Henschel Deerstalker-Sherlock Holmes (3/5) | Dec 29, 2007 | Anonymous | Or US |
| The hat is a great value and looks good but runs small. I debated on purchasing a small or a medium because my head size was just under a medium size as shown on the hat size chart. Unfortunately, what I really needed was a large size. | ||||

Ideally, Watson...though often portrayed as wearing the deerstalker, Master Sherlock Holmes wore it only every so often...nevertheless, this hat is the finest example of Sherlockiana I've ever owned. Not only are the materials and assembly above par, but it's very friendly to the pocketbook; I have bought a deerstalker AND an Indiana Jones hat from VillageHatShop.com, and have yet to be disappointed by either the merchandise or the merchant. I will most definitely shop here again... |

Highly recommended (5/5) | Oct 13, 2008 | Julius Pavlov | Hoboken NJ US |

I've worn deerstalker hats for decades, and this one is splendid, especially considering the price: somebody once tried to sell me a flimsy, summer-shirt-thin d.s. hat for over $60 - the cheek! The buyer will do well indeed to consider the size. L roughly corresponds to M to M+, and XL is somewhere a little over L. However, if the hat feels a bit too large, you can adjust the depth by playing with the knot of strings of the earflaps. I can't wait for the weather to get cooler, so I can start wearing the hat. |

Holmes, of Course! (5/5) | Dec 3, 2007 | Dale Harris | Atkins Vi US |
| I sadly misjudged my head size, so the hat is a tad small (I needed a large not a medium!), but I love the hat as a valued addition to my extensive collection of Sherlock Holmes books! I have several pipes but no real Calabash, so the look is not complete, but I make a fair Holmes at that! Pipe is just for show, anyhoo. Don't touch tobacco! | ||||

| I originally bought this hat to wear with a knee length coat and bent stem pipe, as a Haloween costume. Now that Haloween has passed I find it makes a great hat to wear daily. I agree with the other reviews that it is very small, I usually wear a medium so I ordered a large, and it's still a bit tight. The wool does keep you warm in cool weather, not so much in actual cold (below freezing) so if you are looking for a winter hat it would be best to keep looking. The earflaps are functional, and keep the wind off the ears quite well. | ||||

The Best (5/5) | Dec 6, 2007 | Tracy Lorenz | Grand Haven MI US |
| This is truly a fine product and a useful one at that. It's a shame Sherlock Holmes had to wear one or they'd probably be a lot more popular. It keeps the wind off the back of your neck and is exceptionally warm and the price is great, I'd pay twice as much (but instead I bought two). | ||||
