We Are American Hat Makers

50 Year Craftsman Guarantee

All our hats come with a lifetime warranty. What this means is that even if you bought a hat 50 years ago and it starts unraveling, we'll fix it or replace it, free of charge.

Family Business

Second generation USA owned and operated. This company started as a family business, and has continued to stay a family business even through today

Been Here Since 1972

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.

Call us anytime! We don’t want to hide behind our website. We’re real people with a deep love and understanding for all of our hats; so any questions you have we’ll be ready to answer them. Need help picking out a hat? We can do that too! Not only can we help you with any questions or concerns you’re having, we can also help you find the perfect hat for your face shape and lifestyle.

    Great ventilation Sun hat

    American Hat Makers really knows the science of designing & manufacturing hats. This sun hat fits perfectly, feels good, looks good, & has great ventilation. I’m very impressed! Chin strap is built-in but I’ve found the hat’s design keeps it well positioned in windy conditions.

    It's a nice hat.

    It's a nice hat. Breaths well. And shades the hot Nevada desert sun well. I wish it had a crown liner to protect my scalp from the rough weave in the crown.

    We're glad to hear that you're enjoying the hat and that it’s helping keep you comfortable while providing shade from the Nevada desert sun.

    We appreciate your note about the crown liner. Some of our breathable hats are designed without a full liner to maximize airflow and keep them lightweight, especially in hot climates. We understand that the natural weave can feel a bit rough for some wearers, and we’ll be sure to pass your feedback along to our design team as we continue improving our products.

    Thank you again for your support and for taking the time to share your experience!

    First time buyer, very impressed.

    I bought the Breeze and its amazing. Light weight breathable material, yet well made and sturdy. As someone wears a size 8 fitted hat, its very difficult to find hats that fit. I am very impressed with this company, the quality of their product, and the number of hats that come in size 8 /3x . I look forward to future purchases.

    Love this hat

    First off, Yes, I did reshape the brim a bit due to an injury to my eye, so that I get better line of sight.... But of all the hats I have, and have had, through the years for working on a farm/ranch, this one is by far my favorite!

    I actually purchased two more as gifts for my brothers.

    The hat is durable, comfortable and easy to wipe clean! And I DO use it for work during the hot, humid summer here in SC.

    My first hat shipped was crushed by the shipper (absolutely no fault of American Hat - UPS very obviously placed a really heavy package on the hat box), but American Hats sent me a new one immediately.

    Customer service is amazing - you call or text, and you get a real human! A really NICE, helpful human!

    This will definitely not be my last hat from American Hat Company!!

    We're glad it's been comfortable, durable, and able to stand up to the hot, humid South Carolina summers.

    We're also grateful for your understanding about the shipping damage. While we're sorry the original hat was crushed in transit, we're happy we could get a replacement out to you quickly. Your kind words about our customer service truly mean the world to our team.

    The fact that you purchased two more hats as gifts for your brothers is one of the highest compliments we could receive. Thank you for your trust and support—we're honored to be your hat maker, and we look forward to serving you again for many years to come!
