Gambler Crease Hats

Gambler crease hats have a slightly wider brim when compared to other cowboy hats, which offers more sun protection. In addition, they have a noticeably lower crown with a circular shape. When it comes to the hat's crease, it will either have no creases or will have a circular crease running around the perimeter of the crown.

The name of the hat comes from its connection to gambling. Gamblers found that the wide brim of the hat gave them an advantage in card games. It hid their eyes from their opponents and prevented others from gauging their reactions.

While this history gave the hat its name, the hat was actually originally popularized by Mexican cowboys. The hat's wide brim offered sun protection that was viewed as being incredibly helpful. In the end, the hat's practicality led to its popularity.

Nowadays, the gambler crease hat adds a unique touch to both men's and women's outfits. It can be made in either straw or felt and in a variety of colors. If you're looking for a hat that can hide your eyes or that offers unparalleled sun protection, this may be the choice for you.  sample sample2
