Resistol George Strait Ranch Road 6X Black Felt Cowboy Hat

The Ranch Road is part of Resistol's George Strait Collection — 6X fur felt in black, made in Texas.

What 6X means. On a felt hat the X rating describes the quality of the fur blend, not the weave. A 6X is genuine fur felt — rabbit, beaver and wild hare — not wool, which is the line between a hat that holds its shape through weather and breaks in to your head and one that goes soft after a season. Straw hats use the X letter for something different, where it measures how fine and tight the weave is, so the numbers don't compare across materials.

The Ranch Road carries a 4 5/8" cattleman crown with a 4¼" brim, a genuine leather sweatband, satin liner, and a metal pick set into the back of the hat band — the detail that gives this one its signature.
