HOW TO DETERMINE YOUR HAT SIZE

BULLOCKS CUSTOM HATS

Discover the art of a truly personalized Bullock Western Wear custom hat, handcrafted the old-fashioned way in Wyoming. Unlike off-the-shelf hats, each piece is carefully fitted to the exact size and shape of your head using a conformateur*, ensuring a flawless, comfortable fit that complements your style. To create your perfect hat, we invite you to visit the store for a consultation, where we’ll guide you through material, style, and shape options. Pricing is discussed during your in-store consultation, allowing you to explore your choices with expert guidance and personal attention. To make an appointment you can call the store at (970) 945-9175, email us using the button below, or drop by in person—we’d love to assist you!

MAKE AN APPT

Conformateur* is a French device used to measure the exact shape and size of a person's head for creating a custom-fitted hat. It uses adjustable pins, which correspond to the head's shape, and then transferred to a punched card or a smaller model.
