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.

La collezione Borsalino Autunno-Inverno 2017/2018 è un inno alla libertà di esprimersi, di mescolare gli stili, di comunicare attraverso colori e dettagli. E’ un giardino voltairiano dove raccontare la propria storia, liberi da schemi.

Each model is a story in which the language of the designer from Venice Beach, California, engages with the tradition of the brand that rendered the hat a global cult object.

In beaver felt, the iconic Borsalino shapes are reinterpreted by the Bohemian style of Nick Fouquet, and 100% handcrafted in Borsalino's factory, Alessandria, Italy.

Borsalino by Nick Fouquet is the meeting of two worlds, a continuous play of references and constructions of significance between vision and memory, modernity and craftsmanship.

Legenda Glossary

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. Marengo Melangio ottenuto da un mix di pelo di coniglio.

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. Marengo A blend obtained from a mix of rabbit fur.

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.

68

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.

69

Conoscere la propria taglia è semplicissimo: è sufficiente misurare la circonferenza della testa, un centimetro circa sopra l'orecchio, come nel disegno qui sotto.

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.
