Backcountry Gearhead Recommendation"The Laredo Weather Guard is the perfect mix of form and function. It has that traditional Western look, but the Weather Guard coating means I don’t have to baby it if the forecast turns. It’s durable, fits great with the inner strap, and holds up for ranch work or weekends." With timeless Western styling and a weather-ready build, the Brixton Laredo Weather Guard Cowboy Hat is made for wide-open days in sun, wind, or unexpected rain. Crafted from 100% wool felt and shaped with a classic cattleman crown and side roll brim, it’s finished with a double-wrapped leather band and metal plaque for a polished edge. What sets this version apart is its Weather Guard coating—a water-repellent dip that adds practical durability for wet or unpredictable conditions. Inside, a moisture-wicking sweatband keeps things comfortable and fresh. Whether you’re working outside or just channeling frontier flair, the Laredo is built to handle it all.
