It is only mid November, so today at noon I wear this Borsalino sold in Hamburg - Germany

The proportions are the classic for EU market in the last decades
Brim at 5 cm. (2 inches) and crown at 11 cm. (4,33 inches)

Medium felt, very malleable with interesting shade of grey-blue
Wind trolley and the "Borsalino bow" with bounded brim in the same color of the ribbon

It was restored, with great attention, last year in Milan by Sergio Anzani - Cappelleria Melegari

The "lobbia in mirtillo" did great success. Thanks a lot
I love that shade of gray-blue (as you call it). I wish I could find something in that color!

Lots of rain... straight to Boy Scouts tonight after work... so I'm just taking the Outback oilskin hat. Less worry, less fuss, less anxiety when an unruly Scout decides my hat is a toy or a costume prop. :rolleyes:

MrsFed, mi esposa hermosa, is really liking her Cavanagh (and I still wish it was in my size, LOL).

Stetson 7X Clear Beaver Quality, mode edge non-western, ventilated crown. This hat was restored at Optimo. I've used pieces from the original sweatband for repairs and other projects. The back of the sweatband appears to have been used for scientific notation at some point. Originally purchased at the venerable Pantke-Harpke store in Milwaukee.
