Love It!!
Very high quality top hat that was delivered in a box commensurate to it's size. I had ordered two other hats from a different company and they were both crushed because of the small boxes they were packed in. This top hat and quick delivery was absolutely with the money. Looking forward to other Victorian purchases!!

The outfit is for a Youtube channel, but I've always wanted a nice top hat anyway.

All goods worth the price asked.
I tend to dress archaically daily. Depending on what I'm wearing people call me: the mad hatter, Col. Sanders, Dr. Who, the Monopoly Man, the Joker, the Penguin-- the list goes on. I own several Derbies, top hats and Fedoras. I shop for clothing at thrift stores, flea markets and online. Shopping online is a gamble. I've never been cheated at Historical Emporium, where, like Sam Colt said, "All goods worth the price asked." Thank you for being fair.

Exceptional Quality
I have always wanted a Top Hat. I purchased the Wahmaker Highland Frock Coat and have worn it to Court (I'm a lawyer). When it came time for the annual reading of the Declaration of Independence at the Court House, I knew I had to wear my frock coat, but wanted a quality Top Hat that didn't look cheap. I ordered the Victorian Top Hat, the quality is amazing. The hat looks very nice and I intend to wear it occasionally come Winter. If you are needing a hat for a Victorian impression, I highly recommend this hat.

Victorian Top Hat
I'd been wanting a top hat for many years. I kept looking for one at hat shops - most don't carry top hats - and when I would find one, they never had them in my size, the shape seemed off or the quality was really not up to par. I am thrilled with the hat I received from Historical Emporium. The quality is great, it's a perfectly shaped top hat and the fit is perfect. This is the second time I've ordered from Historical Emporium and will definitely not be the last!

for Dickens party
Was for a Christmas Dickens themed party and we fit in nicely. Good compliments on our outfits. They seem as well made or better than expected

Great, but be aware it's short
I love the fit and feel of this hat, and the material is authentic in fit and feel. Be aware that if you're trying to get a traditional top hat, this one's short (which is correct for the style!), much like if you were buying a bowler hat and then made it flat instead of round-topped.

Finally - a top hat shape that I like!
In my Dickens caroling group, I've been using a more generic shaped top hat that was too tall for my overall head and frame shape. This John Bull shape is stylish and just right. It was a bit snug, but I was able to steam it and it stretched right out to fit perfectly!

Great hat!
I plan on wearing the hat with a Regency Tailcoat at this years Dickens on the Strand (Galveston, Texas). It will no doubt fit in well with the other Victorian era outfits at the event.

Too small
Such a waste of time and especially money. Didn't read the fine print about returns and extra costs for hat boxes because of their size.... Unbelievable. The return shipping cost $37.15 for a $75.00 hat. Never again. Won't be shopping with you any longer.

Authentic
I was impressed with how authentic the top hat looks and feels up close. An added surprise that was not in the picture was a feather and hat pin tucked into the hat band. No doubt, you'll love this hat.

AWESOME!!!
Awesome quality product!! I ordered a black John Bull top hat, and it is beautiful! The sizing was spot on, it arrived much more quickly than I imagined, and in perfect condition. I'm not sure what I expected, but I was more than impressed with both the materials and workmanship, and will gladly recommend Historical Emporium to my friends and colleagues!

Great Price
Great Price and fits great. I have not worn this hat to an event yet however I can already tell you that I love this hat over the Coachman's that I have previously purchased couple of months ago. Coachman's hat feels cheaply made compared to the John Bull which is Ironic when you compare the prices.

I wish I could post a pic!
This hat was perfect for a costume based on Bram Stoker's Dracula. Although I look nothing like Gary Oldman, my costume did and that made me perfectly recognizable to most at our annual Halloween bash. Only those who were too young or hadn't seen the movie had no clue. And, even if I hadn't gone that direction, the classic costume, including the Victorian Top Hat were amazing. (classic costume not included)

Fantastic quality, just perfect
Ordered these for costumes for Victorian Carolers. They just looked wonderful and the gray really popped from the background. Highly recommended, the quality was fantastic and fit well. Just terrific.
