Beautiful day like any other this week. Cold night and day gives us a blazing sun.

Today I had time to brush up on a Borsalino I wore once, maybe. It comes from the shop of "Matthias Hutter" in Merano and was brought to Verona a few years ago

Borsalino Qualità Victoria, size is 7 so a 61 cm. in EU and a 7 3/4 US, but it is a real 7 1/2

Felt color is "Aureola" (Aureole) and the ribbon is "Bulgaro". The felt is thick and malleable, the brim are curled in tone with the felt and the ribbon is brown, in contrast with the pale yellow of the felt.

I can say, with joy, that today I discovered this Borsalino arrived in a new old stock and for my short-sightedness remained all too closed in the closet:rolleyes:
I thank everyone for the comments and I congratulate you most warmly on the magnificent hats that every day you pull from every part of the world. Congratulations!


That’s one of the more beautiful hats I’ve seen recently, Daniele. Everything just works together.

Thanks Stefan! A few years ago I asked the question about this hat. It has no label or stamp but @Daniele Tanto helped identify the model.
Click on @Daniele Tanto thread above, there are a few pics of the hat and the liner.
I had two "Icaro" both used, one I sold because too tight and the other is unusable and does not deserve to be restored, too eaten by moths. The model is still present in the Borsalino catalogue and the price is in the medium high range. The felt of both those in my possession was extremely light and very malleable. It is a hat in the tradition of those to wear with medium temperatures, built in the tradition of impalpable Borsalino felt, light as a straw hat.

A couple of head-turners there. Love them both.

Allright, we'll give you this round:)
The brim curl on the Hornskov is very well done; nice and even.
On second thoughts, if you, @Steve1857 and anyone else could continue to throw the compliments at Etsuko when she wears her Hornskov, it would be much appreciated. It’s got her keen to get another one, and if she gets one, you know who else is getting one!:rolleyes::D

Get those new Hornskovs. You look good, Etsuko-san looks good, better even. It's win win for both of you, Gary :)
