Ironman verdict
It is worn in the head slot; compare it with every other piece on the Head list. Black boater is available on free-to-play worlds too. It is tradeable on normal accounts, but an Ironman cannot use the Grand Exchange or trade for it, so the sources on this page are the whole list. High Alchemy turns one into 135 coins.
