From selling handmade leather belts and wallets out the back of his Chevy Station Wagon to becoming one of the top businesses for handmade leather hats.
Main Services:
It’s safe to say Gary Watrous (our founder) doesn’t mess around. He’s been perfecting his expertise for 50 years and with the help of his son Garth, his daughter-in-law Hannah and several other family members who have been integrated into the business, they have been able to take American Hat Makers to new heights. Today, Garth has assumed command and is shaping a new direction for the hat company as we know it. In 2017, Garth was elected president of the Headwear Association and has used this position to impact the worldwide hat industry.
Today the company has expanded from just being a production company to sourcing the best hats from around the world which has given more options and choices. From Mens and Womens Cowboy hats to some of the best Straw hats and Sun Hats in the industry.
Also known as Monterey Bay Hats, Head’N Home, American Hat Company, and American Hats, the American Hat Makers continue to bring the most durable, high-quality, handmade hats to the market. And when we say there’s a hat for any occasion, we mean it.
