Larry Mahan Felt Hat Guide
Larry Mahan felt hats are designed for shoppers who want a classic western silhouette with multiple quality levels, colors and price points to choose from. La Herradura currently carries Larry Mahan felt hats ranging from 6X through 1000X, giving shoppers options from everyday western wear to high-end statement hats.
The easiest way to choose one is to compare the X rating, color, intended use and how formal you want the finished outfit to feel.

Within La Herradura’s current Larry Mahan collection, you will find:
- 6X
