Our take · Researched, not tested

Brown leather with a founder knot. Old-school trim, short brim, no fuss.

The founder knot is about as classic as a cowboy hat band gets, and the Butte ties one in two cords with a double loop. The hat itself is genuine leather in brown, with a western crown that rises 4 1/4 in and a short 2 3/4 in brim, so it won't fight you getting into a truck or under a low barn door. Leather handles wind and rough work but runs warm in the heat. MD to XL, AHM velcro sweatband, assembled in the USA.

Cody's tip: If the knot gets bumped crooked, slide it back to the side of the crown. Front-and-center knots look like a bowtie on a hat.

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 Butte?
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 Butte?
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.
