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.

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

    Best American flag Cowboy hat

    Great fit, stays on in the wind, colors are perfect, not super bright like the low quality hats, but enough color to make it stylish. Got compliments first time I wore at Ocean City , MD air show and wore it all weekend at Barefoot Country Music Festival in Wildwood , NJ, very comfortable.

    Brilliant hat !! I love it !!!

    I received A LOT of compliment for my hat. The size is spot on, glad I knew mine already!

    The quality is very high, the colors vibrant. Very comfortable to wear , it becomes almost addictive to wear it and handle it around ! It keeps my head fresh and stays on my head even at high speed on the boat. I praise the packaging. The box arrived in very bad shape. The ups deliver, very apologetic, was very nice asking if I wanted to refuse the package. I needed it for 4th of July so I took a chance. The had didn’t have a dent due to an ingenious packaging. I love people who do their job well, and you guys are doing fantastic !

    Unique and comfortable

    I receive several compliments from folks every time I wear this hat. It is a fitting tribute to the flag of the United States and the values it stands for. Next year will be the 250th birthday of our great country and I plan to wear this hat regularly. The quality and workmanship is excellent as well as the comfortable fit.
