Talk:Borsalino

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I have tried to further rewrite the Borsalino article at Borsalino/Temp so that it is not breaching any copyright problems. Yes, the original submission still followed the original source too closely. I am working on that. I have reduced the article to the bare facts in more of my own wording. I should have done that before submission, but I intended to work with it more later. SF2K1 00:57, 1 September 2005 (UTC)

Seminumerical 12:35, 25 October 2005 (UTC) Lapin fur? what is a Lapin? Lapin is french for rabbit, is that what was meant or is it some other creature?

Yes. The borsalino hats were founded through "Lapin", aka Rabbit, fur. They later expanded their top of the line hats to utilize beavers (I have no idea why yet), leaving rabbit as the "standard" and felt or faux fur for the cheap hats. SF2K1

I don't know if linking to a page containing information about the new Borsalino hats is considered advertisement, so I didn't place the link in the article page. The link is http://www.newmax.it/Borsalino/index-borsa.htm --phauly 08:29, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
