Our take · Researched, not tested

A top hat in Napa Vino leather, the color of a good red wine.

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

Napa Vino is a wine-dark leather, and it gives a top hat a warmth black can't match. This Hampton is top grain cowhide, midweight, in that red shade. The crown rises to 4 3/4 in; the brim is only 2 in wide. Deerskin lacing pulls the leather band tight, and an AHM Velcro sweatband adjusts how it sits on your head. Assembly takes place in the USA. Holiday parties, vampire costume nights and steampunk balls are its natural habitat.

Walt's tip: Set it down crown first on a clean surface, and keep it out of a hot car between stops.

Questions

Which size of the Hampton should I get?

Measure your head where the hat sits and match it to the chart. MD fits heads 22 to 22 3/4 in (56 to 57 cm) on American Hat Makers' chart. XL fits heads 23 5/8 to 24 1/4 in (60 to 61 cm) on American Hat Makers' chart. Between sizes, American Hat Makers says to size up and use the foam insert it includes.

When would you wear the Hampton?

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.

Can you travel with the Hampton?

Wear it on travel days. It isn't listed as packable, so it shouldn't go folded in a suitcase. On a plane, set it crown down in the overhead bin with nothing on top.

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

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.

What if it doesn't fit?

American Hat Makers states 90-day easy returns (per American Hat Makers, as stated on their site Nov 6, 2026). Check the store's current policy before you buy; its page is the final word.
