Hatmakers typically use the X-system to rate the quality of their hats. In general, the higher the number of Xs assigned to the hat, the better the quality is. The real difference lies in the amount of beaver fur used to make the felt. Beaver fur has a softer feel than other natural furs and can be packed more densely within the body of the hat. With more fibers per square inch, the felt can be made lighter and thinner than hat bodies made from other furs while retaining its firmness or body. The more beaver fur used to make a hat, the smoother the finish, creating a luxurious feeling felt with no compromise in durability or body.
