What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?
Clear and cold day in the morning and warm in the middle of the day. This is the last hour of sunshine before sunset and I'm getting ready for a dinner with some fellow photographers. The hat that accompanies me is a "late" Barbisio when the best days of the Sagliano factory were over...- Daniele Tanto

The BORSALINO BROTHERHOOD
The museum is open almost every day, or by appointment. There are no guards, just an alarm system:) I too have seen a few Borsalinos in the shape of a "Lord hat". For this reason, with great enthusiasm, I bought it. The "Impossible" series is over and I hope to keep it closed so as not to...- Daniele Tanto

The BORSALINO BROTHERHOOD
Brent the Borsalino you showed seems from the exterior prior to the WWII, but liner and some details make me think of a Fifties "reproduction" of a Twenty/Thirties Borsalino hat. The hat is really nice, but you know I like black hats. With more details to discover under the sweatband the...- Daniele Tanto

What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?
The photo is from yesterday, today the rain fell abundantly all day. Bantam Cervo Loden from the fifties or maybe the sixties. One of the mixed felts I own in which Cervo has a great mastery. For lovers of "mixed felts" I have also put the label of the Cooperative of workers who...- Daniele Tanto

The BORSALINO BROTHERHOOD
Alan, your observation is perfect, but it has an explanation: the red bricks of the house behind the wisteria that supports the en plein air set greatly influence the gray felts. I made arrangements with a colleague to photograph the hats in the studio. The best color is one in which gray has no...- Daniele Tanto

The BORSALINO BROTHERHOOD
I hope this is the last chapter of the "Beautiful and Impossible" series, at least for this year. Brother of Brummel's, in size, that you see in this thread has aroused enormous interest, later revealing itself to be a bitter disappointment. The size ruled out any possibility for me and for...- Daniele Tanto

" The Great British Hat Makers "
We are at the penultimate chapter of the series "Beautiful and impossible" This time the fault is mine and mine alone. On the wave of enthusiasm I bought two hats from a mute or rather uninformed seller. The discovery of the size put the writer in a bad mood and also Stefan who first peeked...- Daniele Tanto

For me it is a great compliment when a hat is not flashy or extravagant, when it speaks a simple language and is recognizable without being too bold. Barbisio has always done, or almost, this with its production. The felt is not discolored or stained, but the moth holes were too noticeable, so...- Daniele Tanto

We introduce a Borsalino that has an unknown peculiarity in many hats of the house in Alessandria: its size is full, which is strange in the sizes of the Borsalino Borsalino Qualità Suprema size 6 1/2 or 60 and 7 1/2 in the US. The color of the felt is "Lupo - Wolf" one of the most difficult...- Daniele Tanto

BARBISIO Brothers
This Barbisio arrived, in worse conditions, together with the Panizza "For ever". For a reason of love for the brand of Sagliano I thought of restoring it even if the task for the hatter was difficult. The Barbisio had been attacked in two places by moths. Barbisio Qualità Extra size 60...- Daniele Tanto

PANIZZA paparazzi
Me too Panos. It seems a very high end hat for the standard of Panizza quality Brent thanks for your appreciation. I try everyday to rediscover hats buried in the past. Sometimes it works, sometimes not at all. This is an half satisfaction because this Panizza does not want stay on my head...- Daniele Tanto

I don't know if the windbreaker or the hat is older. However, today with an antique jacket and black Barbisio with pleated ribbon sold in Germany, I enjoyed the sunshine of a warm autumn. Here is a hat that comes from an exchange with the Netherlands. Great discovery of Stefan who has...- Daniele Tanto
