The Westminster (formerly the Town Shell top hat) is ideal for weddings, garden parties and a day at the races, particularly Royal Ascot. While the timeless and iconic silhouette of the top hat has long been considered a mark of distinction among discerning gentlemen, today, it is equally recognised as a contemporary statement of sartorial style for formal occasions.
The Westminster is crafted from the finest stiffened rabbit felt, trimmed with grosgrain along the brim and finished with a wool felt band. Each topper is fully lined with white satin bearing the Lock & Co. logo and comes with a leather inner headband.
We also include a complimentary Lock & Co. hatbox to keep your topper in.
We advise making an appointment to have your head measured with a Conformateur at our London hat shop to ensure the ideal fit for our top hats.
Every Lock & Co. hat purchased is carefully and expertly hand-prepared in our London shop by one of our Hatters, before being whisked out of our famous green front door.
To find your perfect hat size, we suggest booking a virtual appointment for a consultation with one of our hatters .
