Our take · Researched, not tested

Copper leather, the color of a fall afternoon on the trail.

Copper is the warm, reddish choice in the Crusher lineup, and it looks right at home against autumn leaves. This is lightweight cowhide formed into an outback hat with a 4 in crown, a 3 in brim and an oiled braided leather band. An adjustable chin cord hangs below for windy stretches, and the hat is crushable and marked packable for road trips. The sweatband is Velcro. It is assembled in the USA. Try it with olive, khaki or a flannel shirt.

Margo's tip: Keep it out of a hot car trunk. Heat is hard on leather, and that copper finish deserves better.

Questions

Which size of the Crusher should I get?
Measure your head where the hat sits and match it to the chart. SM fits heads 21 to 21 7/8 in (54 to 55 cm) on American Hat Makers' chart. 3X fits heads 25 to 25 5/8 in (64 to 65 cm) on American Hat Makers' chart. Between sizes, American Hat Makers says to size up and use the foam insert it includes.
Is the Crusher UPF rated?
The listing doesn't state a UPF rating, so don't assume one. The 3 inch brim still gives real shade. Hold it up to a bright light: if light shows through, so does UV.
Can you pack the Crusher?
Yes. The store lists it as packable or crushable. Pack it crown down at the top of your bag with the crown stuffed with socks, then reshape the brim with your hands when you arrive.
How do you care for a leather hat like the Crusher?
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.
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.
