 4 1/8 in crown that gives it a fuller top and a 2 1/2 in brim. There's no outer band, and a twill sweatband is sewn in. It comes in MD, LG and XL. Imported.

Walt's tip: If it gets caught in rain, blot it dry and let it finish drying naturally, away from heat.

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.

Is the Bourbon St enough for sun?

Not on its own. A cap or peak shades your eyes but leaves your ears and neck exposed, as MD Anderson points out. Add sunscreen, or pick a brimmed hat for long days outside.

How do you care for a leather hat like the Bourbon St?

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.
