Our take · Researched, not tested

A ball cap with a wool felt crown and a leather visor. Dressed-up dugout.

A ball cap doesn't usually get the felt-and-leather treatment, which is what makes the Homestead interesting. The crown is camel wool felt in a sand tone, built as a structured, low profile six panel cap, and the visor is leather. The bill is 2 3/4 in and the crown 4 1/2 in. It closes with a leather strap and an antique copper buckle, and an internal message reads Ephesians 4:32, Redeemed. It comes in one size and is imported. Felt makes it a cooler-weather cap, good with a field jacket or a quarter-zip.

Walt's tip: Ball cap or not, this is still felt. Brush it with a soft brush and keep it off a hot dashboard.

Great for

  • Cool weather, thanks to a wool felt crown
  • Field jackets and quarter-zips
  • A dressier take on a ball cap

Skip it if

  • You need a hat that packs flat: the store doesn't list it as packable
  • You want a hat for hot days: look at straw
  • You need a fitted size: this one is one size

Questions

What size is the Homestead?
The store lists it as one size, which it describes as one size fits most. If you measure at either end of the size chart, a fitted hat in your size may sit better. A foam insert can take up a little room.
Is the Homestead 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 clean the Homestead?
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.

No. American Hat Makers sells it. The store button opens their product page, and we earn a commission if you buy, at no cost to you.
