I think it`s new, as I have`nt hit it in my searches...looks like a rebirth of the company, at least in a new range, including classics...

Any ideas where you can buy these, and whether the listed New York based agent has stock? [On second look, that seems to be an advertising agent?]

RLK posted this link a month or so ago. He might have some additional info.

Ah, apologies - please delete it if it is a double...or I`ll zap it tomorrow

It was in the middle of some other thread so probably over looked so worthy of a separate thread. I am also very interested in additional info.

I mentioned it a couple of weeks ago in the Barbisio Brothers Thread but I do not know if anyone is selling them in North America(or Asia). I would suggest trying their email contact. I do have a couple of the Cervo/Barbisio hats but I obtained them from Italy.

Barbisio is Cervo, Cappellaria Cervo in Biella Italy owns the Barbisio name and use it now for their product. Cervo has never been very with it on internet stuff hence the fact that the winter hats have no links.

Be patient ,fedora fans. There will be Cervo hats here in the USA in the fall. The selection will be small in the beginning . If sales increase, then more stores will carry them.
i believe that the hats will carry the Cervo name ,not Barbisio. there is a legal matter that needs to be settled first.

I emailed them to find out where to buy in Milano or Roma since I'm going there in October. The message bounced back as the address being non-existent message. [huh]

Right now the Barbisio operation here is a two person operation. I believe you will see more advertisements in the fall for the hats once the stores receive them.

Any knowledge yet about their quality and price range this go-around?

Barbisio crea cappelli che sono il fiore all'occhiello della produzione mondiale. Aziende come questa, che rappresentano una ricchezza per l'intero patrimonio industriale italiano, meritano di essere promosse e valorizzate attraverso corrette strategie di sviluppo , incentrate su tradizione , qualità e dinamicità imprenditoriale".

A friend got me one from the factory store thinking she would get me the real deal when in fact I ended up with a Barbisio you would use in the farmyard. I suspect they were all 'thirds' not even 'seconds' from the look of the poorly made felt.

I've posted about South Street Hats many times here. You can do a search and find plenty of information:

South Street Hats
C/O Oscar Pierce
810 South Street
Philadelphia, PA 19147
1-215-829-1600

Ask for Oscar. He has boxes of Cervo/Barbisio hats that he hasn't even opened yet.

I've been to Melegari and Mutinelli and, 2 years ago they didn't sell Barbisio. I'll try this time around. I think Troncarelli in Roma does. Thanks for the links, Robert. I'm just plain bad at google.
