What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?
Today I dedicated myself to the second Borsalino poorly explained and even worse photographed by the seller. It was blue-gray in the photographs, dusty and extremely battered. I took a gamble and upon arrival I found another hat, in the sense that cleaned and put back together it turned out to...- Daniele Tanto

The BORSALINO BROTHERHOOD
The discovery is one of those that leave their mark in the history of research into the history of Borsalino. I had seen parts of the catalog on the Italian market, lithographs of the workforce, employees and exports and factory and some others, sold individually, at high prices. Parts of the...- Daniele Tanto

I wanted to give my contribution to the thread dedicated to wool hats by publishing the photographs of the French and Italians shown here seven or eight years ago Unfortunately the images are gone due to storage issues I then start again wearing a "Thibet Luxe made especially for A. Meer"...- Daniele Tanto

Thanks Randy. I agree with your observations, but I've been buying hats that aren't in my size for a while and I'm a little worried because I don't have room to store them. Guess I'll have to sell some after petting it- Daniele Tanto

Less bold than the "Chicago 1930 Years" this is a humble hat with a fantastic "Misto" felt It wasn't easy to convince the seller to send me a photo of the felt, his solution was drastic: take it or leave it I took a chance and won Charles Hatters measures 58 centimeters, or 5 1/2 French...- Daniele Tanto

There are not only ancient wool or misto hats, but also ones that are recent enough to seem out of time I had anticipated that I had a couple of curiosities relating to the end of hat making in Italy It is a period in which these hats arrive on the market with something unexpected, the latest...- Daniele Tanto

Thanks. "M Gris Fer" is one of the oldest color of Borsalino. M is for "Misto" a blend of wool and fur. It is one of my favorite color of the Borsalino palette and your hat is fantastic- Daniele Tanto

Grazie molte. The felt is, to my eye, a "Misto" but now I have a confirmation from the sweatband. It seems old, the paper label could say more...- Daniele Tanto

Stefan, it was for this reason (almost floppy) that I was wondering who the manufacturer of the felt was, because the same sensation to the touch is also found in the Guerra 1855 from the same period and also in some Panizzas. Notwithstanding that a similar finish was difficult to find in those...- Daniele Tanto

Marcel, yes, I confirm. I'm Borsalino in disguise. Made more "firm" to look English, considering the conception of Italian hatters for felt produced in the UK, considered hard for their construction standards. It was the moment, like many others in the battle for market shares among Italian...- Daniele Tanto
