Thanks Michael.
The Borsalino will worth the work to be a wearable hat.
The Cambiaghi is one of the most ancient and interesting hat made in Italy by a not well know producer I have in my collection
I agree with you Panos.
"Beautiful and impossible" is an open chapter especially with the hats found in Mantua and its surroundings, plus a few others that I bought blindly. What is certain is that small sizes cause bad thoughts and at the same time preserve the desire to sell them. With this...
After the first chapter of the series "Beautiful and impossible" I needed comfort and so I wore another hat of the second wave arrived from Mantua and surroundings
It is another interesting discovery of the second wave because it accompanies the two velours made by the "Cappellificio La...
For the series "Beautiful and impossible" this is the chapter one"
In the second wave of hats from Mantua and surroundings, not as high as the first, but very interesting, there are candidates for the category mentioned above.

It is with great pleasure that today I wear a hat that is the result of an exchange
Jonathan (the oldfashioned) kindly agreed to send a homburg Aristocrat made by Mallory to Europe
In return he got a Panama made by Penumbra Hats.
This is one of the very rare USA made hats I have in my...
This Borsalino has a troubled history. It arrived with others a few years ago, I was ensnared by a beautiful lobbia, also of the same brand and I bought a small lot.
The lobbia was almost in order, the others, all Borsalino of various sizes, seemed to have been stored under a steamroller...

Today a gray day when, from time to time, an autumn sun comes out
I have a busy schedule to follow in sorting out the hats that have invaded my office in the last few weeks
For some errands around the city today it is the turn of this transformation of a woman Borsalino "Bolero" by Fleur...
Another beautiful sunny day, full of commitments
Borsalino felt cone in night blue worked by Fleur to obtain a "lobbia" with a slightly unusual seal.
The size is a 59.5cm. and the felt is very light as the entire hat
This are the right days, here in North East Italy, to wear light felt...
The hat for a sunny Sunday
Borsalino Qualità Superiore completely unlined, size 60 cm. or 7 1/2 in US.
I wore it today because the felt is light, malleable and in tune with the changing color of the leaves
We took a long walk and the air warmed up in the middle of the day.
It goes...
When this arrived I was astonished. The felt was magnificient, the hat was a sort of bad experiment.
Fleur did the best to have it as a very "distinguished" Borsalino. It is succesfully and I like it
Thanks Alan for the encouragement too, but I doubt and some are still in the box.
The festival of beautiful and impossible too small hats will continue next week:)
Good morning to all loungers.
I have a problem with some sweatbands that have dried, although they are new old stock, over time and probably due to an inaccurate leather tanning. I used a German product consisting of jojoba and beeswax to soften them. On some it worked, on others the situation...
Another sunny day and a cobalt-enameled sky.
The mornings are cold then the temperature rises and until the afternoon the temperature is pleasant
The right day to wear this Tuscan hat, made in Montevarchi - Arezzo by "La Famigliare" some years ago.
I never thought I'd find a nice brown...
