nice hat, damian. here's my new borsalino in lana, wool, and silk:

 

[GregNYC]

Konadog, I like it! I don't have a Borsalino (I might try some of their summer offerings), but I have some tweed Dorias - I heard made at the same factory that Borsalino uses for their caps. Some of the best retail caps I've seen!

 

[Stuffsmith]

Nice one, konadog!

Will the artisans stop making such nice stuff, please???? I have neither the cash nor the closet space for all of the items I want.

Actually, keep it up. I could stand to rotate some items out of the closet. However, I *still* need to figure out the cash problem.
