I really like that one too! Sweet!! What is the brim width out of curiousity?

K

Looks to be right at 2" wide which is a decently common brim width for the 1930s

What a great looking suit this morning. That Dobbs is a perfect topper for the ensemble. You should do something as important as you look today. Maybe run for Mayor?

Thanks Red. I am looking for something more along the sinecure line.

Great looking hat and perfect combination all round, Michael. Midweek style. Nice!

Out for errands in the late 1950s Dobbs Twenty with a guild edge (Cavanagh edge in Dobbs speak). A great go-to hat.

Love that whiskey felt color. I am working up a new design from Mike Miller at present, I'm thinking SB. This is a gorgeous hat!

Thanks, Mike. The hat is starting to grow on me.

This is one of the last sins, then I will become honest

Borsalino "Trionfo" size 6 or 59 cm. 7 3/8 US

Color is "Niobe" and the cinta (ribbon) is "Bulgaro"

The felt is green with brown nuances finished with a very soft and malleable short hair, the ribbon is brown

It was made in 1980 in the historic Borsalino factory in Alessandria

The proportions are those of the Italian hats of the time, medium brims and middle crown.
What I like is the iridescent shade of the highest quality felt
Grazie for the likes
Buon mercoledì!
PS for Stefan (Steur) did you ever know this Borsalino color?

That is a fine looking Twenty, Red. Looks like it could be close to the same color as my Sixteen Fifty.

Thanks,
Michael

Morning at work and an afternoon lunch meeting in a vintage Stetson Scoop. This hat has dynamite felt and appointments.

Forecasted weather has me wearing a cap for the afternoon and evening.

Faux Mink (visone), I think... but a nice old Borso nonetheless.

Thanks man. Good to hear from you. Hope all is well and healthy.

I'm good, thanks Bowen.

Sweet Adam Brent. Perfect lines and a great brim.


That Pimbell does have kind of a Cavanagh look inside. The sweat and bows show the quality of Cavs of the era.


Love everything about this one Justin. Interesting brand name and a fantastic long hair finish. Nice.


Just beautiful David. Great details.


That color is to die for Jim! The lighter contrast of that brim binding is sweet. Great people around here for sure.

Thanks Mike!
I have a late 50's Cav that is nearly identical to the Pimbell in look, color and weight/feel of the felt. Only differences are the Cav is 1/4" stingier and has the Cav bow fray.

[Woodtroll]

On the contrary, that hat looks very touchable! Maybe the church ladies will think so too!

Seriously, though, really nice hat, Bowen.

So you're the one who got that. I thought for sure it was mine. I take back all the bad thoughts I had. Oh well, congratulations. Maybe I'll get the next one.

This hat is inspiring Eric. The highlight at the bottom of the ribbon is understated, but the eye is drawn to it. I have been trying to decide on my next custom, and this style is high on my list of passions. I wonder how it would look in a Silver Belly?


The paper thin brim on this Borsalino is really something. I can see where it would be a dream to wear.


Doesn't look to rough to me, just beautiful!


That back bow spiffed up quite nicely. What I like about this style is they are easy to date in the latter 1950s. This one is a prime example. That homburg is just a delicious color and shape.


He has done that to me before, an all star enabler! I love the overall look of this French "Diplomatique". It is large and in charge!


I can see why she swooned over it Brent. Very impressive overall!


Too cute!! Not you, her... Your hat is OK too.


That organic crease is just incredible. Looks like a grab and perfect results. Wow Bowen.


Incredible images today Eric. Hats as well...

Thanks, Mike. The Knox and the Saks looked a bit splotchy and the brush didn't impress them. The steam did wonders though!

Very recent sin!

Borsalino Qualità Superiore size 7 or 61 cm. or 7 5/8. Fit with some little adjustment

Color is "Pomice" (Pumice) Made during the sixties

Felt is thin and very malleable. Matching ribbon. The combination felt and ribbon are what I liked most of this Borsalino!

It is one of the sins committed in Merano, one of the many Borsalino seen and reviewed, but never noticed and taken into consideration

Thanks for the likes on the grey "Bugey" Flechet
Have a nice day

Beautiful, Daniele. Would have been a bigger sin not to save it!

Out early this morning for a dog walk in a vintage Stetson Royal De Luxe St. Regis.

The navy blue hued felt is difficult to capture in the sparse morning light.

Best, Eric -

A St Regis in navy: now there's something for Santa's list!
