    Wow, thank you so much for the detailed answers. So I guess it wasn’t a bad investment for 60 Euros. :)

    Thank you for your replies. There’s only one label under the sweatband.

    It was sold in a Borsalino shop in Rue de Grenelle, Paris. I took some photos of the label, but it doesn’t mention what animal it was.

    No, I can only find the material of the lining. I was just a bit surprised by the original price of 650€ - okay, it was bought in Paris, but 650€ for a more or less „standard Borsalino“ seems to be a lot.

    Thank you! Do you have any idea what material the felt might be? Is it rabbit hair? Hard to tell through the photos I guess... :)

    Thanks for the helpful replies! I really like the color of the hat. It‘s a very nice light blue - the pictures don‘t cover that exactly as it seems to be more grey as it is in reality. I‘ll add two more pictures from tue inside of the hat.

    Hi, I bought this hat for 120€. It’s not new, but has never been worn. I got a receipt that says it was 650€ new. I couldn’t find any infos regarding the felt or anything else. Does anybody know something about this Borsalino?

    Hat Stiffener ?

    Hey guys. I'll ask my question in this old thread.. May I use hat stiffener on fur felt hats? This might be not the smartest question on earth but i don't wanna do something wrong. I have a nice fur felt hat that has no stiffness on some parts. I steamed it but it always loses it's shape after...

    Why are you that confused, Sir?

    When the hat grows and I'm wearing it, it's like I have a huge head. So basically everyone thinks that I'm that tall.

    I bought it as a hat for my living room. :)

    Thanks. That's great. I always wanted to be 8'6.

    Thanks. But what exactly do you mean by fertilizing the hat?

    Thanks guys! Yeah, i won't wear that hat on rainy days. :) I heard that sunlight isn't that good either; but i can wear it without any problems on hot summer days, I guess? That's just an advice for the storage? How often should the hat be sprayed with some water? Edit:

    Cheers! I got a new Borsalino Panama hat (will post some pictures on the weekend). Since it's my first Panama, i wonder how i take care of this nice hat? What's best for Panama hats?

    Sorry to disappoint you... the crown isn't very special. It was a wrong angle I guess. It's a normal Fedora.

    Okay, so it seems that I can leave the hat as it is. I read that somewhere, too - but the hats I have were very expensive so i just wanted to be sure before I have some trouble with them.

    Haha, wrong word? Thought it means also waterproofed.

    Maybe this seems to be a stupid question for some of you "old" hat folks, but after I bought my second Borsalino online and the website recommended some impregnation spray i was a bit confused. You don't have to impregnate a fur felt hat since it's naturally impregnated, or am I wrong?
