The Hat Act of 1732 forbade the export of beaver felt hats made in the American colonies. They were competing with British hat makers. American hat makers were angered over the Act. Americans were forced to purchase British made hats and other products which increased the cost to the consumer over the cost of colonial made products. This was just another Act by Parliament that was one of the many causes leading to the American Revolution. Wikipedia has an article dealing with the Hat Act.
