That's sooo true. I must admit, the blue Borso' is one hat that I rarely wear even though I love it. Last night I considered wearing it to a family Thanksgiving dinner gathering. It would have gone great with what I was wearing. Then I backed out. What if one of the kids gets ahold of it? What if gravy gets on it? What if....?
I wore one of my Whippets. Not that I don't value my old Whippets a lot, cause I do, but that shows you how much more protective I am about that blue Trinonfo.

HarpPlayerGene said:Some folks advise that handling a hat should be done carefully with both hands, one on each side of the brim.

this one has tears front and back, presumably from putting it on, that were repaired some time ago.
Started life in the '50s as a Brent Adventurer. It's certainly seen more than its fair share of adventuring from the looks of it.Swagman said:What was this when it started out? How long did it take to get in that great shape?

Ebay bad photo special that didn't turn out. It would have cost more to return it than to keep it, so I wear it places where I'd like a hat but know it'd get trashed.ScionPI2005 said:It looks to have had a full life. Where did you find that one, Dinerman?
warmentrout said:Carter refered to a clear nutria derby and a clear beaver western. What does "clear" refer to ?
