The other day I was lamenting that I had no Borsalinos.

To shut up my whining, Bruno took it upon himself to send me this lovely Mirtillo homburg. It kills two birds: Borsalino and blue homburg.

From perusing Borsalino Brotherhood, it appears the label indicates a vintage of around 1950. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

It's a couple weeks from my birthday. This is my main present. Becca was sweet enough to let me open it early.

Oh...

A very Merry Saturday to all.
That is a stunning homburg. The color is so inky blue, covet. I really love the feel of nutria on my Barbiso, how is the hand on this Borsalino? I find the nutria to be different in many ways from my finest Beaver. Hail to the big rodents!!

Yeah... And folks weren't so damned uptight.

Here's to the millennials and their rebels, their freaks, there weirdos and their ones who refuse to let themselves be defined by the culture.

I hope that they can make the late 2010s and 2020s make the 1960s look like the 1950s.
This is an interesting look at history of the past and coming decades. You are deep my friend...

Great flat cap. Love the colors and pattern. Pilgrim as in your felt? I have a Pilgrim tie, sounds like I need to do some reading.
I like it. I'm pretty sure it's the same Pilgrim as my felt. The script is different, but the style in the logo is the same. It has a leather sweat and lining only on the top part. Now it's time to see if it will stay on my head while biking.

Hi everyone, hope you're enjoying your weekends.
I'm getting ready to leave for a sound check for my jazz group's CD release show tonight. Excited to be part of this kind of creative project. It's been many years since I've done something like this. So far, its falcon park black cherry.

Beautiful color Daniele. That hat is a real chameleon! Hope your Saturday was a good one.

Super looking black cherry, can this be considered a "Lords hat"? Hope the CD release is a big success tonight! Maybe some of us here on the lounge would like one...hint hint!

I snagged the link just in case. I may have been a bad influence on you.
