I see there are lots of lovely hats here today that I need to covet. Hopefully my internet will stay connected long enough for me to do that.

Have a great Friday all.

Great look Michael, love the ribbon on that Borsalino. You are one of the spiffy loungers I look forward to every morning!

That highlight on the bow really makes that hat special. More detail shots please.
Here's a closeup . . .

Lounger Bond sold it to me a couple of years ago. It was always a bit small, even though I tried to stretch it. At last I sent it off to Art, who resized it and put on a blue ribbon with his signature silver stripe!

Super sweet! Do you have any before pictures?
It just so happens I do:

Borsa_Savoy_6-7-8.JPG Borsa_Savoy_02.JPG

Borsa_Savoy_04.JPG

As you see, it came with a wind cord, but the darn thing never seemed to work right. I have one on my Stetson Royal De Luxe, and while I never use it, if it loosens I can tighten it with ease. Not so with this Borso. Eventually I trimmed it off.

I wanted a narrower ribbon, but Art pointed out that the felt above the ribbon had faded to a lighter shade than that behind the ribbon. So I went with the same size. The pics here make it look rather bluish, but it is a dark gray like Akubra's Carbon Grey.
