"When traveling with hats, I suggest a hat box, which is designed specifically to protect headwear. Some are molded for an intended style, like a cowboy hat, and others have crush-resistant shells to protect from bends or creases regardless of hat shape. Many also do double duty as storage or boast travel-friendly features like trolley sleeves. To find the best hat boxes, we tested 10 popular designs evaluating ease of use, protection, capacity, portability, and value."
"Made from heavy-duty plastic, this protective case is designed to hold western-inspired hats, though we could easily see it used for other styles, too. The best feature by far is the internal sizer, which is adjustable to ensure that every hat is securely positioned in place. During our tests, we found it offered full protection to the hats' brim and crown, and experienced no issue with maintaining the shape of the hats we placed inside."
"The capacity depends on the size of the hats being packed, however, we were able to fit five small cowboy styles inside. Additionally, we were impressed by the locking latches, which are easy to open and keep everything contained well. There's also an interior mirror, which we thought was an unexpected and thoughtful addition, and we like that the entire box is airline-approved for travel. Plus, it comes in a slew of attractive gem tones such as emerald green, deep purple"
Hats are often essential for travel but are vulnerable to crushing and shape loss when packed in luggage or placed in overhead bins. Hat boxes provide tailored protection, with some molded for specific styles and others featuring crush-resistant shells to guard brim and crown. Many hat boxes offer storage functions and travel-friendly additions like trolley sleeves. Ten popular designs were tested for ease of use, protection, capacity, portability, and value. A heavy-duty plastic western-style case includes an adjustable internal sizer, locking latches, an interior mirror, airline approval, and capacity to hold multiple small cowboy hats in attractive colors.
