Echter Borsalino "Amiata" possibly late 1930s. Click to expand photos.

Super looking Borsalino Homburg, Steve. The pinches add texture and depth to the wonderful grey felt. The clear "Technicolor" colors on the liner look late 50s early 60s "Technicolor" to my untrained eye. A great Borsa whatever its vintage.

Steve, It might be early 1940s but this is an older one. It has the separate size stamp plus the overall construction and higher quality components. The condition is NOS. In the later 1950s you see Echter Borsalino + Export Qualität. As you moved into the early 1960s just Export Qualität.

Nice summer look, Stefan. All three hats look really cool, but that Penumbra is a very eye catching modern Panama. Fleur certainly knows her stuff. Nicely worn, too.

Thanks, Steve. I do hope Fleur is going to finish the hats she has on her shelf for me.

Very nice, Michael. That hat bridges the gap between formal and casual very well.
Thanks Stefan. I haven't had that one out for awhile. It's a good one for cooler summer mornings and evenings.

Spectacular in every way. Michael.
Thanks again.

All super looks. I like the Penumbra a lot. Looks like a fine weave. I like that blue suit, too.

Thanks,
Michael

I felt a little guilty about dissing old faithful's flange yesterday. In front of all these hat lovers?
Like I had nothing to do with it?

I gave her a little bit of a spa treatment, then took her for another spin 'round the block.

Later I wore that old thing from my days in the army.

That's a real jawdropper. Eric. Fantastic.

Thanks sir. It is very fun to wear this hat. I have to be careful not to wear it to an early demise.

You and hats are well turned out and today is exemplar. Hurrah!

I tip my hat your direction as you are truly first class polite in your responses to posters. Class act.

Stetson One-hundred. Tannish in color, the most accurate pics are those from the bar. Key hole tag with a dog bone crease.

I like the hat a lot. It piques my curiosity to source one sized for myself, a short bald fellow. Of course the bar pics are more accurate - when are not pics and opinions not better or more accurate than at a bar with a fav beverage. Thanks for sharing the hat.
