Ordinarily, a homburg is not my hat, but a couple of these look kind of interesting. In particular the Quiote. Just thought I'd share.

too bad they won't ship....
they do have some nice homburg-type hats. but they will only sell to customers who can find their way to baltimore and walk in their store. perhaps if they follow the "lounge" ....or perhaps some of their customers could bring this to their attention ....they might want to service such a group of discriminating customers.

I came across Hippodrome Hatters awhile back, after admiring a snap-brim purchased by an East Coast associate.
You DO have to call for pricing. As of a few years ago (2002-ish) they were pretty reasonable for a top quality hat. They would not ship to me (in IL), I had to have my friend pick up my purchase as a favor.
A pity. If they offered shipping, I'd pick up at least 2 more from them.

Every week, eBay has tons of new homburgs for sale in a variety of colors -- all from the same seller. They look exactly like the ones sold by "hiphats". Snoop around here:

800 number?
come to think of it, why would they bother having a website if all they want is walk-in traffic?

With this unhelpful business approach, I predict Hippodrome Hatters will be ex-hatters soon.
Time for them to practice the phrase: "Would you like fries with that?"
