I was looking for a hat to go with my tuxedo for an upcoming event. I did not want a top hat as I feel that top hats are for tails. This classic Homburg is the perfect solution and a much nicer look than a fedora is for a tuxedo. I am never sure of ordering hats that are sized, but the size guide was perfect for me. I was somewhat surprised to learn that the Homburg has been around since the 1890's. As the saying goes: "Fashion comes and goes, by Style is timeless".
