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.

We’re available 9am-5pm PST - give us a call at 831-722-3324.

We dislike returns just as much as the next person, so we’ve vowed to ALWAYS make returns and exchanges painless. If you don’t like your hat, if it doesn’t fit, or you want a different one - we’ll help you. Read our full return and exchange policy here.

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

    I bought it because, I hate wearing caps so I looked for an alternative that works great in the south Florida heat and I was not disappointed. Looks fashionable and is breathable. I even used it at work( im a mover)

    I tried two cheap copies of your hats and I was very disappointed. There is no substitute for quality, I now have a hat to be proud of.

    Love the hat

    I already have two of the leather top hats from American Hat Makers . I was always sad when it gets hot because I can’t wear them. I count down until the weather gets cooler. Now I can wear a top hat all year long with my new mesh top hat.

    Great fit very nice

    Well I must tell you this is number 10 my 10th hat from American hatmakers That's right four of your cowboy hats six top hats Just breathable mesh needs to have another color for us to choose from they really does It's a very nice hat put together well it's nice and light it's cool sometimes it hate can eat that leather up it could be a little uncomfortable but this one here that's not a concern That's why it would be nice to have some extra colors so we can mix and match I got the thing a day or two early It was boxed up perfect like every other hat you send me not a one of them is bent out of shape when it gets to my door not in Indiana they are getting great shape and it goes straight from the box to my head and people compliment these hats no matter what All of them hang on my wall and I can pick and choose each day how to mix and match I'm a fan for life thank you John It's a pleasure crossing your path Great job on this one
