Modern Silk Topper?
Cufflink, you will never find a size 8 top hat on Ebay. They were never made in such a large size. Even today, the wool versions made by Bollman go up to a size XL. The only ones that may go up to an 8 are the real ones made here inthe USA. There is a company called Krieger Top Hats that make... -

BARBISIO Brothers
Hi Max, Your Barbisio was made in Columbia SA . The easiest way to tell the difference between the Italian and the south American hats is on the leather. The hats made in Columbia do not say "Made in Italy" . Not that they arent good hats, the quality on them is quite good. We sell them still... -

Magill Hat Co Montreal Canada.
We looked into Magill years ago. I would stick with Biltmore 100% . Even though the price is higher, you get what you pay for. They have a line called the Senator collection that isnt expensive. The Magill hats dont look good at all. The shapes are horrible and the quality isnt much better... -
Czech Republicans: Tonak, Huckel, no name
Tonak used to make all of Dorfman Pacific's fur felt hats before they switched to the Chinese garbage. Look for the Scala label on hats from 5 yearsago . You will find a decent hat for a good price. Steven www.bencrafthats.com
