That's a nice one. I do like those Borsalinos. Is it new or vintage? Brim size?DOUGLAS said:

I'll kill it some more.:arated: Beautifully finished and proportioned Borsalino. Must be another color from the metals on the periodic table Ruthenio o Palladio? Too light for Uranio. Nicely balanced shades in the Ensemble too.Lefty said:very, very nice. :eusa_clap

I like that size ribbon also. It's one of the reasons I like the Borsalino look. A thinner ribbon looks more modern to me, and is more wearable out there if you're not going for the "vintage hat" look. Does the nutria felt seem the same as other felt? I'm not sure I would be able to tell the difference between that and the standard rabbit fur felt.DOUGLAS said:Thanks gents. The ribbon is 1". I prefer this size of ribbon. The hat is Nutria. I am not certain of its age but it is made well. It has a 2-1/2" brim.
Both very nice and photogenic. Nice pictures. On your Panama--is it a fine Panama or straw; what's the make? I like the brim size on yours, actually on both. Ladies seem to look good in a lot of hats including that one, and the wide brim is very flattering.Lefty said:It's nice and hot here, so we went out for a picnic with our recent tag sale finds: an LL Bean Boat Tote (the heaviest canvas product I've ever handled), and a US made Stanley thermos. Panamas for both of us, my wife with a new scarf on hers.
