Our take · Researched, not tested

Olive felt for the guy whose closet is half field jackets.

Olive is the surplus-store green that works with almost every outdoor layer you own. Here it's midweight wool felt shaped by a western teardrop crease, the crown reaching 4 1/8 in and the brim 3 1/2 in, left without a band so the color carries it. You adjust the sweatband with velcro, and the hat comes in SM, MD and LG. Pair it with khaki, brown leather and a waxed field jacket on a cold Saturday.

Walt's tip: Felt is a cool-weather material. When summer heat arrives, store it crown-down in a closet.

Skip it if

  • You need a hat that packs flat: the store doesn't list it as packable

Questions

Which size of the Rancher 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. LG fits heads 22 7/8 to 23 1/2 in (58 to 59 cm) on American Hat Makers' chart. Between sizes, American Hat Makers says to size up and use the foam insert it includes.
What do you wear with the Rancher?
A coat, a good knit or a jacket in cooler months. Wear it level or tipped slightly forward with the pinch in front, and handle it by the brim so the crown doesn't crack.
Can you travel with the Rancher?
Wear it on travel days. It isn't listed as packable, so it shouldn't go folded in a suitcase. For a checked bag, use a hat box with the crown stuffed.
How do you care for a felt hat like this?
A soft brush after dusty days, a rest on its crown, and no hot cars. If it gets rained on, shake it off, turn the sweatband down and let it air-dry at room temperature.
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.
