Our take · Researched, not tested

Silver belly felt, the good-guy color with a tall gus crown.

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

Silver belly is that pale, creamy gray every movie hero wears in the last scene. The Deputy in silver belly is wool felt shaped with a 5 in gus crown and a curled cattleman brim of 4 in. The sweatband adjusts with Velcro. It's imported. Light felt is a fine choice for dressier evenings and cooler weather, like a winter wedding, a Christmas party or a night at the stock show. Pair it with a dark jacket and pressed jeans so the hat gets the spotlight.

Cody's tip: Light felt shows smudges, so handle it by the crown with clean hands and keep a soft brush handy.

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 SM to XL. SM fits heads 21 to 21 7/8 in (54 to 55 cm) on American Hat Makers' chart. Between sizes, size up and add an insert.

Can you wear the Deputy in summer?

You can, at night shows, weddings and anywhere air-conditioned, but felt runs warm on a hot afternoon. Tradition puts felt from Labor Day to Memorial Day and straw in between, per Resistol.

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 clean the Deputy?

Brush felt with a soft hat brush, counterclockwise, and lift lint with a barely damp cloth or a lint roller. Keep it away from heat, which can shrink felt, and store it on its crown so the brim keeps its shape.

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.
