Excellent experience at The Best Hat Store! I went in on a busy Saturday and the experience was…read moregreat. The team was short-staffed, but they were friendly and professional the whole time. The selection is second to none. They will shape it specifically to your head right there and in no time. This alone adds to the value of the experience. They're experts! I won't go anywhere else. The Best Hat Store has won my business!

Recently purchased an Evergreen colored felt hat in 10x quality just after start of felt season…read more Got it shaped with a classic Cattlemen crown along with a JB brim. Just like the straw I got, I have been admiring the handywork of the hat shapers there. I took a risk by ordering an unconventional color but the green looks great in different lighting and compliments just about every shirt I wear with it. Depending on the lighting it looks between gray, black, and green. A versatile and good looking hat that I plan on keeping for a while. American Hats for whatever reason tend to run small in felts, so order the next size up that you would wear with the straw. These hats ain't cheap so be prepared to drop quite a bit of money. Consider it an investment well worth the price.

What a shock it was to discover that this seemingly abandoned, Depression-era storefront conceals…read moreone of the most venerable and storied businesses in Forth Worth. When I walked in, it struck me as the hollywood-version of a frontier town hatter's workshop, intended as a movie set for an old western moving picture show. Wooden head forms sat like statues on rows of shelves. Ancient presses and tools were left in disarray, as though the workman had just walked away a century ago. Only one of three ceiling fans creaked lazily to stir warm air inside the cavernous chamber. It was a snapshot of a moment in time, and I was enchanted. No one greeted me until I had poked around for a minute. Then, a kindly-looking young gentleman appeared from a doorway and asked if he could help. I was welcome to browse and ask questions. The great-grandson of the original owner returned to his bench in the rear workroom and left me to nose around the place. Time-travel is possible, as Peters' Hat Shop proves: all of the original manual equipment, wooden forms, tools, and materials from nearly 99 years ago are not only preserved here, but still used daily to create hand-crafted headwear for discerning gents. You can see my photos. I would have gladly paid for a museum tour here, but it continues its life as a working hat shop. The selection of off-the-rack styles and range of sizes is sure to suit most men, with straw fedoras, bowlers, sun hats, and more. Peters' house-made specialty is the classic cowboy hat, but they can make (or renovate) any style you wish. Custom orders are currently backed up six months out, according to the owner, but quality is surely worth the wait. Check out Peters' history at its website: http://www.pbhats.com What a treat it was to stumble on this place! Next time I'm in Fort Worth, I'll be back for another hat shop experience, and maybe put in my order for a John Wayne or Tom Mix.

Amazing Experience! A girl named Kayla was such a huge help and completely turned around the…read morenegative experience I just had at their other store a couple doors down. I visited their main Fleastyle store in the stockyards, paid for an appointment, and struggled to design a hat. They handed me a tray and then silently walked away without walking me through the process. It seemed like they were too busy doing other things to even make a connection with me. I wish it had been more personal and engaging! I didn't even end up making a hat and I got directed to go down to Wide Brim , as there were predesigned hats there. I thought about not even going to see the other hats because I did not want to experience the so called 'customer service' they provided. My husband talked me into going down to the other store just to see what they had and I am so glad I did. After walking in I started trying on the hats and started to get a bit frustrated not being able to find one that fit my head and Kayla quickly stepped over and explained exactly how they worked. After talking to her and realizing she had only been working there about a month or so we were shocked at how incredible she treated us and how much she knew about the hats! With her help I actually found a gorgeous hat that was perfect and after buying a hat box she even took the time to close the store and run to storage to get me one! Overall she turned the entire hat search into a blessing!

The custom hat was an experience everyone should have at least once. James formed the perfect hat for me and there was so much more involved than I realized with sizing. They started off the experience with a glass of Prosecco and within 15 minutes I was sitting down for the fitting. The entire sitting was about 30 minutes. Jenna and James both were forming hats and are obviously very experienced at their craft. I highly recommend the store. Verdict: I've already returned twice, so I'm going to say this is fantastic!

This shop features an…read moreincredibly wide selection of leather goods such as belts and boots, western clothing, jewelry, and home decor. Everything is beautifully crafted. From what I have seen, you do get some bang for your buck in terms of quality. The leather is very high quality and artisanal - well worth the controversially high price point. Here is one of the only places I have been able to find that makes custom name belts. If you would like a service like that, expect the price to start in the high $300s, with each letter being an additional $10. Fully custom belts can be delivered anywhere in the country in about 60 days. I would also love to acknowledge how considerate the girls working the register were! On a hot summer day as my dad was working on his custom belt order, one of the sweet girls noticed he was sweating and brought us all cold waters. Such a lovely gesture! I would definitely recommend stopping by for your luxury western needs when in the Stockyard area!

Because of his patience and kindness we will be back for a custom pair even though I don't really wear western wear. A girl can never have too many shoes. Right?

Fincher's at the Stock Show where they had a booth selling Justin Boots -- and the experience was outstanding. Earlier that day, we visited several other booths and honestly felt disappointed. There was very little assistance, and most places seemed overpriced and uninterested in helping customers. Then we wandered into C.B. Fincher's booth and were greeted by J. Morton -- and everything changed. J. helped fit our twin boys and was incredibly patient with them as they tried to figure out what they wanted. He had them try on multiple boots in various sizes and took the time to teach them what to look for in the "perfect fit." He didn't rush them or push a sale. Instead, he focused on making sure they understood the fit and felt confident in their choice. He also made sure we, as parents, were completely comfortable and happy with their selections. The boots worked out great, the price was very fair, and the quality is excellent. What really stood out wasn't just the product -- it was the service. J. Morton was a true salesman in the best sense of the word. It was obvious that he cared more about making us feel welcome and taken care of than simply making a sale. Great prices. Great quality boots. But the real star of this western store is the people. Real quality products and real quality people. We'll absolutely be back. If you'd like, I can also shorten this into a more punchy Google-style review version.

I wanted to buy a pair of cowboy boots and Cavender's was the first place I stopped at. Compared to places like Lucchese's, this place has boots that are on the affordable side. The first pair of boots that I tried on were the ones I ended up purchasing at the end of the day. I opted for suede instead of leather, since I was looking at them for more of a fashion statement. What I love about my boots is that it doesn't really look like cowboy boots and I could wear them with anything. Jimena was the employee who had kept them on reserve for me while I perused the other boot stores to see what else was out there before making a commitment. I am so happy with my purchase and I highly recommend coming here.
