Hats in the Belfry John Bull Theater Quality Wool Top Hat in

Hats in the Belfry John Bull Theater Quality Wool Top Hat in Black Grey Pearl (Large Pearl)

This deluxe, heavy gauge wool top hat is about as close to time traveling as it gets. The top hat, invented in 1797 by a man named John Hetherington, created great controversy and chaos in the streets of London the first time it was worn in public by the man himself. The top hats were not popular until the early 1800's and then they became a status symbol for men of business and high society. This elegant top hat has a slight flair in the top of its 6 1/2" crown and a 2 1/2" grosgrain hatband at the base. The 2 1/2" gently curled brim is bound with 5/8" grosgrain trim. Our quality 100% wool topper is a wonderful touch to your formal attire. The Belfry Basics Collection is akin to the woman's little black dress. This grouping of hats quantifies hundreds of years of traditional headwear. From the vintage English Derby to the staple black men's fedora, these hats represent everything headwear has ever stood for.
