John Penman at Penman Hats has made at least one hat for the new season.
I'll still watch.
How do we know this?

Whoa, Jim! Sorry to step on that. It is a great topic, especially for us, not so much for the general population.
My time here has been cut back lately, (temporarily) and I'm a slow reader, so I've been missing a lot!
John posts them on his instagramI'll still watch.

Most of his hats are in fact Borsalino hats. We sent the prodction company for the show a hat or two. From what I'm told, Mr Spader is very specific with his hat reqiurements.
I'm sure Optimo Hats has done some work for him.
Yes he is. When nbc contacted me, they said they contacted several other companies looking to replace the Borsalinos. Do to the fact he was no longer satisfied with the quality felt and finish. They had me make several hats for them for season 4 & for season 5.
I just started to watch the show. I’m at the beginning of season 2. They didn’t throw away his old Borsalinos (“replace” poor choice of words on my part). I know that as I had a couple of them sent to me. I had to send them back as they still wanted them. They just couldn’t add to them as Mr. Spader didn’t like what Borsalino was doing anymore so the costumer went on a search to see if they could get what MR Spader wanted. I had made several for them in different colors and of course they wanted them to look like the Borsalino.
I hope that helps

Has it changed so quickly because I’m considering buying a Borsalino

If you want one like he wears on the show, I offer them just like I made for the show and they sent me a couple of hats to replicate and believe me if I can make James Spader happy. It will be exactly like the show.
With the Borsalino tag on the ribbon ?
