Grey Wool Felt Top Hat - Christys Fashion Topper

Top Hats for sale, this Christys Grey Fashion Topper is made from Wool Felt (not Fur Felt) that provides a timeless classic robust and low maintenance Topper (Typically Wool Felts need brushing as opposed additional care for polished Hats like Antique / Vintage Silk Plush Top Hats and "Melusine" Fur Felt Hats that have a luxurious high sheen and lustre). It comes with a leather sweatband and finished with a Grosgrain Hatband and Bow on the Left Side.

SIZING NOTE: Available in S, M, L, XL there is approx 2cm (2 sizes) between variations (See below). And work on a NEAREST FIT method. If you measure between, eg 58cm then going a size up eg 59cm/ Large option is recommended. If you measure exact on size eg 57cm (Medium) that is nearest, selecting (Large/59cm) would be considered far too big. If it doesn't fit then ideally you may need to come in for an optional extra fitting service, or call to discuss diy shaping.

Traditionally at the Royal Enclosure for many years, "Ascot Grey" was considered the colour associated with Toppers for the Royal Week of Racing in June at Ascot. As in days past "Black" Toppers would be more frequent for Everyday-wear, and Evening-wear; So Grey became considered more Day-wear at select events like no other when Toppers were more frequently worn.

This fashion Top Hat is great starter Topper but still meets the requirement of the Royal Enclosure dress code or just as fashionable on worn by a band musician or at a Country Show.
