Our take · Researched, not tested

A black leather top hat for ringmasters, brides and the boldly dressed.

By Walt Mercer, felt, fit and care desk Pen name, fact-checked by our team

The top hat has been through high society, the circus ring and the costume trunk, and black leather suits all three. This Bromley is midweight cowhide with a 4 in crown and a 2 in brim, and no band. An AHM velcro sweatband helps it sit securely over pinned hair. LG and XL are the sizes available. Assembled in the USA.

Walt's tip: Pin your hair low at the nape. A top hat over a high bun leans like a chimney in the wind.

Questions

How should it fit?

Level on your head, about a finger above your eyebrows, clearing the tops of your ears. Sizes in stock run LG to XL. LG fits heads 22 7/8 to 23 1/2 in (58 to 59 cm) on American Hat Makers' chart. Between sizes, size up and add an insert.

When would you wear the Bromley?

Leather top hats suit festivals, Renaissance fairs, steampunk events and costume nights more than white-tie galas. Wear it level, and take it off indoors at the table.

Does it pack flat?

The store doesn't list it as packable, so don't fold it. Folding can leave a permanent crease. Wear it when you travel, or set it crown down in the overhead bin.

How do you care for a leather hat like the Bromley?

Wipe it with a soft, barely damp cloth and let it dry away from heat, which can stiffen and crack leather. A leather conditioner keeps it supple; test it inside the crown first. Never machine-wash it.

Can you return it?

Per American Hat Makers, as stated on their site Nov 6, 2026, it offers 90-day easy returns. Policies change, so confirm on the store's page before you order.

No. American Hat Makers sells it. The store button opens their product page, and we earn a commission if you buy, at no cost to you.
