Got a few hats (vintage Borsalino) that need to be cleaned. Optimo Hat Co. will only clean hats they made for me. I'm looking for someone that's good in the Chicago area?
Thanks,
Trying to get a replacement bow ribbon? My original Borsalino bow ribbon was destroyed doing cleaning many years ago. I need a black grosgrain bow ribbon (w/ Borsalino name on the bow) to fit a 7 3/8 fedora.

need to replace a Borsalino black grosgrain ribbon hat band?
I trying to find a Borsalino black grosgrain ribbon hat band to replace a hat band that was destroyed during cleaning. I need one with "Borsalino" on the band.
Thanks for any info,
Your hat looks great. A few years I ran into a few guys that work for Steve Harvey. They were wearing straw cowboy hats that were reblocked with the teardrop block.
I need some help, my panama has no snap in the brim. It's about 4 years old. I have another panama (both from PanamaBob) the same age, it still has a firm brim.
Thanks,
Nobby Custom Tailors
Nobby's is a custom tailoring shop in downtown Cincinnati (14 W. 7th St.). They do very good work at reasonable prices. They are located 1 block west of Batsake's hat store.
Saks also has a outlet store in Cincinnati.
Linen pants? Yes, you can wear them !!
I think the right color (off-white or ivory) in linen trousers would look great. Please don't wear the beret, unless it's a summer fabric. You need a panama fedora. And I think the jacket looks very nice.
PS. don't forget the brown/white spectator...
What do guys think about these?:

Thomas & More in Chicago
Thanks for the info. I got 2 hats in the 70's from Thomas & More in Chicago.
I forgot the exact year. But now I know it was 1977 and 78. That store on the southside has long been closed. I was married with 4 small kids, and I could not afford to pay full retail...
