In shape this is closer to a "pilgrim" hat than a top hat - it tapers toward the top more than a top hat should. You can kind of tell from the picture now that I'm looking at it again, but not well enough, hence this review!

For the price, it's fine - it arrived a little dented but the dents popped right out. It's that sort of felt flocking over plastic - definitely not a lifetime buy, but for $10 what can you expect.

I have an average to slightly-large head - this thing is pretty huge. Not for kids, many adults will need to craft some sort of sizing band, I think!
