We work hard every day to continue to be the best hat makers in America. Though we are steeped in tradition, we embrace modern practices to deliver hats of the highest quality.

Our Hats Have Been Seen On

  • Top Grade Materials - Manufactured to the highest standard, our materials are put through rigorous testing to ensure their quality and then expertly crafted into one of our timeless designs. Our leather is supple, our felt is durable, and our straw tightly woven. 
  • Hats That Hold Their Shape - All American Hat Makers hats are guaranteed to hold their shape, and will not stretch or shrink with everyday wear. This mens leather cowboy hat can be restored even if it gets warped. Purchasing our lifetime refurbishment at checkout will guarantee that if your hat is accidentally damaged you can send it back to us for a painless and timely repair.
  • They Fit! - Our hats fit! It sounds simple enough but with so many shapes and sizes of heads out there it can be a challenge. To overcome this obstacle we’ve designed several fit adjustment systems, all of which remain hidden behind the sweatband to keep your hat looking sharp from all angles. Check out more here.

Every one of our hats come with a 50 year guarantee. That means that if your hat fails in any way to meet your standards due to our craftsmanship then we’ll repair or replace your hat free of charge. So if your hat starts unraveling in 50 years, we’ll take it back and make it right.

How To Measure Your Head

1

Grab a soft measuring tape or a piece of string (like twine or a shoelace) and a ruler or measuring tool

2

Wrap a soft tape or string around your head to measure about 1/4 to 1/2 inch above your ear and about 3/4 to an 1" inch above your brow line (see image).

Mark the tape or your string, where it intersects, with your finger.

3

Record your measurement in inches or centimeters (centimeters is often more accurate).

If you're using a string, run it along side the ruler as many times as necessary to get a complete measurement

4

MEASURE AGAIN!

Always measure more than once until you get the same number twice

    Happy

    I was hesitant to purchase a wool hat as opposed to fur felt but I liked the looks and for the price decided to take a chance. I do have one akubra and it’s very good so I thought perhaps, since you advertise Australian wool maybe yours would be good also.

    It arrived in a hat box, as it should, which was a good sign, and upon opening and wearing I find it to be quite good.

    I have about 24 total , western and fedoras and most are fur felt but this one seems to stack up pretty darn good and not over $300 like the fur felts have become. Thanks for the good product

    Really Happy With My First Cowboy Hat!

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Really Happy With My First Cowboy Hat!

    I’m not gonna lie, I was a little nervous about buying my first cowboy hat. I spent quite a bit of time looking around, both in stores and online, trying to find one I really liked. Most of the hats I came across were pretty expensive, too.

    When I found yours, I liked the style and colors right away. I actually went back to look at it a few times before making up my mind. The price was also within my budget, which was a big plus.

    The only thing holding me back was buying a hat online without trying it on first. Even when I went to stores and tried on different hats, I had a hard time finding one that looked and felt right on me. So I wasn’t sure what to expect, but I decided to take a chance and order it.

    Well, I’m glad I did! When I tried it on, I really liked how it looked and felt. It fits nicely, suits my style, and the quality is great, especially for the price.

    For my first cowboy hat, I think I made a really good choice. I’m happy with how everything turned out, and I just wanted to say thank you, guys. It was definitely worth it!

    Third one

    I have the cattlemen in three colors. The hat is attractive, crisp, and handsome. For the price the craftsmanship and material are on target. As for fit, they fit better than some of the expensive hats. I have worn them on windy days and they stayed with me. I recommend it, money well spent.
