Thanks Stefan. I agree. I was looking at that when I had it sitting on the table. Some exquisite finishingThe ribbon is eyecatching, but just look at the way the brim is finished: magnificent!

Thank you, Joe.The 3X and the Cavanagh made My list as well.
Fantastic hats, all of them!This morning has been cold and I can wear a hat only when I pull my collar up. Early morning walkabout in a Royal DeLuxe Stetson OR.

A warm-up inside and I headed back outside for a check of the property. I changed to a VS fedora (inspired by the Stetson Stratoliner in dove grey beaver felt).

A bit later I headed out to fill bird feeders and to clear the boathouse of ice buildup. A Royal DeLuxe Setson Stratoliner was my hat choice.

Cheers, Eric -
I like that colour and a spiral stitch from to to time is a welcome change.Here I am with another hat of the "little glorious" generation of Italian hats born between sixty and seventies.
Last was a modern G.B. Borsalino fu Lazzaro, "Destrina" color, this time it is directly a Borsalino

The style in those years, now distant, became "imaginative" and "creative" solutions were tried to give oxygen to a market in evident asphyxiation, certainly the tastes of the buyers had also changed

Borsalino Qualità Extra Superiore in "Maroso" felt color. What does this word mean in Italian?
maróso1 s. m. [der. of sea]. - Huge wave of the sea; It is mostly used at the PLURAL. To indicate the wave motion of the coarse sea, characterized by large waves that proceed aligned, with steep crests and close to breaking or already broken at the top.

The felt is very soft and finished with concentric seams on the crown and on the brims, the ribbon is of the same Felt and color

Have a nice Sunday and thanks for your likes on the G.B. Borsalino "Destrina"
Compliments for your parade of hats!
Thanks Stefan. I don't see many differences from the "Dattero" color, perhaps this is a little more lightNever saw that colour before. I really like it, especially with a bit of sunshine on it.
The colors on that Custom V—wow!The week in hats. Alas, hardly any useable sunshine this week, but here we go anyway.

Of course! That is what you get for living way up north. A bunch of sensible Vikings made it all the way south to the Mediterranean.

Thanks Brent.I’ll take cold and rain over hot and dry any day! Nice Panizza, too. It’s a brand that has eluded me in my size.
I’m a sucker for the feted edge so the Cavanagh wins by a nose. The ribbon work on the Tirard Grand Raid is something else too! Love it.
Digging the whole look Bill
The hats are outstanding and so is that Filson Packer!This morning has been cold and I can wear a hat only when I pull my collar up. Early morning walkabout in a Royal DeLuxe Stetson OR.
