Post New Hats Here!
Nice find Marcel. The origins of the hat marked Gelot is a little bit complicate. The tag of size is Panizza, the only Italian manufacture able in those year to made velour. The paper label is Borsalino, so take tour own conclusione- Daniele Tanto

What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?
Today for a gray and windy day I chose a French hat from the 1950s, perhaps it is from the late 1940s, but in any case it has a very elegant appearance and can be seen from the finishes. It is part of a trio of Flechets who are all grey, but none of them are the same. Flechet de Luxe - Super...- Daniele Tanto

Trip to Italy
Three and a half days in Rome and in other cities of art, Firenze and Venezia, is equivalent to the fluttering of eyelashes. I think it is appropriate for you to dedicate yourself to the topics that interest you most in the time between one tourist visit and another. The center of Rome is not...- Daniele Tanto

Trip to Italy
The list of shops in the cities you will visit is indicative for finding hats. Keep in mind that you will find average hats and many below average because in Italy the hat as a fashion accessory has disappeared for at least forty years. If you're lucky, you might find some interesting...- Daniele Tanto

Trip to Italy
Have a good trip to Italy, first of all. The three cities you have chosen are the most visited and touristy in Italy, therefore you will find goods, restaurants and much of the offer aimed at tourists. I'm sorry to disappoint your expectations of finding used hat shops, but there are very few...- Daniele Tanto

Latest arrival among Central European hats made with velour felt. It is a Huckel 1799 "Durit" made for the French market. In recent times I have had various velour hats in my hands and this is an example of lightness compared to others that have arrived in my collection. The felt is dense...- Daniele Tanto

Sunny day and temperatures above the seasonal average, here in the north-east of Italy. Conversion from a women's Borsalino to a men's hat by Fleur, hatter of Penumbra Hats in Netherland. The plus of this hat is the velour felt in blue and its malleability. Bought cheaply in the States, it...- Daniele Tanto

Some thoughts on a fantastic and very difficult to decipher hat. Let's start with the paper label. "Mont" is, I think, one of the first times I've seen it mentioned on a paper label. "Gris Fer", however, is much more common. "Madresta" still becomes a little enigma. We need to ask Stefan, the...- Daniele Tanto

In order of preference con qualche invidia, caro Stefan Like every Sunday morning, the rite of choice is repeated, with great joy. A chapter should be opened on the Borsalino longhair. There are few of them and felt is always an enigma. I say that it was certainly not one of the company's...- Daniele Tanto
