Our take · Researched, not tested

A black straw roper hat with studs, for summer nights out.

The women's Montana is a roper-style cowboy hat in black bangora straw, firm and midweight, with a 4 1/2 in crown and a 4 in brim. A faux leather band studded in silver circles the crown, and the sweatband is elastic. Black straw takes a sundress or cutoffs and makes them look like evening plans. Sizes run SM to XL, so most heads have a match.

Margo's tip: Measure around your head just above the ears and match it to our size chart before you order.

Questions

Which size of the Montana 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. 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 Montana 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 Montana?
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.
