Wool felt body is treated for water resistance — light rain rolls off rather than soaking in. The crown sits at a moderate 4-inch height with a center crease, and the brim runs about 3 inches all around, which is the sweet spot for sun protection without crossing into ten-gallon territory. Leather sweatband, grosgrain trim. Sized small through XL.
This is a working outdoor hat — fly fishing, ranch work, golf, fall hunting, summer ballgames at noon, anywhere the sun is the actual issue. Crushable enough to pack, structured enough to look right after a long drive.
Stetson manufactures fur-felt and wool-felt hats in Garland, Texas — operating since 1865.
