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.

Great Hat
The hat came quickly, the size was appropriate. The shape around the hat band is a tad strange, but I believe with some wear and sweat it will mold to the head. I am a magician and I will be using this hat extremely often and am pleased with the purchase.

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!

I am looking for any hats that can look good while conducting Masonic Lodge. This had does not meet the standards. I thought it would, but it is too over the top. This can only be seen in person as opposed to internet. The shorter Top hats I got in exchange are working so much better.

Great Hat!
Quality is most excellent! It is rather round while my head is more oblong but size is pretty true and I may have it steam-shaped atthe local Cowboy Shop.
Would buy again.

John Bull hat
Very nice hat, however it seems made for a very round head shape. Ny head is more of a long oval so hat was tight fore and aft but loose side to side. I did get it to fit better with a little work. Just be aware, the proper size may not fit perfectly right out of the box. Well worth the time to make it fit.

Great Looking Hat
The John Bull top hat is a great product and fits the era wonderfully. I measured as instructed and ordered the indicated size. The hat I received was slightly large but serviceable. If you want to exchange any item with Historical Emporium you will have no problem but the added shipping costs will double the purchase price of your items!

hat
even though i measured my hat size correctly and have ordered a previous hat and it fit perfect, this one does not run true to its size. i was dissapointed that it was too large out of no fault of my own. the size that this hat states is not accurate and I'm stuck with a hat that does not fit due to the restrictions of the return policy. nice hat but the sizes are off. very dissapointing.

Top marks for top hat
Thank you for providing great quality options for period clothing and accessories. The John Bull top hat is a well made and terrific looking piece that beautifully compliments your Klondike Vest.
The quality of your clothing and accessories is superior to any other source I have found for period clothing, costumes, accessories and props. Unlike most other providers, your in stock inventory is large enough that even when I have a last minute need for a piece or even an entire outfit you provide multiple options. And your complete outfits web page not only makes it easy to find pieces that will coordinate wonderfully well, but also provides great inspiration. Well done!

Looks great, weird fit
The hat is very elegant. Got lots of complements. Looks good with steampunk goggles on them. However, the hat is not oval (head-shaped) enough. On my head, it binds at the front and back -- which is sort-of good since it has gaps on the left and right, and only only the front/back pressure is holding it on. Even so, it rocks back-and-forth, left-right as my head tilts.

My Favorite Hat
This hat (like most products I find on here) is durable, yet elegant. It's reinforced quite well to retain its shape including the slight "bell" shape the brim has. It's not a bad price as well.
I'd recommend it.

interesting size
Hat size was a little bit bigger than expected. It was much fatter (side to side) than a normal hat, and much shorter (front to back). It fits on my head, but tents to tilt side to side. I expect I could reshape it, but haven't tried to do so yet, so don't know how that would work.
