    The Borsalino Bellini

    I'm resurrecting this thread to report. I got the Borsalino Bellini, instead of the hooker, and I love it. The hooker would have been nice in a moment of madness but... A good hat will last longer than I can these days. 53 years Young today. It's been a wonderful day. :D

    Reworked Borsalino

    Looks nice. I would have preferred the wider brim but... What did it start out as (width wise) and what did you trim it to? And how much more height did you get?

    Hat proportions in 1938

    I have seen some stingy brims in really old films. I guess it's always been a matter of preference and not determined by the fashionistas.

    Am I Alone on this one ???

    That is a great question. I guess we are reaching that Extension of Ourselves. I don't think my hat's define me but... I can see where some people may think that.

    Jaxon Bogart

    The Jaxon's are TOUGH Hats. I have one that I tried to shrink for a buddy. Bad experimnet. It's my stingy brim now. Not one of my favorites but I respect how tough it is. You can drive over those things w/ the 18 wheeler, back up and do it again...and it will pop back. TOUGH Hats

    Am I Alone on this one ???

    Those of us seldom seem without a hat ??? Prolly all do. :D And to expand a bit... I kinda feel naked without a hat anymore. And I've only been wearing them for about a year and a half.

    Panamas Biz / Robert Weber - Very bad experience

    Panamabob: You are one hell of a standup man. Your explanation says it all so well... Most of us have known that for some time. We should leave this thread rest.

    Help me I'm drowning! In Hats!

    I strategically stack them on the back of a hidabed, against the wall. Trust me. There is a way to do it right. Just don't put flimsy straws on the bottom. :D It can help shape crowns for taper. I don't care who wants to believe or not. Works for me. :D

    How do you apply your brimmed hat?

    I hate to say it but... I'm a pincher too. :D

    Panamas Biz / Robert Weber - Very bad experience

    From my own personal experience... Some folks just don't know how to take care of hats. Those I've recieved from Panamabob are excellent hats, including the cheapest.
