London's Metropolitan Policemen Peelers uset to wear Stove-pipe top hats for standing on to look over people's heads and walls. They were strong enough for it back then. In 1863 the first custodian helmets were adopted. The London Policemen top hats from 1829 to 1863.

Thank you for sharing. Is it also possible to polish my Christy's Melusine Top Hat like this? Also, where can I get this polishing pad from, please? Many thanks 🙂
@@heinzguderianbutmoreyounge9659 what sort of oil? And how much should be applied? And what’s tallow? Sorry for all the questions it’s just very rare to find someone who also cares about top hats
Why?is it dirty or what If you want a new one better get to a hatters,the one that know how to works with top hat,if its clean then just use it,cause that part is never gonna shown up
@@heinzguderianbutmoreyounge9659 I currently polish my top hats with a soft hatbrush>water misty spray>velvet finger mouse, but I've heard that water polishing somehow hardens the silk. Do you know if this hardening is permanent, how it happens and how dangerous it is? Also, I've heard about Tallow polishing and other polishing methods which involve hardening a layer of fat, for example, over the top hat to hold the silk flat, but this sounds risky/dangerous. Do you have any advice to preserve my hat? Thank you very much indeed, you're a fount of knowledge, wishing you well, -Carl
@@carltrotter7622 yes,water polish hardened the strands of the silk,and overtime Will make marks,also they evaporate very fastly,i have heard of using tallow but never use them,i prefer polishing them in a vegetable oil,the same as tallow but more efficient
@@heinzguderianbutmoreyounge9659 can you please explain the dangers etc./instructions on how to polish with vegetable oil? I'd be most appreciative, thank you.
They aren’t in style anymore but they are classy classy And why do they wear holes in their pants when they aren’t even holy maybe don’t even know the meaning

@@dariel7001 water is good but evaporate very quick,i like oil but be very careful using it, beef tallow were also good

@@dariel7001 i used some neutral cooking oil,very thin must be applied or it will become greasy and very hard to remove and tallow is beef fat/suet
what about the inside lining and such?
