What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

NO "Stingymass" on this Bailey "Poet" I am wearing today with it's 3 1/4" brim.

Another fur hat, and like the previous French one, it's a "Misto" (mixed).

Borsalino size 6, or 7 3/8 in the US. No quality markings. Rare to see, probably made in 1982.

The felt is marked "Misto Magma" and the hatband is "Talpa" (Mole).
That was the first period of Borsalino's new management after the Borsalino heirs sold the company to two families from Asti, if I remember correctly.

The felt is fantastic, as is the hat's finish. The color is a mix of gray with subtle shades of light brown. The hatband matches the felt.

Thank you for your likes and appreciation, which I heartily reciprocate.
Quite lovely

Very nice, Joe; love the color!

For StingyMas today, it was my Champ Kasmir Finish Portly Lyric, that I believe to be a late 1950s hat. 1 & 7/8" bound brim, and a crown that's 4" at the front crush, and 4.25" at the sides.

Thanks Mark. Love the Lyric as well.


Another Stefan stingy Barbisio.
