HatCountry Celebrates 50+ Years of Western Tradition with a New Era of Online Shopping Experience

HatCountry, a leader in Western wear, marks over five decades of tradition with an expanded digital presence, offering unparalleled cowboy hats, boots, and accessories.

-- A Legacy Built on Western Tradition

Founded in 1973, HatCountry has been a pillar of the Western wear community, offering premium cowboy hats, boots, and accessories that reflect both timeless craftsmanship and modern design. What began as a humble cowboy hat stand in Englishtown, New Jersey, has evolved into a global retailer known for its broad selection of authentic Western products.


For over five decades, HatCountry has been more than a business—it’s a legacy rooted in the rich history of Western culture. Whether serving cowboys, cowgirls, or those who embrace the Western lifestyle, HatCountry has continually stayed ahead of the trends while maintaining its commitment to quality and heritage.

A Commitment to Quality and Service

At HatCountry, customer service is just as important as the products themselves. The company is known for its exceptional customer satisfaction, boasting a stellar 4.9-star rating, thanks to its personalized service and hassle-free returns policy. Offering fast shipping, including free shipping on orders over $99, the company ensures that customers receive not only the best products but also a seamless shopping experience.

Founder Michael Vandenstockt recalls the journey:

“HatCountry began as a simple dream—sharing my family’s passion for Western culture with the world. We started small, but our core belief hasn’t changed: deliver the very best to our customers, every single time.”

Expanding Horizons in the Digital Age

In the late '90s, as the internet age arrived, HatCountry boldly stepped into the digital marketplace. The company became one of the first online retailers specializing in cowboy hats and boots in 2002, leading the way in Western wear e-commerce. Today, HatCountry’s online store serves customers from across the globe, offering an unmatched variety of cowboy hats, boots, belts, apparel, and more from trusted brands such as Stetson, Resistol, and Ariat.

“We’re proud to see more people embracing the spirit of Western wear,” Vandenstockt says. “Western wear has always been about freedom and individuality. We’ll continue to lead the charge in bringing modern style together with timeless tradition.”

A Wide Array of Western Wear and Accessories

While cowboy hats are still at the core of its offerings, HatCountry has expanded its collection to meet the diverse needs of Western enthusiasts. In addition to the wide range of cowboy hats, the retailer provides cowboy boots, cowgirl boots, fedoras, outback hats, sun hats, and accessories suitable for both urban and outdoor lifestyles.

“We’re family-founded, deeply rooted in the culture, and dedicated to customer satisfaction,” says Vandenstockt. “From first-time hat buyers to seasoned ranch hands, we strive to make everyone feel right at home—digital doors wide open.”

Customer-Centric Innovations

What sets HatCountry apart from the competition is not only its history but also its dedication to providing a unique and tailored shopping experience. HatCountry's continued growth in the digital realm emphasizes the company’s ability to blend heritage with cutting-edge technology. The brand’s commitment to offering exceptional customer service, paired with its wide selection, makes it a top choice for those looking for authentic Western wear.

A Vision for the Future

HatCountry continues to innovate while staying true to its Western roots. As the company enters its next chapter, Vandenstockt looks forward to further expanding the brand’s online presence, ensuring that HatCountry remains the destination for customers seeking high-quality cowboy hats, boots, and Western apparel.

“As we look to the future, our commitment to quality, authenticity, and unparalleled customer service will remain unwavering,” Vandenstockt says. “HatCountry is here to stay, leading the Western wear industry with a spirit of adventure and an enduring love for the Western lifestyle.”
