Stetson Mezcal 6X Black Felt Cowboy Hat

The Mezcal is a 6X fur felt western hat from Stetson in black, handmade 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 — 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.

Profile 0140: a 5" tall cattleman crown with a 4" heavy curved brim — a heritage western profile that stands tall in the saddle. Finished with a matching self-felt hat band and an engraved three-piece silver-tone buckle, a handsewn genuine leather sweatband and a full satin liner. Every Mezcal passes through more than 100 sets of hands at the Texas factory.
