What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

Not a lightweight, but a Feather Weight. The cool (57'f) morning found me wearing a Borsolino Featherweight fedora. This morning I was out and about in a Borsolino Feather Weight felt. Truly light weight felt in the way of the vintage Borsolinos.

The pouncing is nearly perfect in the felt is even density and characteristics. The variegated material behind the leather sweat, in the front of the hat, makes it fit like a dream. It wears light on the head.. The ribbon has the original basting stitches. Lovely attributes to this light weight felt.

Best, Eric -
Fantastic Borsalino, Eric! The Qualitá Finissima is not seen that often.

I wasn't going to post this one I wore today. After seeing all the wonderful genuine Stetsons from you guys, I almost felt embarrassed about my "faux" English ca. 1960s (Manchester) made Imperial Stetson that I bought at the beginning of the summer.

However, though not a true Stetson, there's nothing to be embarrassed about a Manchester made hat. So here it is.

Works well with brim up or down, imo.

Wonderful, Steve. Failsworth done right by Stetson for sure.
