A few small considerations on these hats happily donated to Stefan.
He has been and perhaps will be again, depending on our mutual addictions, my biggest hat exchanger in the FL universe.
The contacts between Veneto and the Netherlands have been fruitful and full of satisfaction for both of...
It is a really nice hat. Felt is a "Misto" (fur+wool) to obtain this texture with nap
Propaganda means promote or advertise, so it could be a sample hat sent to a distributor or a shop to show the quality of the Borsalino hats. The trademark in the crown is what make me think of this "use" of...

The companion of the Guerra 1855 in black
Brasiliano is sometimes associated with Borsalino, but in my opinion is a trademark which used subcontractors to put Italian hats on the market that covered sectors not coveted by large producers.
It's difficult to say who the real manufacturer is, but...
The market is always open with my sweet disappointment :)
A couple bought some weekd ago with bad pictures and a "special" offer of the seller
Guerra 1855. Color: Black. Size 59 but it is a 60 cm.

A very nice Borsalino. Stibina is a rarely used color found on the market.
One of the countless grays in the Borsalino range

Week without winners or losers. A remarkable parade of excellent hats
I would like someone in my size :)
Not vintage at all, but It was last Borsalino to have a real appeal. I was tempted in Venezia some year ago...It has a perfect combination of colours, very classic in Borsalino range, with a retrò shape and a good felt. Maybe one day
Rain forecast for the afternoon on this gray day.

Walk at sunset with imminent rain.

The cap belongs to my son. He left it at our house and I use it for some walks.
Have a...
