Post New Hats Here!
Thank you very much! My impression about this Bantam is very similar to yours and this was the will of the Italian hattery to give a twist to the tastes of its numeous buyers. It didn't succeed, but it left us these "fancy hats" :)- Daniele Tanto

Italian brands hats
I agree with you Stefan on the subtle qualities of the "Oklahoma" Bantam, but the one in the "Polynesia" color is one of the most daring Italian hats of the period when Italian hattery were on the road to decline. Many "Bantams" seem to have "The Fantasy in Power". This said in a very...- Daniele Tanto

BARBISIO Brothers
The Barbisio production was of the highest quality until the end of their activity (1981) and the Cervo hat factory also distinguished itself in production of the brand until the 2000s, then something got lost. Super Barbisio Extra Lusso size 6 or 59 cm. in the US it is a 7 3/8. The production...- Daniele Tanto

A quartet of the king's musketeers arrives directly from Paris in the Netherlands. Bravissimo Stefan! Magnificent and dated find. What else do you want? :) A small note: seeing the Mossant paper labels and the printed dating I have some chance of backdating some of my French collection. Very...- Daniele Tanto

Thanks Steve. The Soleil Velour is really fine and the color too. I waited so long to find a decent Panizza velour Thanks Stefan. The karma is on its way this year for hats, for the rest hope it will find its way Thanks Alan. It will be part of the collection of Italian velour hats, not so wide- Daniele Tanto

In my little resistance to the proposals of the market, some new elements of the immense family of Borsalino production are added every now and then. Borsalino Antica Casa size 58 cm. so a 7 1/4 US which has a particular heathered felt. It belongs to the large "Misti" family, that is fur and...- Daniele Tanto
