What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?
Deep autumn is coming. The fog was almost near the hills this morning Shy sun in the middle of the day and so today we help Panos in his parade of antique hats. Thibet made in France sold by the "A. Meer" hat shop in Strasbourg in the thirties or maybe earlier, who knows. Felt is wool...- Daniele Tanto

What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?
Another day of changeable weather and another gray hat This time the Italian manufacturer is unknown because the brand under which it was marketed is very unlikely: Golden Star. The hat is well made and the felt is great, the color is a light gray with contrasting black ribbon with raw brims...- Daniele Tanto

What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?
Windy day with occasional rain. Leaden colors and I was lucky enough to make some commissions without rain. The hat that accompanied me is one of the most used Borsalinos I have in my collection. The felt is gorgeous, but the sweatband needs some care. It has a particularity that it has...- Daniele Tanto

What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?
Today the biggest difficulty was not getting rain on my head while taking pictures. As soon as I went out it started to rain, however I managed it even in the dark autumn afternoon light. One of the hats in my collection with weird colors to say the least. It looks black, in reality it is...- Daniele Tanto

For a hat that is too small there is one that is too large and this too had to be my size. The result of an exchange with my friend Stefan, it turned out to be too wide for my head despite being a 6 1/2 or 60 cm. It passed through the talented hands of Fleur and I asked her to change the...- Daniele Tanto

Today the rain raged from dawn to well beyond sunset, now a powerful wind has swept the clouds and the moon has appeared. The photos are from yesterday morning before the bad weather started. The Borsalino "Misto Stagno" with "Ossido" colored hatband accompanied me on a long tour among the...- Daniele Tanto

Thanks Eric for your nice words. I like to have hats restored, especially when they are interesting enough to have new life, certainly they don't always become hits, but I prefer to spend some money and bring quality hats back to life. The Borsalino "Brughiera" is very particular and is part of...- Daniele Tanto

It was bought for my personal collection even though it has a few rare moth bites that are not seen. I was fascinated by the color and its condition. The size was 6, therefore a 59cm which when it arrived turned out to be a perfect 58. Borsalino Qualità Extra Superiore nominally size 6 or 7...- Daniele Tanto

The BORSALINO BROTHERHOOD
Nice find and very interesting discovery, Stefan. At first glance it would seem younger than an eighty-year-old, but given the label it seems to belong to that period, provided that this is not one of Borsalino's magic capable of rejuvenating old felts with new shapes, perhaps left in the...- Daniele Tanto

Alan thanks. I can say Wow almost of each of your hats:) A very nice hat. I like the color, very well uniform all over the felt, and the shape, quite a cross over city and western hat. Alla fine dei commenti posso solo dire: E' un gran bel cappello Si, they are in the same place of the...- Daniele Tanto

Beautiful day with temperatures outside the norm, especially in the middle of the day. Stroll up to the office with a close friend who has worked as a graphic designer for many years. She was one of the best of our generation. This unusual Borsalino accompanied me between red and yellow...- Daniele Tanto

Egregio Signore, thank you for your kind words and don't waste a kidney on some Borsalinos that have a bargain price ;) I am glad you appreciate this lot which are a "popular" production, if ever there was one, by Borsalino, as they are less expensive hats than other products in those years...- Daniele Tanto

Today was a wonderful day to photograph felts. Overcast sky and total clarity. I thought of a purchase many years ago, in reality my first lot almost entirely made up of Borsalino which were sold on the stalls in Turin and its surroundings. This was the first one I had restored by the...- Daniele Tanto

To be fair and give all possible information, here is the continuation of the presentation of the three Borsalinos Borsalino "Noce-Walnut" Qualità Extra Superiore was probably used, but from the lining and sweatband it seems to have made very few trips on someone's head Borsalino Qualità...- Daniele Tanto

Today I introduce you to the Borsalino range sold in Italy in the 60s and 70s. None of the hats presented and made in Alessandria have a glued lining, they are all with a sewn lining, therefore they are still in the era of classic production. They are children of their time. Borsalino Qualità...- Daniele Tanto
