Received these two Borso twins today... Marque Grand Luxe 5X, 2.5" brim, both size 7. One fits perfectly, the other just a wee bit tight. Will see how it feels after a (much needed) haircut. The hats are marked Firenze on the sweat, but came in Marshall Field's boxes with a sale receipt from 1956. They've been living in Arizona for some time - the shellac(?) on the reeding is somewhat brittle on the gray hat and was half flaked off on the brown one. Seemed messy to me, so I removed the rest carefully with my fingernail. Soft and thick felt with a lovely velour finish.

Well, I went on a hat buying spree this month. So many good buys on Ebay, so I couldn't pass them up. Heres some pics:

Got my second hat. It's an Akubra Federation IV (not the deluxe) in Moonstone. It's a little loose and I hope that it will shrink with a little wear and heat.

Also pictured is my Fed IV Deluxe, Indy with LC Bash. First is the hat out of the box followed by a wet bash using a spray bottle and distilled water. It dried overnight. I used JtL's Teardrop Workshop to bash this new hat. Thnaks for making that JtL!
