Stefan, your powers have played a little joke on you. The Morreton had been on the market for some time, but being a small size (unspecified on the ad), no one seemed interested. I hoped for a "decent" size knowing I was lying to myself. It is ready to travel to the Netherlands ;)- Daniele Tanto

Not at all. Sorry Marcel. It seems to me it is a pre War hat, made by one of the thousands hatters in activity here. A very elegant hat- Daniele Tanto

Marcel, I agree with you halfway. The felt is certainly Cappellificio Cervo, the modern finish (Panizza) is a little lackluster, however the color and finish are excellent- Daniele Tanto

Optimo south side mobsters
Brent, I think you can have two great hats with a little work and a few choices that are closer to your taste. These are hats that appear to be made to be changed over the course of their existence. I am very curious to see the final result- Daniele Tanto

BARBISIO Brothers
Fourth and last purchase which concludes the acquisitions service for winter-spring 2022. This too was bought for the color and also because I really like the Barbisio production. Barbisio size 60 or 7 1/2 in the USA in one color. The felt is soft and light, called as "Arno" the river that...- Daniele Tanto

The BORSALINO BROTHERHOOD
I bought this Borsalino because it was the first one I saw in this configuration. Then the size was the right one, perhaps with a little luck. So alas it seems not to be. Borsalino Antica Casa - Augusta size 6 (french point) or 59 centimeters which becomes a 7 3/8 in the US. A little tight...- Daniele Tanto

I absolutely agree with you. I have a doubt? Who made the hats for Guerra 1855? May be Panizza? I see that now they came fron Tuscany as the actual Panizza- Daniele Tanto

I confess that I have let go of a lot of bowler hats in this period, I hope not to sadden FL friends in love with this hat. Some were interesting, but the often small size or the exaggerated price kept me away from them. This bowler hat has two features that attracted me. It is a G.B...- Daniele Tanto
