Selentino....
This came today. Can anybody shed a little light on this one for me? It's called a "Selentino". I don't know too much about it. It's age orgin, don't even know if it's Italian made or not. I can tell you that the felt is very stiff though, and the sweat is leather, but not very thick....but soft, not like a Borso when it comes to felt, that's for sure. It is a sharp, clean hat though.
This is how it came out of the box, with your average wide center crease & side dents. I wasn't too fond of it so I steamed & changed the bash as you'll notice in the before & after pics...
Specs:Crown is 5", Brim is 2 1/8" (very snappy), Grosgrain is 1 1/2" w/ a wind trolley, and the sweat is 1 3/4". Camel color. Any help is appreciated, thanks for looking.
