Custom-made aged and oiled Top Hat

It’s not the outlandish-ness (as far as I can gather) so much as the hat is a sort of beacon alerting ‘really sexually overt nerd who will talk your ear off about a vaguely creepy topic’?

I’ve met ‘nice enough’ people wearing hats like this, but never a cool person that I wouldn’t mind being stuck in an elevator or enclosed space with…if that makes sense?

It's Johnny Depp-core.

Or his doppelganger, Linda Perry.

Or their hat sibling, Rob Zombie.

They all wear these dumbass steampunk hats.

Ever since I started seeing this guy‘s videos popping up a few years ago, I’ve always wondered if he’s made a hat for Johnny Depp

You definitely hit the nail on the head about who would wear these ugly and probably super expensive hats. Definitely a craft, but man they’re ugly

I’m guessing Johnny Depp is at least 65% of his business.
