Summary
Overview & Obtaining
Cowboy hats are the complementary garment to dusters, both tied to a Western theme in RimWorld. As with Dusters, Cowboy hats provide good thermal insulation. Cowboy hats can be purchased, crafted, or stripped from Outlanders. Cowboy hats also provide a 10% bonus to social chat impact, due to their style.
Crafting
As a complicated garment, cowboy hats require complex clothing to be researched and can only be made at a hand-tailoring bench or an electric tailoring bench. A cowboy hat requires 25 of any textile and 30 units of work.
Conclusion & Comparison
Cowboy hats are an easy way to protect from hot weather while also adding a bit of extra armor and a boost to social impact. For example, consider a pawn wearing button-down shirt, pants, and a duster (all normal quality, cloth). This outfit gives +18.54°C of insulation from heat. Adding a cowboy hat to this outfit increases the heat insulation to +27.54°C. Compared to the tuques and bowler hats:
- All three hats offer the same coverage and armor
- Bowler hats offer a slightly larger boost to social impact (+15% vs. +10%) but slightly less insulation from heat (40% vs. 50%)
- Tuques offer significantly more insulation from cold (50% vs. 10%), but don't offer any insulation from heat or social impact boost
