Our take · Researched, not tested

Chocolate leather with a buffalo nickel band. Pocket change never looked this good.

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

Chocolate brown leather is about as classic as a cowboy hat gets, and this one carries a leather band with a buffalo nickel, laced at the back, a concho up front and leather tails. The cowhide is midweight, the outback-style crown sits at 4 in and the brim at 3 in, trim enough for a truck cab and a crowded dance floor. Velcro sweatband inside, sizes SM to XL, assembled in the USA. Wear it with a denim jacket on a cool fall evening.

Cody's tip: Hat off at the table, partner. Set it on its crown on the chair next to you.

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 Western?

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 Western?

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.
