the hatter
This man was the magician who made my hat. He is an extraordinary and nice man. He begun to work in 1934 with his father and now he works with his son. They have an incredible collection with hats used by argentinian characters. He knows the story about all hatters in Buenos...
the felt
some hatters in buenos aires have vintage felt for special customers... Is a little bit expensive.
The hatter is Sala. They have a store on they house. The owner is a hatter since 1934. A living enciclopedia.
This hat was made with a felt bell from 40s. The edge and the brim is made in silk gross from 60s. The sweatband is made with Argentine leather and the interior with french satin.

Argentina was the first felt maker in the world.
You can find in Buenos Aires the following hatters:
1¬? Lagomarsino: Tucuman 2334 (once) they have a very bad attention but a good felt.
2¬? Maidana: Rivadavia 1923 (congreso) they have a good attention and a good felt. You can talk with the...
Many people ask me to wear my hats.
Also there is much people who make mockery of but soon they want to wear the hat.
I believe it is a repressed desire in people. Much people feel shame to wear a hat because the others.
I agree with Matt, “The Untouchables” was my main influence to use...
Well, I love the tango and the chambergo. The classic tango is black or gray. I like sand color because is not a popular color. I think my fedora tango is unique.
The chambergo is my favorite. It was my first fedora and I think I made a good choice.
Both hats are new.
Sala is one of the best...
This is my complete collection.
I know is not a big collection but I feel proud of them.
What is the correct name for the Borsalino based hat?
Salud!!!
chocolate hat...
I bought a brown chocolate hat... I can wear it with any color and clothes style... looks great. I like the gray color but the dark brown works perfect to me.
Awesome
Vintage or not are amazing hats.
Most of my hats are new... because sometimes I can't find my size in a antiques stores and I like the model... my hatter hates me... but he wins money selling hats.
I love Borsalinos but I can't deny the Stetsons and Dobbs are very impressive hats...
I think Panamabob is right... I’m sorry Panamabob, I talked with no idea about your work. I hope you can forgive me. Now, I'm still angry with Nike.
The education is the most important help. Is a slow way but the best way of all.
"But, don't assume that the people whose pictures you have...
I will politicize.
“They create luxury items, but not in luxury.”
I agree with feltfan...
I’m living in Argentina.
I think Panamabob maybe don’t understand the Latinoamerica sad reality.
Panamabob, you do a great work and (maybe) you aren’t a bad person but the Espinals could...
Este chambergo es nuevo... tiene 5 meses.
Maidana aun existe. Tienen un local en Rivadavia 1923 en Capital Federal.
Podes comprar un chambergo en el color que quieras pero los populares son el negro, el gris claro y oscuro, el marron y el verde.
Los bailarines de tango lo usan por que es...
When I bought my first fedora was love at first sight. My chambergo (we call chambergo to fedoras with c crown) probably isn’t the best. I think the felt is weird beacuse is soft, light, but the color isn’t uniform. But I like wear it all time.
The hat is from Maidana, the brim was changed...
