The Pick: The Italian hat-maker that should be on your radar

Borsalino’s fedora is an absolute classic

Words: Phoebe

A timeless statement piece and a work of art, the fedora hat adds a touch of 1920s-prohibition-meets-Indiana-Jones swagger to every gentleman’s wardrobe. A gentleman sporting a fedora is seen to be suave with a hint of danger; a reputation that harks back to its history and has helped to secure its popularity over the years.

This inky midnight-blue version is made from 100% pure rabbit felt and lined with a natural leather browband for the ultimate luxury, and is an investment that will stand the test of time. Its small, neat brim gives it a masculine edge, and the neutral colour means it’s versatile and classic. Don a peak-lapel blazer and wear this fedora to a summer garden party, or show off your style at the seaside with shorts and a linen shirt.
