Gray and cold day.
I went to a bookbinding of the old town to pick up a couple of containers for photographs.

Borsalino in its endless production placed different interpretations of the elegant dress hat

This of today, Borsalino Qualità Extra Superiore, it is a very simple hat and I think I had never shown

Without lining is an exceptional felt for quality and smoothness.
It struggles to keep the bash

The proportions are those of a medium Borsalino. Raw brim at 5,5 cm and crown at 12 cm with a low ribbon

Color is "Stagno" and ribbon color is "Ossido".
It is a comfortable hat and extremely versatile

The Qualità Superiore of yesterday meets your likes. A huge thank
Pretty hat, Daniele. I like the raw brim.
For some bizarre reason the first thought that popped into my head when I saw the close-up texture was "bunny!". Guess because it looks as soft as one.

Enjoy your day, my friend.

Thank Matt
I will do my best to enjoy my afternoon and evening!
Yes the Borsalino felt is bunny or lapin or rabbit.
It is very soft and a right example how many variations Giuseppe Borsalino and Co made during the years with the dress hats

I'm ready to pack up the last box of straws for the winter, but couldn't resist the opportunity.

Michael, if you are half as cool as you dress, you must be one cool cat.

Great looking hat. Hell... Great looking everything!

Doode, I'm so boring I bring tears to my own eyes.

I couldn't let that one get away when I saw it yesterday.

That is one fine Knox and jacket combo you are wearing today.

I'm wearing a mistake in judgment today. I write that because I believe that this hat is what I recall being the first hat that I ever bid for on eBay. There have been many others since.

Sometimes, I wonder if all the money I have spent on hats could have been better spent on my family or an addiction to drinking... gambling... or perhaps some new-fangled designer drug. But then I remember... NO... no... the BESTEST addiction there is IS hats. And my family loves me and knows that hats make me happy.

And then... I am at peace. [emoji6]

Knox Premier Fifth Avenue. Raw brim. Too many pictures, 'cause I dig the sunlight on the ribbon. Yes... I'm a dork.
