Source of James Spader's hats {The Blacklist}
Most of his hats are in fact Borsalino hats. We sent the prodction company for the show a hat or two. From what I'm told, Mr Spader is very specific with his hat reqiurements. I'm sure Optimo Hats has done some work for him. -
The BORSALINO BROTHERHOOD
I am happy that the truth is now coming out about what Camperio and Moccia were trying to do to the company. They were working together to devalueate the company in order to be able to control it onceagain at a fraction of its value. They were also preventing other potential buyers from trying... -

The BORSALINO BROTHERHOOD
I am happy to see that at least one hat factory is coming back. The Borrione family owned the Cervo factory before it was taken over by the Rommiti group. Now we have to wait and see what happenes with Borsalino . -

In those years Borsalino had almost 3000 workers in the factory. Thats a lot of wages to pay!!! -

I think that pre WW2 , the variety of colors that were worn were not as varied as the selection that Borsalino showed after the war. There were more offerings of colors as time went by. Today the variety of colors that the company make is vast but the quality is not what it was. -

The BORSALINO BROTHERHOOD
The hat was made for Rogers Peet so it was for the American market. The tag could have been put there by the store . I dont think Borsalino used tags like this that were in English. -
The BORSALINO BROTHERHOOD
I was told that the new hat uses vintage ribbon. I doubt anyone here in the USA will carry the hat. It will probably have to retail for over 400USD. -
