This is one of the premier hat making companies and the article should be given an opportunity to be expanded. ( RossF18 04:22, 8 April 2007 (UTC))
What we have here is a master Hatter who goes prospecting in the wild west. Like Levi Strauss he made a garment out of tent material, in this case a hat. We do not know the details on the hat. He prospected for gold for a year. After selling that hat. He opened a hat shop in Philadelphia in 1865. See: [1]
The model that won the west and established a legend, later to be called a cowboy hat, looked pretty much like a flying saucer. Flat brimmed, with a straight sided rounded crown and a simple band.
These hats were sold to just about everyone from over 2800 locations all around the world. When people returned East for whatever reason. If they wanted to look the part of a successful Westerner they came home in a Stetson. This was a visual image of the mystery of the west.
All other high crowned, wide brimmed, western hats, even those made today, owe their essence to J. B. Stetson.

That whole web site is suspect, anything from madehow.com/Volume-3/Stetson-Hat [2] should be throw out. What are they selling?
What molded brim on a Boss?
Are there any references to back up this phony baloney attempt at a web page at madehow.com/Volume-3/Stetson-Hat?
They must be talking about another product from another company. Maybe a fantasy from another planet. If all that can be done is copy from that site to this one, we should shut this whole page down completely.
The “ Boss of the plains” Stetson hat, was the dominant cowboy hat during the period from 1865 - 1900, when cowboy hats earned a place in history. Hats became less necessity and more ornamentation around the turn of the century. Wild West shows, automobiles, airplanes, telephones and motion pictures, pushed the plain old flat brimmed cowboy hat out of the way for new fashions.
The Boss of the plains was not continuously made like it is implied here. It not only is not made now by the John B. Stetson Company but the company itself was out of the hat business in 1971. [1] A custom hatter can make you one for about the price of an ounce of gold. But the John B. Stetson Company does not still produce the original cowboy hat.

I am a current resident of St. Joseph and would like to point out that the actual factory closed in 2004 and currently operates purely as a factory outlet store, the article implies hats are still being manufactured here.
Article from the period about the factory's closure: https://www.semissourian.com/story/135473.html
I'm not well versed in the usage of wikipedia so I decided to put this on the talk page instead. Hope this clarification helps develop a more accurate version of the article.

There are no information as in other enterprice lemmas about actual CEO, Chairman and Income. The hats of Stetson are in much worldwide countries selling. That could also be written, not only in the USA. There are not only cowboy hats produced by this inc. also other types of hat! The article is weidly not complete, even fare away of that! -- 178.197.225.206 ( talk) 10:47, 1 December 2018 (UTC)
Who is the acutal member of the Stetson family that is leading the company now? -- 178.197.225.206 ( talk) 10:48, 1 December 2018 (UTC)
Hi, I'm Rachel. I was part of a History on the Web course at West Chester University during Fall 2018. As I was assigned to clean up this article, I did my best to make some changes for the sake of clarity and conciseness. Please review the changes I made and let me know how I can improve. Thank you!

The first paragraph of the article induces false information. It says "Stetson hats are now being manufactured in Garland, Texas, by Hatco, Inc., who also produce Resistol and Charlie 1 Horse hats." However, as can be seen by the products labels, at least in Europe, where it is mandatory to mention where products are made, most of Stetson hats and caps are made in China, and some in Czechia, as well as possibly other countries. Professional traders in hats met acknowledge that quality of current Stetson products are high, but social and environmental conditions of production are unknown. Stetson.eu Web site doesn't provide any information on location of its factories or social and environmental responsibility of the company.
