Our take · Researched, not tested

Blackstone leather with mesh sides. Tough hide, cooler head.

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

Leather hats are great right up until July shows up. The Stampede gets around that with mesh sides set into blackstone cowhide, so air gets in while the leather takes the wind and the knocks. A round braided band and a tassel give it some cowboy swagger. The crown is a 3 3/4 in sirocco shape and the brim runs 2 3/4 in, short enough to stay out of your way in the truck. Velcro sweatband, SM to XL, assembled in the USA.

Cody's tip: Set it down crown-first on the seat, not brim-first. A leather brim bent the wrong way stays bent.

Side view on a 7 in head, drawn to scale. Dashed lines mean the store doesn't list that number.

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.

Where would you wear the Stampede?

Casual western days: rodeos, barbecues, rides and concerts. Take it off for the anthem and at the table, and set it down on its crown.

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 care for a leather hat like the Stampede?

Wipe it with a soft, barely damp cloth and let it dry away from heat, which can stiffen and crack leather. A leather conditioner keeps it supple; test it inside the crown first. Never machine-wash it.

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.
