## Description

American Hat Makers, a family-owned and operated brand, has been handcrafting high-quality hats for over 50 years. Founded by Gary Watrous in the 1970s, the brand started with handmade leather goods sold out of the back of a Chevy station wagon. Today, American Hat Makers is one of the largest hat manufacturers worldwide. Gary's passion for leatherwork and hat making led him to create his own line of leather hats, and his love for this craft quickly became his sole artistic focus. With the support and advice of talented hat professionals and a creative and supportive family, Gary has built a team at American Hat Makers that feels like family. His wife Merry Lee contributes to design and development, while his son Garth, now the owner of the company, brings his business acumen to cultivate success. American Hat Makers offers a unique and exceptional line of hats, made with deliberate thought and attention to detail. From cowboy hats to fedoras, their selection showcases a variety of styles and materials, such as felt, leather, and straw. With a commitment to customer satisfaction, American Hat Makers offers a full refund on returns within 30 days and ships their products worldwide. Join the American Hat Makers family and experience the passion and tradition that unite in every hat they create.
