To be fair: you're getting more wear than this hat has had.Thanks Stefan. It's in excellent shape for its age. Hope I look as good when over 80

The third of the three hats I recently bought from Daniele. Barbisio Qualitá Extra. I fell for this one as soon as I saw Daniele's photos of it. As he takes much better photos than me, I've attached a link below. You can also read Daniele's description of it.
Needless to say, I'm so pleased with this bold and elegant hat.

Yesterday was a first for me, a two hat day. I bought them at seperate times but they both showed up today. First is my new vintage Stetson 3x Beaver, beautiful felt, it does have a couple little tiny rough spots. The liner is beautiful too though.
The next is an Akubra Mexican, the brim on this is a quite large 3 5/8. It arrived kinda mashed and needs some steam and the crown rebashed. But it's not like any other hat I have.

Heck of a hat Greg!
Thank you.
Two nice catches. Two very different styles. Eclectic is the way to go with a hat collection.
Congrats PNW.

Thank you! It is always fun to get new hats, my parents were in town this weekend and my dad liked the Akubra and has never had a fur felt hat before so I gifted the Akubra to him. He looked better in it anyways.
Gorgeous looking hat, Greg. I wonder if the stain wouldn't go out with just water.

I'm not normally a big fan of western hats, they're just not my thing. But every once in a while one comes along that catches my attention, and that hat right there is the one for today. Great shape, and it suits you right down to the ground Bama!

When it appeared on the market, I checked my conscience, asking myself: how many black velour hats did you have in your hands without them being your size?
I was, however, attracted to a black velour hat made by a Milanese hatter I had never heard of.
Usually these are hats that were produced in Central Europe. This is a rarity because it has a very dense and well woven felt (probably sourced from Central Europe market) and a first-rate craftsmanship.
No other indication other than a mark that I saw in a couple of hats found in Mantua "Qualità Extra" printed in gold on a sweatband with bas-relief inserts.
The internal measurements of this "Gran Lusso - lavorazione speciale a mano - Facchini - Milano" are 19x16.4 which corresponds to a size of approximately 56 cm.
As you see the lining is sewed with the sweatband, this is the first time I see this finish on an Italian hat from the Twenty or Thirty
The measurements of this beauty are: raw brim at 5.5cm, the ribbon is 5cm high. and the crown at its lowest point is 10.5 cm.
For those who want to take it home, just write to me in private
