Few hat styles are as suited to summer days as the straw hat, created with a fine-weaved mesh density that allows for consistent airflow that keeps the wearer’s head cool. The new Filson X Stetson Straw Baler Hat takes this functional foundation and elevates it with subtle details that reflect the effortless style of the collaborating brands.

Filson’s legacy as one of the leading fashion brands for outdoor pursuits makes it the ideal choice for a partnership with Stetson, the iconic hatmakers dating back to 1865. The Filson X Stetson Straw Baler Hat echoes this century-long history of manufacturing, from the high-quality woven construction to the custom badge mounted on the leather headband.

The Filson X Stetson Straw Baler Hat is primarily made from rigid Shantung straw, ensuring high-performance, durability, and greater water resistance compared to natural straw. There’s also a roomy 3-inch brim for keeping the sun and rain out of your eyes while outdoors.

Additional comfort when wearing the Filson X Stetson Straw Baler Hat comes through the moisture-wicking Dri-Lex sweatband, elevated further with the ventilating eyelets in the hat’s crown. The crown’s shape, resembling Filson’s classic Packer Hat, is designed with ergonomic precision to sit snugly and securely on the wearer’s head.

Released as a limited-edition collaboration that evokes the rich heritage of the American journey with contemporary design principles, the Filson X Stetson Straw Baler Hat is a welcome collaboration from iconic outfitters.
