Our take · Researched, not tested

Brown felt with a crushable streak. Built for the long way around.

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

Brown is the color of dirt roads, saddle leather and every good hat your granddad never took off. Here it comes in crushable wool felt that's listed as packable, so you can stash it behind the seat and not lose sleep. A tooled faux leather band with stitching sits at the base of a 4 1/4 in western crown, and the brim spans 3 1/2 in, trim enough for the truck cab. Sizes SM to XL, and it's imported.

Cody's tip: Keep it off the dashboard once it's back in the truck. Crushable doesn't mean it likes being baked.

Great for

  • Truck and camping trips, thanks to a packable build
  • Everyday brown that goes with denim and boots
  • Fall and winter wear in wool felt

Skip it if

  • You want a hat for hot days: look at straw

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 Showdown 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.
Can you pack the Showdown?
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 clean the Showdown?
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.
Do you sell this hat?
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.
