Hello, I'm looking for a Grey or Black homburg to wear to my daughters wedding next year. I'm looking at Ebay and I'm amazed at the prices they're asking. I've been out of the hat market for a couple of years and BAM, homburgs are the new Whippets!. They used to be a dime a dozen.

Anyway, I can wear a 7 1/8 or 7 1/4, I'm right in between. I can pay via PayPal or I may have a hat or two available to trade if you're interested.

Thanks!

I bought one on here for about 100. I had to wait several months for the right size though. Good luck hunting.

The one I bought was black. Still looking for a reasonably priced grey.

I have a few homburgs (bigger size than what you are looking for). My favorites are vintage Stetson St Regis models. I would go for gray since it will have more utility than black.

You should be able to snag a very good example on the bay in the $100 - $150 range if you keep your eye out:

Good luck!

I wish I had seen this. I have a great Adam Hommie I need to sell.
