Ορισμός και Σημασία του "homburg"

What is a "homburg"?

A homburg is a men's hat characterized by a single dent running down the center of the crown and a wide, upturned brim. Typically made of wool or fur felt, the homburg has a stiff, rounded crown and a brim that is usually about 2.5 to 3 inches wide with a bound edge. Originally popularized in the late 19th century, the homburg became one of the most fashionable and versatile men's hats of the early 20th century, often worn with formal wear or business attire. Today, the homburg is still considered a classic and sophisticated hat, although it is less commonly seen than in its heyday.
