Felt Cowboy Hats

Felt "cowboy" hats are also for cowgirls. The vast majority of cowboy hats (felt or straw) are suitable for either a man or a woman. A cowboy or cowgirl hat takes on its own personality and "look" when the new wearer customizes its shape, style, and accessories like a hatband. 

What Is A Felt Cowboy Hat Made Of?

We know that a felt cowboy hat is made of felt, but what exactly is felt? Felt is a dense collection of short, single animal fibers pressed together with hot water and steam so that they interlock. Felt is a fabric but it is much stronger than woven fabrics because with felt each individual fiber is interlocked with other fibers in several different directions. Woven fabrics, on the other hand, are made from fibers that are first twisted into threads. When the threads are woven together the result is a fabric that can be torn apart in a straight line. Felt does not have this inherent weakness.

Felt makes a superior fabric for a cowboy hat because it is light, smooth, much harder to tear or damage than other fabrics, and is naturally water resistant.
