Borsalino: 160 Anni di Storia
Il 4 aprile 2017 Borsalino, la più antica manifattura italiana
specializzata nella produzione di cappelli di lusso, ha festeggiato
il suo 160° compleanno. In occasione dell’anniversario, il Ministero
per lo Sviluppo Economico del Governo Italiano ha riconosciuto
Borsalino tra le eccellenze del sistema produttivo nazionale,
dedicandole un francobollo del valore di € 0,95.
La storia
Il 4 aprile del 1857 Giuseppe Borsalino avvia ad Alessandria un
piccolo laboratorio artigianale per la produzione di cappelli in feltro.
I primi macchinari li acquista in Inghilterra negli anni Sessanta
dell’Ottocento. Nel ventennio a cavallo dei due secoli ottiene
il Grand Prix all’Exposition Universelle di Parigi, un attestato
internazionale di qualità, e inaugura una nuova manifattura, le più
grande di Alessandria, oggi sede dell’Università e del Museo del
Cappello Borsalino.
A partire dagli anni Venti del Novecento l’azienda, passata nel
frattempo agli eredi di Giuseppe, cresce soprattutto nel mercato
statunitense, dove i cappelli prodotti ad Alessandria vengono
indossati dallo star system hollywoodiano. Un fotogramma su tutti:
Humphrey Bogart e Ingrid Bergman nell’indimenticabile scena
finale di "Casablanca". Quello con la settimana arte è un rapporto
speciale e destinato a durare a lungo: oltre a Bogart e alla Bergman,
portano un Borsalino Jean Paul Belmondo in "Fino all’ultimo
respiro", Marcello Mastroianni in "8 e 1/2" e Tony Servillo ne "La
grande bellezza", premio Oscar 2014. Soprattutto, la manifattura
di Alessandria concede l’uso del proprio nome a 2 pellicole cult
degli anni Settanta: "Borsalino" e "Borsalino & Co". L’idea è di Alain
Delon e Borsalino accetta a patto che sulle locandine appaia il logo
dell’azienda.
Così Borsalino, attraversando la rivoluzione dei costumi, arriva
ai giorni nostri restando fedele a un processo produttivo che,
tramandato di generazione in generazione, rappresenta il valore
culturale dell’azienda. I cappelli Borsalino continuano a essere
prodotti ad Alessandria coniugando prospettiva industriale e spirito
artigianale: per i modelli in feltro sono necessari più di 50 passaggi
manuali e 7 settimane di lavorazione; la realizzazione dei modelli in
paglia, intrecciati manualmente, può richiedere fino a 6 mesi per
ogni singolo cappello.

Borsalino: 160 Years of History
On 4th April 2017 Borsalino, the oldest Italian company specialised
in making luxury hats, celebrated its 160th birthday. To mark
this anniversary, the Italian Ministry for Economic Development
has recognised Borsalino as an example of national excellence,
dedicating a € 0.95 stamp to the company.
The company's history
On 4th April 1857 Giuseppe Borsalino opened a small artisanal
workshop in Alessandria to make felt hats. He bought his first
machinery from England in the 1860s. In 1900 he was awarded
the Grand Prix at the Paris Exposition Universelle, an international
certification of quality, and a new workshop was inaugurated, the
largest in Alessandria which now hosts the University and the
Borsalino Hat Museum.
From the 1920s onwards, the company which was at these times
in the hands of Giuseppe's heirs, grew mainly in the USA, where
hats made in Alessandria were worn by Hollywood stars. An
image encapsulates it: Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman in
the unforgettable last scene of "Casablanca". The relationship with
the world of cinema is a special one which was destined to last: as
well as Bogart and Bergman, Borsalinos were worn by Jean-Paul
Belmondo in "Breathless", Marcello Mastroianni in "8½" and Tony
Servillo in the 2014 Oscar-winning "The Great Beauty". Above all
the Alessandria brand allowed its name to be used in 2 cult films of
the Seventies: "Borsalino" and "Borsalino & Co". The idea was Alain
Delon's, and Borsalino accepted on condition that the company's
logo featured on the films posters.
And so Borsalino, which has gone through a cultural revolution,
has reached our era staying faithful to a production process
that has been handed down from generation to generation and
reflects the company's cultural values. Borsalino hats are still
made in Alessandria and combine craftsmanship with an industrial
approach: over fifty steps, done by hand over seven weeks, are
needed to make a felt hat; straw hats are hand woven, and some
hats can take up to six months to make.

“Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication”: la citazione vinciana
è lo spunto per un viaggio à rebours all’origine degli archetipi
formali che hanno trasformato i cappelli Borsalino in icone
d’eleganza senza tempo.
Sui risultati di questa ricerca s’innesta un processo creativo in
3 fasi che proietta la collezione Autunno-Inverno 2018-19 nello
spazio dell’inaspettato, dove la purezza delle forme Borsalino si
trasforma e si compone di nuove proporzioni, dettagli ricercati e
tessuti dall’effetto tridimensionale.
Collezione
“Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication”: the quote from
Leonardo da Vinci is the cue for a journey back to the origin of the
essential characteristics that have transformed Borsalino hats
into timeless icons of elegance.
The results of this search are combined with a three-stage
creative process which projects the Autumn-Winter 2018-19
collection into the unexpected, where the purity of Borsalino
shapes is transformed and acquires new proportions, elegant
details and fabrics with three-dimensional effects.

La legenda Legend
Il Feltro
Il feltro è una stoffa realizzata in pelo animale: non è tessuta, ma viene
prodotta dalla pressione delle fibre di pelo sottoposte a calore e
umidità costanti. La manifattura Borsalino produce internamente il
feltro necessario alla realizzazione dei suoi cappelli.
Borsalino realizza melangi di feltro pregiatissimi che al pelo di coniglio e
lepre associano cachemire, pelo di castoro, guanaco, vicuña o Cervelt
(sottovello di cervo rosso neozelandese).
Qualità Superiore
Melangio ottenuto da un mix di pelo di lepre con una piccola quantità di
pelo di coniglio.
Alessandria
Melangio ottenuto da un mix di pelo di lepre e coniglio, in quantità
equivalenti.
Felt
Felt is a material made from animal fur: rather than being woven, it is
produced by the pressure of fur fibres which are subject to constant
heat and humidity. The felt used to make our hats is produced in house
at the Borsalino manufacture.
Borsalino makes highly-prized felt blends which combine rabbit and
hare fur with cashmere, guanaco, vicuña or Cervelt (the undercoat of a
New Zealand red deer).
Superior Quality
A blend obtained from a mixture of hare fur with a small amount of
rabbit fur.
Alessandria
A blend obtained from a mix of hare and rabbit fur, in equal measures.
Per mantenere la forma, impugnarlo contemporaneamente
dalla tesa anteriore e da quella posteriore. Evitare di appenderlo
sempre dallo stesso lato. Durante la stagione calda, tenerlo
in una scatola protetta da antitarme. Se il cappello si bagna,
lasciarlo asciugare capovolto su una superficie piana. Evitare
che il cappello venga a contatto con superfici sporche o unte.
Per spolverarlo, utilizzare spazzole a setola morbida: scure se il
cappello è di colore scuro, chiare se il cappello è di colore chiaro.
Per rimuovere eventuali macchie, utilizzare un asciugamano
umido.
Come prendersi cura del proprio cappello in feltro Borsalino.
To ensure it keeps its shape, always grasp it from the front and
rear brims at the same time. Try not to hang it up from the same
side every time. In hot weather, keep it in a box and protect it with
moth repellent. If your hat gets wet, leave it to dry upside-down
on a flat surface. Avoid allowing the hat to come into contact with
dirty or greasy surfaces. Use a soft-bristle brush to dust it off: the
bristles should be dark if the hat is dark coloured, and light if it is
light-coloured. Use a damp cloth to remove any stains.
Caring for your Borsalino felt hat.
Conoscere la propria taglia è semplicissimo: è sufficiente
misurare la circonferenza della testa, un centimetro circa sopra
l'orecchio, come nel disegno accanto.
Finding your hat size is easy: you need to measure the
circumference of your head, a centimetre above your ears, as
shown in the opposite drawing.
The centimetre measurement you get this way corresponds to
the European system (EU). To convert it, use the opposite table.
