Thanks, the best features of this type of hat is that it's comfortable year round- not hot in the summer, but warm in winter. Really keeps the sun off my face too. Because of the precise fitting, I could wear it all day long and never be uncomfortable. Barry makes these the old way- by hand, and yes, it takes a while for him to complete each hat, but they're well worth it. I'm very, very lucky to have two- a light colored one and this one. Sooo comfortable, and I can wear them around the barn or just out and about. Lots of people love the style, and not just horse people! -Debbie H.

 

That's my kinda Lady! My hat fits so nicely I forget I'm wearing it until the end of the day when I try to lean back in my recliner chair! -Christine K.

Thank you and Merry Christmas. -Ed and Mary

Just arrived. Wow. Fits like a glove Berry, what craftsmanship in your work. I am about speechless which my wife will say is not like me. I am certain that when she sees it tonight she is going to want me to order a fancy one to go with! Your hat will be worn with pride for many years.  Thank you for making it for me, I do appreciate your work and will feel the buckaroo spirit in my days to come working and playing under this hat. -Thomas A.

-Megan L.

 

If any one is serious about a real quality lid I would advise they contact Montana Rio Buckaroo Hats as these hats are in a class of their own. Your hats are in a class of their own, I have owned many and seen many, but NOTHING as good as this.

-Trevor A.Custom Saddles

I have been wearing my Montana Rio Buckaroo hat since it arrived about a month ago.  Thank you for doing such a great job!  Craftsmanship and fit are great!!!  I am saving up for my next Montana Rio Buckaroo hat.  I need to decide on the color.  I have enclosed a picture of me (wearing my new Montana Rio Buckaroo hat) and my mustang Nacho. Thanks again! -Martín O.

 

You have the best quality and prices of any hat maker in America! There is something special about your hats! I could write pages of stories about what happens when I wear my hat! It's beauty and energy draws opportunities and people to me! I have seriously considered writing a children's book about it! -Saralyn T.

 

Hello, Barry.  Before I made a public post to thank you, I wanted to send a personal thank you. I felt like a little girl picking up my hat from our little local post office, but I wasn't the only one excited. My family and local friends all were in on the event too. We have a few flat hat families in our ranching/equine community and you are a rock star to them! The beautiful buckarette hat you built for me is a work of art I'll treasure for a lifetime. I wish people could understand that a hat is less about fashion than it is about a way of life. You deeply understand the lifestyle your hats represent and that authenticity is what makes you a singular artist. Thank you, my friend. -Mary K.


Thank you for the most beautiful hat I have ever owned.  Your workmanship is perfection!

-Deborah K.

Wow!  You are indeed an artiste! -Paul H.

I got my hat! I've never worn a that fit so well. That's saying a lot since an unruly horse fractured my skull in February. My head has been quite tender as that heals. But the fit of my new hat is amazing! -Louise L.

I hope the weather will be great over the weekend so that we can take some pictures and send them your way. Thank you again!  Everyone is asking me where I got that wonderful hat - also because there are not a lot of people in Germany walking around with Buckarette hats :) Best. -Christin S.

I had many compliments while riding in Colorado. Rick and I had the pleasure of riding with Bruce Sandifer. What a life changing experience that was. We have both ridden all our lives and my husband has been cowboying his whole life but we will never ride the same. As intimidating as embarking into the world of riding in the classical bridle bit style is.....we will never be able to go back to the way we rode before. So exciting!! Berry, my hat fits like a glove.... Thank you so much. -Marcia W.

 

Hat, it's arrived about 10 days ago. Is it beautiful! I am just back from vacation .... on horseback (of course) In these days I put to hard test the hat ... dust, rain, and snow ... is OK! Great great job, my compliments. -Massimo from Italy
