The Wild Ride
The Wild Ride began as a new style and quickly became one of Dusty's best sellers, earning a permanent place in her hat lineup. Designed for both men and women, it pairs a tall, hand-shaped crown with a sweeping 4 1/2-inch brim for a bold silhouette that can be worn every day or dressed up. The original design is shown in Dark Moss, finished with a velvet ribbon and Dusty's signature feather embellishment. Other examples in Whiskey and Granite demonstrate how the same distinctive shape can take on a different personality through color and custom finishing. Handmade in Sturgis, South Dakota, The Wild Ride reflects Dusty's blend of Western tradition, individual style, and wearable art.
