Using a soft bristle hat brush, gently stroke the hat in a short, anti-clockwise motion. This will remove any dust caught on the fur fibres.

Always store top hats in a hat box, away from direct sunlight.

Top hats should be restored after every use. Lock & Co. offers a range of services; please contact us to discuss with our hatters.

The Westminster High Crown is crafted from stiffened rabbit felt, trimmed with grosgrain along the brim, and finished with a wool felt band.

Each topper is fully lined and with a leather inner sweatband.
