StetsonMen's Bozeman Outdoor Hat

Hate came well packed with a cardboard shell around it with good protection and shipping was very fast. It does run true to size or just a tiny bit snug (for me) but has some give with the material. It also has a softer feel with the wool with nice spring back if rolled. It wears a bit warm which is nice for cold fall and winter days but might be a bit much for warmer regions. The water resistance works good and should hold up through the wet season. I wasn’t sure if I would like the color in person but ended up being very pleased. I chose this hat because I didn’t want a full fledged cowboy hat and something more versatile for outdoor work and general activity. There are lots of options in an outdoor style hat but if this is a style you decide on you won’t be disappointed - very comfortable, versatility, and the quality is great! I also get a lot of compliments which is always nice.

Very nice hat, good value and the size is correct. It’s a Stetson, so it looks great and perfect for cooler weather.

I saw many good reviews and some unhappy reviews so I was a bit nervous to shell out $120 for a hat as I’ve never purchased a quality felt hat before.The reasons why I’m thrilled with this hat are:1. The seller packed the hat upside-down in their own box. The inside had a cutout for the crown to poke through the support layer. This was then padded with foam to prevent creases or markings. (Some people said the hat arrived in a bag??)2. The felt didn’t have any defects as one person described: “pimples” and no moth damage as another had described.3. The hat fits me like it was made for me!! I’ve tried mediums in other brands but this is the only one that fits true to the size chart. My head measures about 22.25” or so just above the ears. In baseball caps I wear size 7 1/8 I believe.4. The felt is heavy (weight wise) and feels very premium and high quality.5. The sweat band is this soft, vented athletic fabric and I like that it helps hold the hat in place.6. The style is slightly western and slightly classic and I think it is absolutely flattering for all occasions.I will see how it holds up in the weather, but all of the reviews that mentioned that were satisfied with it’s performance.Also felt loves to pick up lint and pet hair, so keep that in mind, especially if you purchase it in black or another dark color.

There’s one slight dent in part of the hat but it’s not very noticeable, as a less expensive Stetson I’m alright with that kind of thing especially since it’s a more outdoor/crushable design meant to take some wear and not be super formal. I’ve yet to test the water resistance too much but I wear it while my hair is still drying sometimes and there’s been no issue. I did some crushing tests when I first got it and it completely is in shape, sometimes if the crown gets crushed in too much near the pinch area you’ll need to reach in and pop it back into shape real quick but with no difficulty- not sure how it holds up being crushed for extended periods of time or many times over. It fits pretty well, only will fall off if you tilt pretty far angles. If you need help figuring your size the Stetson website has a nice chart that I used. It feels very soft and comfortable overall, the material and form has only grown on me since getting it, which I’m very glad for since I was hesitant to buy a hat at this price. I’ll definitely buy a Stetson again.

I'm partial to pinch front hats and to Stetsons...this meets my unofficial criteria.Nice color (wish they'd make a pinchfront crushable in silverbelly)My hat size is 7 1/8 and this fit fine in medium and wold have worked at 7 1/4 just fine,

Well-made.

I absolutely like this hat. Mushroom color is very versatile. The hat looks terrific…..but only after about 30 minutes of steam and a good bit of shaping. The hat was shipped in a huge box. Inside, flattened and mashed in a clear bag was the hat…..see pics. The crown of the hat was mashed down and the brim was “waded” up to fit the bag. I saw reviews after this purchase that there are more responsible shippers which placed the hat in a more appropriate shipping container.The hat is nice and the hat fits great, I would just recommend another shipper other than RDS if I have anything to suggest.

The hat seems like a legitimate Stetson, although the typical Stetson box was not included (which does add to the suspicion).
