Hat bands for Cowboy Hats – freshen the look of your favorite old hat with a new leather hat band from The Last Best West.

If your old hat has a grosgrain ribbon and bow, our hatbands for cowboy hats are designed to just slide over-top. This gives you a second unique look to your hat, just like the old-time cowboys used to do.  It easily slides off, allowing for use on other hats.

The Rim Fire Leather Hat band is shown our our Frontera Movie hat.

To put on your new custom hatband, put your hat on and while looking in the mirror. Slide your new Last Best West Hat Band over and down the crown, center the design, then reach behind the hat and pull the slider tight. Now you have two different looks for the same hat, and a dang fine fit every time.

History of Hat Bands

In the middle ages when men went off to war it was customary to take a feather from their loved one. Because men were mostly right-handed, a man would typically lead with their right side when fighting with a sword. Now where the hell to put the feather? At first they would stick the feather in the band of their hat on the right. But soldiers quickly learned it could affect their seeing, so the cavaliers adapted and the feather was moved to the left side of the crown, where it remains today.
