* There are several theories as to why the Stetson became known as the 'ten-gallon hat'. The Stetson company admits their largest product can only hold, at most, 3 quarts of liquid, if one were to try. Even still, the name may have been adopted due to the original Stetson's high quality and tightly-woven felt, making it watertight enough to hold water, albeit briefly. The problem with this theory, however, is that any fabric container used to hold water will eventually unravel and be destroyed, no matter how well-made it is. Another theory is that the term "ten gallon" is possibly a corruption of the Spanish term "galón", or galloon, a type of narrow braided trimming around the crown, possibly a style adapted by the vaqueros. In essence, the term 'ten-gallon' did not originally refer to the holding capacity of the hat, but to the width of a Mexican sombrero hatband. When Texas cowboys misunderstood the word "galón" for "gallon," the popular, though incorrect, legend may have been born.
