Post New Hats Here!
Do you have any idea of the age of this hat? I have an offer to buy one in my size for $80 that looks to be in pretty good condition, but I'd like to know more about its age. -

Can you help me Identify this borsalino?
Also, don't forget, especially for Borsalinos whose quality remained up through last decade, the word "Vintage" may include up to 10 years more hats than they did back in 2015, so the interest in knowing this for Borsalinos is still there. @Daniele Tanto still has the best idea and a public... -

That now certainly seems to be the case. -
Can you help me Identify this borsalino?
Hold everything. From the owner of Bencraft Hatters in Brooklyn - "Borsalino hats hats made since 1994 will have a year code printed on the label. Before that, it was just a six digit number . Prior to that there were year code from 1976 until 1985 when the factory moved to its present... -

Can you help me Identify this borsalino?
Are any of those from the mid-70's until 2017? I think that's the period where they did it. The hat I posted was a standard Borsalino, sold regularly. I think the real 50+ year vintage did not follow this, but perhaps we can agree that 70's - 2017 did? -
Can you help me Identify this borsalino?
Those are not the numbers I was referring to. On the label they are usually a combination of numbers, with the first 2 digits being numbers, but not necessarily the rest. I own many (admittedly some came without stickers) and have worked on several over the years (over 40 just 2 weeks ago) and... -

A final x-post with results - After a total rebuild, I can share the results of the Eichenberger. I was able to reuse the liner and kept the sweatband. The original bash was very difficult to discern, but I think I came close with a 5 inch crown and a large center dent. Thoughts? Any info on... -
A Noob's First Fedora / A Little Guidance Please
Just came across this thread and thought I'd mention for any newbie out there who is asking similar questions but is overwhelmed by the sheer volume of info on FL, try using the AI sites to initiate a conversation where you ask these questions. PerplexityAI, I can attest, uses this site as a... -
Can you help me Identify this borsalino?
Is there no white tag under the sweatband on the side opposite the bow? If there is, post the photo and I can help you date it based upon the number on the right side. The first 2 numeric digits are the year of the model. -

Ok. After a total rebuild, I can share the results of the Eichenberger. I was able to reuse the liner and kept the sweatband. The original bash was very difficult to discern, but I think I came close with a 5 inch crown and a large center dent. Thoughts? Any info on what the original was like? -
Is the vintage hat market dead?
I am posting here to revive this year and a half old discussion because I have something of interest to share pertaining to the discussion at the start of this thread and the conclusion that many contributors came to. In testing various iterations of AI, I have noticed that FL, with its great... -
What Hat Are You Working On Today?
This is a x-post, since I also posted in the Swiss Hatmakers forum, but figured I'd share here too. This is an Eichenberger I just received from a Vintage shop in Switzerland today. I'm not showing the final product yet, but it was an almost total rebuild (smashed felt and sweatband still... -

FS: Hats and hat related items - new, used and vintage
It seems that this may be allowed to be posted here now, so I will take a chance. I have set up a store on eBay to sell mostly hats and hat-related items that come to hand (some of which have stories elsewhere in the Lounge). I have a few hats (new and used, straw and fur) listed at the...- jeffgarf
