Men's Stetson Fashion Brand

A legendary American company. Stetson sells hats, boots, Western apparel, eyewear, and fragrance. At Stetson, they believe deeply in the values of the American west: INDIVIDUALITY, INTEGRITY, and LASTING STYLE. Stetson creates products to provide an authentic American experience. The Stetson profile opens with the company's own creed, capitals and all, and files the brand by its values before its products - though the products, when they come, span the whole Western wardrobe: hats first, then boots, apparel, eyewear and fragrance. On this page you will find information regarding men's clothing with the Stetson brand.

In 1865, John B. Stetson fashioned the hat that would become the symbol of American independence, individuality, integrity, and strength. Today everything that carries the Stetson brand, from authentic Westernwear to rugged Actionwear to contemporary Street wear, stays true to these American values: make things right and the best they can be. A straight line runs from one 1865 hat to three modern ranges - Westernwear, Actionwear and Street wear - and the quality maxim is quoted as the company states it. This company and brand is rich in history; they have been in business for over 150 years.

The Cowboy Hat Itself

Founded in 1865, Stetson was born from the spirit of the West and grew to become an American icon. John B. Stetson's friendly gesture towards a wayward traveler on the new frontier gave birth to what is now known, the world over, as the "cowboy hat". A cowboy hat is a high-crowned, wide-brimmed hat best known as the defining piece of attire for the North American cowboy, influenced by 19th century Mexican culture, and worn today by many people - particularly ranch workers in the western and southern United States, western Canada and northern Mexico, country-western and ranchero singers, and participants in the North American rodeo circuit.

The shape of a cowboy hat's crown and brim are often modified by the wearer for fashion and to protect against weather. Today's cowboy hat has remained basically unchanged in construction and design since the first one was created in 1865 by J.B. Stetson. That unchanged-design claim is the profile's closing argument for the brand's values: individuality expressed by reshaping brim and crown, on a construction that has not needed changing in over a century and a half. In addition to hats, this long-admired brand sells denim, shirts, boots, and more - the men's clothing end of the Stetson range, with a route to its Names-section company profile linked from this page and its official site in References.
