Trivia
- The hat is an obvious reference to the children's fictional book character Template:W, created by American children book author and cartoonist Template:W.
- The "Dr" in the item name also refers to "Dr. Seuss", which is one of the pen names of Theodor Seuss Geisel. The entire name "Dr's Dapper Topper" is likely a homage to Geisel's famous writing style, which described a person or thing sing-song, anaphoric way.
- The name is similar to the name chosen by Propaganda Contest winner J.Axer for his unique Towering Pillar of Hats, which has the name 'J.Axer's Dapper Topper'.
- This is one of the few Soldier hats that allow players to see his eyes, normally obstructed by his oversized helmet.
- Dr. Seuss wrote Anti-Nazi propaganda in the 1930s, which would be the reason why Soldier would wear this hat.
