Stetson Rancher 6X White Felt Cowboy Hat

The Rancher is a 6X fur felt western hat from Stetson in white, made in the U.S.A.

What 6X means. On a felt hat the X rating describes the quality of the fur blend rather than the weave. A 6X is a 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.

This edition carries a 4-inch brim, the standard western cut, with a regular oval fit.
