Optimo south side mobsters
Brent, I think you can have two great hats with a little work and a few choices that are closer to your taste. These are hats that appear to be made to be changed over the course of their existence. I am very curious to see the final result- Daniele Tanto

BARBISIO Brothers
Fourth and last purchase which concludes the acquisitions service for winter-spring 2022. This too was bought for the color and also because I really like the Barbisio production. Barbisio size 60 or 7 1/2 in the USA in one color. The felt is soft and light, called as "Arno" the river that...- Daniele Tanto

Thanks Stefan. I suspected the color could be rare, but it was only when it arrived I had the confirmation :)- Daniele Tanto

The BORSALINO BROTHERHOOD
I bought this Borsalino because it was the first one I saw in this configuration. Then the size was the right one, perhaps with a little luck. So alas it seems not to be. Borsalino Antica Casa - Augusta size 6 (french point) or 59 centimeters which becomes a 7 3/8 in the US. A little tight...- Daniele Tanto

I absolutely agree with you. I have a doubt? Who made the hats for Guerra 1855? May be Panizza? I see that now they came fron Tuscany as the actual Panizza- Daniele Tanto

We share the same size and I never found in many years a bowler, in the Italian market, to "cover" our heads :)- Daniele Tanto

I confess that I have let go of a lot of bowler hats in this period, I hope not to sadden FL friends in love with this hat. Some were interesting, but the often small size or the exaggerated price kept me away from them. This bowler hat has two features that attracted me. It is a G.B...- Daniele Tanto

Italian brands hats
In my rarefied presence on FL I have a few hats to show you Guerra 1855 is one of the less present brands on the vintage Italian hat market. Active until today, the company had until a few years ago a website on which to see the production, now it seems to have vanished. I have a few hats...- Daniele Tanto

French Hats and makers.
Laubin Grand Luxe Chiné Loden fedora in the color Corneille is another piece that confirms, at least in my opinion, how connected French hat manufacturers were at a certain point in their history. The variety of felt and its color can be found, with minimal variations, in the Flechet and Tirard...- Daniele Tanto

PANIZZA paparazzi
First of all it must be said that it is one of those Panizza to remember, knowing the variability in the quality of the producer of Lake Maggiore. "Castorino" certainly refers to the finish of the felt and the "vents" in a velour hat denote its commercialization in a warm region such as Sicily...- Daniele Tanto

What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?
You're absolutely right Stefan, but when it comes to Italian and French hats it is always difficult to find the best. The quality is very high and if we then add some other European producers we begin to break down ... I leave aside the American production because I do not know it, mind you- Daniele Tanto

What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?
Stefan, Barbisio as others many Italian hats producers had a large market in South America where this type of hats were so "fashionable" in the past. This is the main reason of the "Italian western" or better "Spaghetti western hat" :)- Daniele Tanto
