Hi all,
I was in the Cincinnati area recently and bought a Borsalino fedora from Batsakes. If I'd been in town longer I would've ordered a Gus Miller hat but being the impatient one I wanted a hat rightaway. It was my first time being in a real hat shop so I was pretty excited.
Anyway, I think this Borsalino is great but I did have some reservations before buying it simply because of all the talk here about them being of poorer quality than the vintage ones. What should I expect from this hat? It is raining out now. What should I expect if I wear this hat out in the rain? Will it hold up at all? I certainly hope that the color doesn't run.
Thanks
