Gone Country Hats

Leatherette is a synthetic material made to look and feel like leather. As a sweatband it is smooth against the forehead, wipes clean easily, and doesn't need conditioning. It handles sweat well, though it won't mold to your head the way real leather can over time.

Brown and black are the most versatile and hide dust and wear. Buckskin and silver belly are lighter, classic western shades that look sharp in sunny settings but show dirt sooner. Pick the color that suits your boots, belt, and the clothes you wear most.

Yes. These cowboy hats are made to fit both men and women and come in numbered sizes. Women with long hair should measure with their hair styled the way they plan to wear it, and may prefer a slightly lower crown for balance.

A cattleman has a center crease with a dent on each side, giving a balanced, traditional look. A bull rider shape is bolder, with a deeper crease and a more aggressive profile tied to rodeo. The Big Sky uses the bull rider cut with a 5 inch crown.

Both are fine. An open crown has no crease, so worn as is it gives a tall, old west look. If you prefer a creased style, a hatter can steam and shape the crown to suit you. Some wearers let it take on a shape naturally over time.
