Our take · Researched, not tested

Black straw roper with a tied band. Simple, and it knows it.

By Cody Hale, cowboy hats desk Pen name, fact-checked by our team

A black straw hat is how you wear summer weight without looking like you just got off the hayride. The Bozeman is midweight stiff Bangora straw in a roper shape, with a 4 1/2 in crown and a 4 in brim that throws real shade. The trim is a plain tied felt band, nothing to argue with. Sizes run from XS all the way to XL with an elastic sweatband. Imported.

Cody's tip: Stiff straw cracks if you crush it. Give it its own seat in the truck, not the floorboard.

Questions

Which size of the Bozeman should I get?

Measure your head where the hat sits and match it to the chart. XS fits heads 20 to 20 7/8 in (52 to 53 cm) on American Hat Makers' chart. XL fits heads 23 5/8 to 24 1/4 in (60 to 61 cm) on American Hat Makers' chart. Between sizes, American Hat Makers says to size up and use the foam insert it includes.

Is the Bozeman UPF rated?

The listing doesn't state a UPF rating, so don't assume one. The 4 inch brim still gives real shade. Hold it up to a bright light: if light shows through, so does UV.

Can you travel with the Bozeman?

Wear it on travel days. It isn't listed as packable, so it shouldn't go folded in a suitcase. On a plane, set it crown down in the overhead bin with nothing on top.

Can this straw hat get wet?

A light shower is fine; a soaking can loosen the weave and the shape. If it gets wet, reshape it with your hands and let it dry at room temperature, crown down, away from heat.

What if it doesn't fit?

American Hat Makers states 90-day easy returns (per American Hat Makers, as stated on their site Nov 6, 2026). Check the store's current policy before you buy; its page is the final word.
