I own a Cervo and love it, although it's quite worn out now and relegated to the closet. I bought it in 2001. Can you buy Cervos in the U.S.? I tried three years ago to find out, but failed.

Bencraft will carry Cervos? Is Bencraft going to carry Cervos starting in the fall?

I'm traveling next month to the sunny peninsula, to the Fedora mothership, and since I can no longer buy my beloved Cervos in the U.S., I thought I would look into buying a Cervo while I'm in Italy. Can anyone recommend good hat shops in Rome, Siena, and Florence? If you could give the...

Paul's Hat Works has been sold There was an interesting article in SF Chronicle today about Paul's Hat Works. Four young women have purchased the hat store from Paul and are trying to make a go of it. Good luck to them. It looks like they sell more than classic men's hats and are banking on...

I am always on the lookout for hats with slightly wider brims and slightly smaller crowns (like my cherished Cervo which is no longer sold in the USA). I'm very tall, so I don't need a tall crown making me look taller, and I need the wider brim to keep the sun off (I got introduced to hats by a...

Where are the Cervos, Part II? "Be patient my friend as Cervo Hats will hopefully be available here in the USa very soon." -- Besdor Are they here yet? I'm still trying to track down a hat shop in the USA that sells Cervos. Does a fella have to go to Italy to get one? I might have to...

Another Laphroaig fan I am also a Laphroaig (lu-froig) fan. My ancestors hail from the isle of Islay where all the great single malt scotch comes from. I like to imagine them drinking the stuff with their porridge and their haggis (yeck!). In our house, we toast the ancestors before...

It happened yesterday. After six or seven years of peace and tranquility. And it happened, of all places, at the polls. I was collecting my ballot when the kid manning the polling place said, "Nice Indiana Jones hat." I could've educated the youngster then and there. I could've told him that...

Thanks for the help everybody, but... Mrs. Dewson's on Fillmore Street in SF where I bought my Cervo five years ago no longer sells Cervos (I was in the shop two weeks ago). Fino and Fino in Menlo Park doesn't sell Cervos (I was there last week). The Cigar Afficionado article is ten...

Where can I buy a Cappellificio Cervo to replace the masterpiece I bought six years ago? It's getting a little ragged. I like Cervos better than Borsalinos, so please don't tell me to go that route. I've looked all over and can't find anywhere online or anywhere in San Francisco or Oakland...

Cervo Help Needed I have a fantastic Cervo hat. It has a stiff brim, which I like. Others on this thread have complained that their Cervos didn't hold up in the rain, but that isn't an issue with me, as I live in California where it doesn't rain often. My wife gave me the Cervo six years...
