Supreme Tinkerer (5/5) Sep 7, 2008 James "Harvey Arbutus Tinkersmith" Smith Swannanoa NC US
  Love the Tophat - so glad you could fit my tiny head.
See the hat in action at Dragon*Con.

Top-notch Tophat (5/5) Oct 14, 2008 Ian Powers Vero Beach Fl US
  I love it.
Like the other guy's review (at this time there's only one other), I'm glad you were able to accommodate the size of my head. Although my head is huge, like 7 5/8.
I bought it for my sister's wedding and it was perfect.
Fit great, looked great.
A section of the lining did come unglued.
I'm assuming because it got a little wet.
It rained during the wedding, but it's supposed to be good luck.
It was fairly soggy the whole weekend.
I'm not worried about it though, I can fix it.
Still, overall it's an excellent hat and I still wear it often.
The Hit of the Wedding... (5/5) Oct 20, 2008 Dave Abeles Lebanon NJ US
  Having a top hat for the wedding was my idea, but I'll admit that my fiance (now my wife!) found this one online. I wore it into the reception and it had an immediate impact--people thought it was great! I loved having it, and later in the evening during all the dancing, it ended up being passed around until just about everyone had a photo of themselves with it on. The fit was perfect and it is comfortable to wear. It will forever be a symbol of a great evening!
Makes A Statement! (5/5) Nov 3, 2008 C.M. Mothersbaugh Windsor MO US
  This hat was purchased as a gift for my husband. He is something of a hat collector. He is well known in this town for his Village Hats. He loves it and can't wait to get the rest of the outfit to go with it!
Brings out the Slash in you (5/5) Nov 6, 2008 Evan Bronxville NY US
  Bought this hat and modified it to match the top hat style of legendary guitarist Slash from Guns N' Roses, Slash's Snakepit, and Velvet Revolver fame. Aside from his guitar skills, he is perhaps one of the most iconic figures of modern rock today - and his top hat is his signature look. I scoured the internet looking for a replica, and none came close. The Jaxon hat was a perfect size and shape.

After I removed the fabric band and feather, I fashioned a thick strip of black leather mounted silver-plated steel slotted conchos to give that authentic Slash look. Needless to say, the results were outstanding and made for a really high-end replica.

I couldn't have done it without the Jaxon Victorian Top Hat, and Villagehatshop.com was top notch through and through.
Everyone thought it was cool! (5/5) Nov 19, 2008 Michelle Egg Harbor Township NJ US
  I bought this hat to use with my Halloween costume. I dressed up as Alice Cooper and everyone loved the hat! The costume would not have been nearly as authentic without it. It's an excellent quality hat. The shipping was fast and the price is fair compared to other web stores. I would recommend The Village Hat Shop to everyone!
Multiple purchases for our Theater Group (5/5) Dec 4, 2008 Matt Betz Grand Prairie Te US
  I bought this hat for "A Christmas Carol" for our Community Theater. When I showed up at practice with it, six of the other men just had to have one for their collection. I had to place another order for six additional hats. We are very pleased with the look and quality of the had. We know it will make the look of the performances very professional.
a real hat (5/5) Dec 7, 2008 DKK Sandia Park NM US
  This is not one of those imitation hats that you see on cheap halloween costumes, etc. This is the real deal, a high quality hat suitable for fancy dress occasions. Note that the shape requires the hat to be a rigid oval. If your head is not that shape (mine isn't), then you'll need to "shim" it to fit properly. You can do this by inserting strips of soft foam under the sweatband where the fit is loose.
Love This Hat!!! (5/5) Dec 14, 2008 Michael Kelly Livermore CA US
  I bought this hat to complete my Victorian costume for San Francisco's annual Dickens Christmas Fair between Thanksgiving and Christmas. I tried to be as authentic as I could with my costume and this hat just fit it perfectly! It's not a cheap imitation but the real thing and I'm as happy as I can be with it!
Just simply Grand! (5/5) Dec 23, 2008 Robert E. L. Luh II Village or Ridgewood Ne US
  If you want to make a grand statement then this is the hat for you. People complement me where ever I go. I wore it to the Christmas tree lighting in my town and it was second only to the tree lighting itself. It also made a grand enterance at my work's Christmas party. I have 56 hats in my collection and this by far is my favorite.
