Benchcraft is a good source for a hat as they normally know their product and have good service to customers.

That’s my expirience I have been in contact and they have been very polite and helpful in findings by the right one in the right price range

I did get a sort of similar hat and I wear it every day just the brim I found is too wide and long that’s why I’m looking at a borso (now I just think borsa)

Now thats funny. I would figure you would want a wide brim for summer to protect yourself from the sun. Unless your from Scotland. Then you don't have to worry about sun, just rain.;)

From south England which is the same not much sun more rain

I like it but for winter just seems odd for summer

Stetson makes a very nice summer hat that is not a high price tag, the Stratoliner straw and it looks really nice. They are all over eBay for around $65.00 USD which is not a bank breaker by all means.

WAIT ONE MINUTE!!!!!!!
has someone been asking for hat advice on the fedora lounge and no one has suggested Akubra yet....? Man has this thread really gone off the rails here.
Now I have no idea how Borsalino sheds water but I have been wearing Akubra hats for 18 years now and they take the elements like a champ. Let me throw out some suggestions

Carbon grey is a fantastic colour that changes with the light. it goes from black in low light to dark grey with a hint of green in daylight. to almost dark blue with overcast skies.
Cheaper then your other options and very durable. A fantastic "close enough" hat......
half joking, half serious.
Wear you hat in good health

What does that mean? I guess no good deed goes unpunished.

mattmactimpson said he doesent wear the hat he currently owns because the brim is too wide for him. (he wants a shorter brim like Spader wears in the show)
LuvMyMan said Maybe someone here would buy it with that wide brim. So she is telling mattmactimpson to sell his currant hat to someone who likes wide brims.
