It seems the majority of my recent hat aquisitions have come from Ohio. Perhaps the hat gods are preparing me for a visit in July.like everything else in Ohio - a little rough around the edges, but cleans up nicely.

That is one of the most impressive Borso crowns I have seen.Thanks very much! I am very happy with this hat. The form is older than its years - the crown is higher and less tapered than most of the 1950s Borsalinos that I have found. Will definitely not be going back in that little box.
Got a Q for your Borsalino mavens. Summer, the Dreaded Summer, will be here in The Swamp before I know it, and I have to think about a nice straw. There's this at Bencraft: http://www.bencrafthats.com/product.php?pid=480&subcname=Straw+Hats
Has anyone ever bought one of these? I like a good forebrim swoop -- is the brim on a Panama shapeable with a little water?
Size tag as all three major systems. Selller listed at as a 7 to 7 1/2. I figured out what was going on and made him a offer before all the other big heads saw it.

The from the looks of it Borsalino Continental Homburg that I won on ebay came today. The wind cord is a little streached out. Anyway to fix that or do I have to replace it? Jeff
