Only the Real Borsalino Hat carries the Trademark "Echter Borsalino"

Great find, Steve. That has a lovely shape to it. I like the brim flange especially.

My Stetson Florentine Milan on this hot day. As per the discussion above, yes, these are definitely synthetic. Not cool but not too hot to wear.

Enjoy.

Almost bought that same hat, just did not have my size. Actually the solid tan Stetson milan MX I did get is a full size smaller than what I normally wear. The sizes seemed to run funny in this model.

Watching Mexico vs Germany in the World Cup. There is a great difference in the quality of play between the German and Mexican teams. There is real danger every time Germany attacks. Mexico just fizzles.

I don't know why I even watch these things. I get really nervous. I am using my Optimo Silverbelly as a security blanket.

I noticed this too when trying them on in Chicago at a hat store. The one I bought is in my size and fits perfectly, but others marked my size did not.

I had to go down to the living room. But there were fresh croissants waiting [emoji3]
I know it's father's day in Mexico. I didn't know it was also father's day in Europe. Is it also father's day in the US?
I got hot cakes in bed for breakfast. :)
