Be American Made

Celebrating American-made products and those that produce them

Stetson

Stetson is synonymous with the American icon Cowboy Hat. Since its founding in 1865 by John B. Stetson, Stetson has been a global leader in headwear. The brand is so iconic that many folks simply refer to cowboy hats as ‘Stetsons.’ Quality and tradition are at the forefront of how Stetson produces hats: For over 150 years, Stetson has created quality products that are built to last and have deep roots in the American tradition. We have a strong appreciation for objects that are made well and products that get better with age. We still craft our products using much of the same techniques as John B. did so many years ago – with an eye towards meeting the needs of the future generations of frontiersmen, pioneers, industrialists and trailblazers.
