Just won this Borso last night. Despite only two other bidders I paid a bit more than I wanted, but could not pass. It is the first unlined and perforated Borso I have seen. After seeing some fellow members photos and comments about the lightweight Stetsons with similar diamond pattern perforations on the crowd I had to give this one a go.

I'm feeling pretty confident, knock on wood, about this one. The seller was kind enough to include detailed photos of the few moth bites on the underside of the brim and to have provided a good description, etc.

Man, that is a beautiful hat. I was very tempted to bid on it but I was nervous it would be too small. I am very sure you are going to love it. Great score:eusa_clap :eusa_clap

Absolutely beautiful. I'd been watching that one, but I think it would have been too small for me.

I love the perforation on the crown.

I was about to bid on that one. I really like the look of the crown shape.

Have fun with it!
