Our take · Researched, not tested

A tan leather top hat with a tall crown and a laced band.

Light tan leather makes a top hat feel approachable rather than formal. For the women's Hampton, that leather is Cyprus tan top grain cowhide in a medium weight. Its crown reaches 4 3/4 in, and the brim measures 2 in. A band of leather wraps the base, held with deerskin lacing. Fit adjusts through an AHM Velcro sweatband, and the hat is assembled in the USA. Try it with a lace blouse and a long skirt at a Victorian fair or a garden tea.

Walt's tip: Take the hat off at the tea table. Etiquette has outlived the corsets.

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.
