Calgary police officers working in the city’s downtown area are about to get a change to their uniform: cowboy hats!

A friend of ours forwarded us an article from CTV.ca that talks about this exciting bit of news and explains why they decided to make cowboy hats part of the uniform. Officers up until now used to wear cowboy hats during the Calgary Stampede, but now they’ll be wearing them year round.

City officials, according to the article, said that the cowboy hats are “both fashionable and user-friendly.” And Calgary’s mayor, Dave Bronconnier, remarked that the hats will be good for the city’s image — and they’ll make officers appear more approachable, as wearing a cowboy hat is “very inviting.”

Since the temperature ranges quite a bit in Calgary, officers really needed something versatile that would work on both hot summer days and freezing winter nights. What better to handle that than a cowboy hat?

The city of Calgary will be ordering 65 hats for the police officers. The particular cowboy hats they’ll be ordering aren’t mentioned in the article, though they note that they are very durable and are expected to last a decade.

Cowboy Hats Year Round

Cowboy hats really do offer an amazing amount of protection all year round. During intense summer heat, they can shield you from the sun — and they can also shield you during bad weather. When it’s hot out, they can also fan air. Plus, they’re incredibly stylish. Allens Boots is proud to offer an impressive selection of cowboy boots, from Stetson and Montecarlo cowboy hats to Bailey and Resistol cowboy hats. We even have children’s cowboy hats.

Christmas seems to arrive faster and faster every year. Really, wasn’t it just New Year’s Eve? Time really flies. But once again, the holidays are here, and that means it’s time to come up with your shopping list. Go for a unique gift this year — or put this one on your own wishlist — and give those special someones on your list Christmas cowboy hats.

We can’t tell you how cool, practical and unique Christmas cowboy hats are as gifts. They’ll really put a smile on the recipients’ faces when they see their new boots under the tree. From kids to adults, there’s a perfect cowboy hat that’s bound to make ‘em happy.

Children’s cowboy hats — great for li’l cowboys and cowgirls — are not only adorable, but serve a good purpose by acting as protection from the sun and rain. They can also just be great for having around when the kids want to play dress-up. Pair a Bailey Woody Wool Felt Hat with a stick horse, and your youngster has just about everyone he or she needs to play cowboy or cowgirl.

Christmas cowboy hats for children like the Stetson Rodeo Junior Felt Hat and the Stetson Rodeo Junior Straw Hat also make wonderful gifts for kids that they’ll be able to use and enjoy.

There are so many cowboy hats to choose from at Allens Boots — probably enough to seriously weigh down Santa’s sleigh. Men’s Montecarlo cowboy hats are a stylish addition to any guy’s wardrobe. Women’s Montecarlo cowboy hats come in fun, bright colors like pink, red and blue.  Don’t miss cowboy hats from Resistol, Southern Thread and Stetson, either.
