Since 1927, Resistol has proudly crafted fur felt cowboy hats in America, maintaining a legacy of quality and craftsmanship. From start to finish, every Resistol hat is a testament to meticulous attention to detail, tradition and premium materials.

• Made in America: Every Resistol fur felt cowboy hat begins just 100 miles from the company’s headquarters in Longview, Texas, and completes its journey in Garland, Texas. With over 200 steps and seven days of craftsmanship, each hat is created with care and precision.
• In-House Manufacturing: Resistol controls every step of the hat-making process, from sourcing premium fur to crafting the final product. This ensures unmatched quality, consistency, and attention to detail.

Resistol sets the standard with its unique X rating system—a quality scale developed and maintained entirely in-house. Unlike other brands, the X system isn’t regulated across the industry, so a 100X Resistol hat may be equivalent to a 1000X hat from another brand.

For felt cowboy hats, the X rating reflects the percentage and quality of fur in the hat. Higher X ratings typically indicate finer fur and increased durability.

For straw cowboy hats, a tighter weave and finer straw reed indicate a higher X rating, reflecting the hat’s craftsmanship and overall quality. The finer the materials and construction, the higher the X designation, ensuring a superior finished product.

Getting the right fit is essential for comfort and style. Here’s how to find your perfect size:

1. Measure Your Head: Use a cloth measuring tape to measure the circumference of your head where the hat will sit.

2. Find Your Size: Match your measurement in inches to the Resistol size chart. If you’re between sizes, size up; a slightly larger hat can be padded for a snug fit.

A cowboy hat is more than just a piece of clothing—it’s a reflection of your personality. Resistol offers a variety of profiles to suit different tastes:

• The 41 Profile: Straight from the Westerns, inspired by none other than Gus McCrae himself.

• The 63 Profile: Old-school cowboy cool, reminiscent of the '70s era.

• The 73 Profile: A timeless classic, featuring the iconic cattleman’s crown.

• The 83 Profile: A hat modeled after Cody Johnson’s signature style.

• The 87 Profile: A design fit for the King of Country, George Strait.

Each profile offers a unique way to express your individual style.

Choosing the right Resistol cowboy hat comes down to your personal style, intended use, and budget.

For occasional wear, a hat with a lower X rating provides an affordable yet stylish option without compromising quality. If you plan to wear your hat daily or for special occasions, investing in a higher X rating ensures greater durability and craftsmanship, offering better performance and a more polished appearance.

Whether you’re looking for the ultimate in luxury with the Resistol Pure, or a timeless classic like the Resistol 20X Black Gold, Resistol has something for everyone.

A Resistol hat is more than a purchase—it’s an investment in quality, tradition, and personal expression. With meticulous craftsmanship, premium materials, and iconic designs, a Resistol hat is made to last a lifetime while showcasing your unique style.
