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

    Great hat

    Love the style and shape. A bit large based on my usual experience, but easily remedied. Would buy it again, no reservations.

    Absolutely beautiful hat

    Ordered the hat to be able to wear with both brown or black boots. It was shipped and delivered in one day. Boxed and protected as it should be. Quality made fit and size was spot on and it is one of a kind hat. Looking forward to my next hat.

    Really cool hat ! Unfortunately the small size was just still pretty big for my head so it didn’t work out. I usually wear a small so I was bummed I can’t get this hat in a smaller size.

    Beautiful hat

    I looked at a lot of hats before I settled on this one. I love it. There was an issue with the first hat I received. The brim was buckled in several places. American Hat Makers sent me a brand new one no questions asked. Great hat, great service. Can’t ask for any more than that!

    This is one fine hat.

    I bought this, my first hat, after a lifetime of thinking about getting myself one. I can remember my father wearing on in the late 50's and into the 60's and then again after he retired to keep the sun off his head. I ordered the Fedora for the same reason and because it is a retro look that I want to experience. I was pleasantly at how great the quality of the hat was when I opened the box and tried it on. I love it.

    We’re honored your first hat brings back those memories of your father and that the Fedora gave you both the sun protection and the retro style you were looking for. It’s great to hear the quality exceeded your expectations right out of the box. Enjoy wearing it!

    That’s wonderful to hear—thank you for sharing!

    We’re so glad the Anniversary gift was a hit and that he’s loving the Wonder Hat. Even better that it’s bringing out that “handsome” factor—that’s always a win.

    We really appreciate the kind words about the quality too. Hope it becomes one of his favorites for a long time!
