We can just see that the Stetson catalog describes 6x as just "fur felt" and 10x as "beaver fur felt" which we can take to mean that 6x contains no beaver and 10x contains some beaver. Honestly once you get near the 10x price point, you start to get better off with a custom hat.
Made from 100% Beaver Fur, this is the best hat you can buy today, simple as that. This hat is for the person who really punishes a hat daily and expects it to hold up under the worst conditions; or those who know hats and simply expect the highest quality.
The range is extensive, from 2X beaver to XXX and even 1000X. But what does the X mean? Let's start with a brief history. As far back as the 1930s, the X rating system applied to felt cowboy hats. Back then, the X indicated the amount of beaver fur felt content in a hat.
Outside of a few rain hats most hats are water repellent, NOT waterproof. A light rain shower, drizzle, even a little snow will not destroy most felt hats. Heavy rain and thunderstorms are not good for felt hats. Straw hats (made of natural fibers) should NEVER be worn in the rain.
Hats made of material rated below 5X generally contained a poorer grade of fur and little or no beaver fur. A 10X hat was made of 100% beaver fur. The X-factor was also a fairly reliable price guide, with a 3X hat costing $30 and a 4X hat costing $40 and a 5X hat costing $50 and so on.
The System X is a rating system that has been created to try to assess the quality of all hats around the world. On some hats, you will see on the inside headband an inscription indicating the number of Xs (20X for example). The more there are Xs, the more the hat is of quality.
A 100X hat is a beaver blend and is great as a starter hat. A 200X hat is 100% pure beaver and great as a beautiful dress hat or an amazing ranch hat that will stand up to the elements and the wear of ranch life.
The combination of the heat and perspiration will shrink the sweatband. To put on or remove your hat, hold the brim in front and back, handle the crown as little as possible. Your hat will last a lifetime while following these important instructions.
Stetson made the hat out of fine fur from beaver, rabbit and other small animals to withstand the elements. Thanks to its durability, the “Boss of the Plains” was ideal for the demands of the working Westerner and became incredibly popular.
The main difference between the Skyline 6X and the 4X version lies in the quality of the fur felt used. The 6X version uses a superior grade of fur felt, making it more durable and providing a smoother finish. This higher grade fur felt also gives the 6X version a slightly higher price point than the 4X version.
The X-factor was originally determined by the density and shape of the material and ranged in grade from a low of 1X to a high of 10X. Hats made of material rated below 5X generally contained a poorer grade of fur and little or no beaver fur. A 10X hat was made of 100% beaver fur.
A: 4X means the quality of the felt that is used. In this case, the Buffalo felt is labeled as 4x which would be flimsier and less quality than a hat that has 10x quality fur. The more x's you have, the better quality fur that was used.
