ten gallon
Ranch hand's headwear
Ten gallon describes a style of cowboy hat with a tall crown and wide brim: He tipped his ten-gallon hat to the ladies.
Despite the name, the hat doesn't hold ten gallons—the term likely comes from Spanish *galón* (braid), referring to decorative hatbands, not liquid capacity.
The hat remains an icon of American Western culture.
