Details like oiled leather on the palms, thumbs and underside of the gauntlets, coupled with practical and durable furs like beaver, otter, coyote and wolf are predominately used to extend the life of your gear. The Ranch Hats are styled after the old cadet hats to provide a soft and comfortable brim to shield your eyes from the sun and a fur lined ear flap to keep the wind and cold off your ears and neck.
