My homburg blew of my head and down the cobbled ally behind the haberdashery and some rapscaluions made off with it. I was crestfallen to be sure...

It's lamentable that no one has any manners anymore, but in case there is even one guy who would like to know how to act, read on for hat etiquette. A man shows respect by removing his hat (or cap) whenever you enter someone's home or office, a restaurant, a theater, or a place of worship. The hat is also removed during the National Anthem. It's okay to wear a hat in the hallways and elevators of the courthouse, but take it off when you enter the court proper. It's not hard to learn manners, and it pays off when you meet the rare person who still values manners and civilization.

lol. Bowler hats were originally worn by game keepers in the UK to ward off cudgel attacks from poachers. They were taken up by various London gangs. Additional were the sharpened pennies placed in the brims. old UK pennies about 3cm across, in modern money. lol

These days, most people over-generalize and call any hat with brim a fedora. There’s a difference between a fedora, a homburg, a borsalino, and a trilby.
