That will get you into any show you want, Panos. Splendid hat!I know I said I'll keep the velours out, but with so many great ones shown recently, I thought I should join the party! It needs to be black though:

More on the way...the European hat carousel is very HOT at the moment
Does that count for the black-series and buy me the entrance to the velour show?
I can see why. Eye catching, indeed. Love it, Steve
They could certainly give Borsalino a run for their money and their variety is mindboggling. Very nice, Steve (even if it is green).
I'd say that's a keeper. Lovely hat.
Great pic, Matt. Outstanding outfits for both of you.
If this is a hat heist in the making: I'm in!
I think it is. The original Fu Lazzaro is very hard to find. I think Borsalino had two versions of some models on the market, one under the regular Borsalino brand name and one under the Borsalino fu Lazzaro brand name. I think the Savoy is another example of this. I've only seen this liner in their Canadian licensed hats (note the "di" instead of "fu"). View attachment 382818 View attachment 382819

Stefan, Thank you! The cold weather finally gave me a chance to wear it.Glad to see the hat made it in the end (not all of them do). Would have been a shame if such a fine hat had been lost. The bow is incredible.
Stetson Custom V again today.
