Instructions
1
Decide what type of cowboy hat you want. There's a wide variety of styles: wide brimmed cowboy hats, straw cowboy hats, gambler's hats, flocked cowboy hats, straw cowboy hats with rolled brims, and more.
2
Measure your head for the proper size. Use a soft tape measure. Measure around your hair 1/2-inch above your eyebrows and just above your ears. You may need to have someone else do this for you.
3
Determine your head shape, which is, according to The Last Best West, either "Long Oval, Round Oval, or Regular Oval."
4
Choose where you wish to shop, such as a hat store.
5
Buy used hats through the classifieds or online.
6
Go to online retailers like Annie's Costumes, or for the real deal, the Western Shop.
7
Stand out from the crowd, and have your hat custom-made by The Last Best West.
