- This is a basic review of the Stetson Apache. Made of Buffalo fur this hat can withstand all four seasons and looks great through the year.
Ill be using this hat to fight the sun while out doors and will be looking forward to using the hat during some serious lever action shooting events.
If you have any positive input leave it in the comments. Stupid comments won't even be seen so don't bother :-).
Never never lay your hat down on the brim. Always lay it upside down on the crown. 👍

At first, Stetson used the x to describe the cost / price of a hat. For example 2x or xx meant twice the price of a 1x hat. Therefore, you should be able to figure out what a 3x means. But that was back in the 1800s and possibly early 1900s. Since then, x values vary with manufacturer and not all x values are equal or basically there is no standard as to what constitutes a 3x or 5x or even a 100x as each hat manufacture has their secret sauce recipe locked away in a safe. Today, I do believe the x value signifies quality (secret sauce) more than anything else. 3x probably means 3%, or 30% or something like that of buffalo fur. I don't think it's means 100% buffalo. Anyhow, I have the Apache. Purchased it back in Dec 2016. Really enjoy it. You should do some research on western hats. You'd be surprised to find out that Stetson was inspired by the Mexican hats worn by the VAQUEROS!
The ribbon is to commemorate the hatters who were poisoned in the 1800s with the chemicals used to make hats. That’s where the phrase mad as a hatter came from. I guess you can use it to find the back too.
Have bought myself one of these great hats having seen your review. Love the way it looks.
STETSON...👍USA...😊😗👋👍
I have a Hat from Milano, it's made in the USA, and it's called Platinum Governor. It's no where to be found and it cost me around $1k. It's gorgeous though. Very rare piece. Your hat looks great!
Amazing piece of american culture, cheers
