Our take · Researched, not tested

Rings, deerskin lacing and black cowhide for a stage-ready silhouette.

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

A ringed leather band turns a classic shape into something with a bit of rock and roll in it. The women's El Dorado SR2 is black cowhide leather, standing 4 1/2 in at the crown, with a 2 in brim. Rings line the leather band, and deerskin lacing cinches it in place. Fit comes from an AHM Velcro sweatband, and the hat is assembled in the USA. It looks at home on a stage, at a bike night or paired with a corset and boots for a costume.

Walt's tip: Hat on the head, sunglasses on the face. Tucking glasses into the band can scratch them on the rings.

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 XL to XX. XL fits heads 23 5/8 to 24 1/4 in (60 to 61 cm) on American Hat Makers' chart. Between sizes, size up and add an insert.

When would you wear the El Dorado SR2?

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 El Dorado SR2?

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.
