This is the finest felt that can be made with excellent solidity. It is still made using the ancient know-how of the 19th century. To do this, the best hairs are selected, those of the chest.

The homburg hat was popularized by Edward VII after visiting Germany and bringing back a hat of this style.

La qualité de ce chapeau est bluffante ; il est léger, doux à tomber, le procédé "mélusine" le rend vraiment unique, il est très agréable à porter et ne passe pas inaperçu. Je rêvais d'un hambourg aussi beau, il surpasse mon Robert Heath. Voilà un couvre-chef qui vaut largement son prix et l'attente pour sa fabrication.
