The BORSALINO BROTHERHOOD
I see your point. 98% of my lids are Borsalino. But I went ahead and deleted my entries. -
What hat are you waiting for today?
I went to the Garland Outlet twice in the past two months and was disappointed. If you love cowboy hats, you have a good selection. But I hardly found anything in a 7 3/8 and what I did find was pretty cheap looking. But I have heard others have good success. -
What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?
You wear a hat very well and dress accordingly. My youngest son is married to a Japanese lady and has lived in Sendai for about eight years. -

One of my newest from MiamaBruno: a 1950s Borsalino Augusta with a 2 1/8" brim and Cavanaugh edge, 7 3/8 perfect fit. really like a 2 1/8" brim. -

The BORSALINO BROTHERHOOD
Just received my earliest Borsalino Trionfo 2 1/2 inch brim. White tag indicates made between 1936-1953. I think I have a new favorite and my size 7 3/8 perfect fit at that. -
Post New Hats Here!
I saw that a few days ago for a really great price. In my investigation, I saw in an add in Japan with the same label but with Borsalino written where Seyata is on this liner. It looked like it was made for the Orthodox Jews. So it appears this is a Borsalino from what I could find. -
The BORSALINO BROTHERHOOD
Thanks for this information. That helps explain the look that seems a bit different than most. I wonder how they got the edges to lay flat. Also, the one you picked up is very nice. -
The BORSALINO BROTHERHOOD
As you know ~90% of the time when these treasures come available they are for sizes 7 1/4 and under, so when I saw one my size 7 1/2 that fits like a 7 3/8, I jumped on it as soon as I could--LOL. I have three with labels that indicate made between 1954-1965, but nothing earlier with Borsalino... -
The BORSALINO BROTHERHOOD
I keep seeing you guys with vintage Borsalinos with white tags with Borsalino written across the tag indicating from the years 1936-1953 and I kept wondering where you find them. Tonight one popped up on auction just as I was looking, so I bought it. Here are some photos. -

What did you do to restore the hat? It looks good. You did a great job. -

[QUOTE="Norm DePlume, You have a great way to expressing yourself. I have learned so much the past two months, read many posts at Fedora Lounge, learned about sizing, quality, etc. Lots of mistakes, hits and misses. I am learning what I like and dislike. Welcome to the club. It is a bit... -

Anyone know anything about a Centurion Borsalino? I have never heard of it. Here are the photos. -
BARBISIO Brothers
The Ebay seller ignored my request for a return the hat after I explained the hat is not as described and included 4 photos where moths had bit into the felt that was not described. Then the guy blocked me from writing him. But thankfully Ebay saw the photos and voted n my favor for a return and... -

in looking at vintage Borsalinos, is the Augusta and/or Trionfo lesser quality than the Qualita Superiore? Thanks -

What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?
I wanted a Panama hat, so saw the sale at JJ Hat Center and picked up a Pessaro grade 8, retails at $225 on sale at $112. But since the photo did not include a straight on view, I didn't realize it was quite tapered, not my style. So I bought an Optimo style at Levines Hat Co. on sale at $83. It... -

The Shoe, what differences do you notice between the 1960 Stylemaster and the recent ones? Is the quality any different? Thanks -

BARBISIO Brothers
The Barbisio arrived. It looks ok on the surface, but, in my opinion, it is very low quality, not even close to the description. Luckily, though the guy doesn't accept returns, I found four insect bites in the crown that were not mentioned, so filed a request to return. I would never wear this... -
BARBISIO Brothers
Brent, I appreciate your good advice. What had happened is he had it listed as made in Italy and from the 1950s. After I told him what I found out, he thanked me and immediately changed to remove Italy and put date unknown. I think right in the middle of all this I had an offer of $150 of his...
