I show a hat for all those who have questions or doubts about Borsalino quality

The hat I'm wearing is forty years old, we are at the end of the management of the historic Borsalino family.
View attachment 399277 Borsalino Qualità Extra Extra Superiore size 6 1/2 or 60 cm. or 7 1/2 US.

The color is "Morello" and the felt is what you see in the photograph with a very light hair that makes it shine as soon as a light, even a faint one, hits it.

It is black or a very deep blue, you can see it in contrast to the jacket I'm wearing.
The ribbon is black so you see the little contrast and the shapes are the classic ones between the seventies and eighties of Borsalino in the hats sold in Italy.

It is a hat of particular beauty, at least in my opinion, for the color that is fantastic and for the finish of the felt that enhances it.
This is a wonderful Borsalino of "decadence";)
Beautiful Color! Looks deep blue to me. I am jealous LOL

That's just beautiful, Terry
Thank you Max!
I was a little bummed out, though, that I wasn't able to save the brim binding to put back on the hat. It just didn't seem to look right to me raw edged with the 3 ply thin ribbon. I was glad when carouselvic posted the pic of his No. #1 Stetson that was similar to my conversion. It made me feel better about mine.
