Anyone know anything about this hatmaker Daquino?

Very nice, Serge. Bunny or beaver?

 

[RJR]

Nice.

Thanks! This is bunny. How does the beaver compare to the bunny (for some reason that sounds like a really weird question [emoji1])

Nice.

Thanks RJR!

Ha! Yeah, it does. I have one of each. While soft, the bunny has a "rougher" texture. The beaver is noticibly softer, lighter and more malleable. They're both great for the $$

Sounds good. I'll enquire about the difference in price for my next hat (Yeah, officially addicted know [emoji53])

I just ordered two more hats from Luisa, my first purchase has turned out to be my favorite hat bar none. I'm having her do a custom western and ordered a newsboy for good measure. Chicago winter coming, I know I'll be putting that one to use...

Be sure to let us know how they turn out! I'm still contemplating ordering a navy fedora.

I'll be on this thread to see the western.
Looks like I'm not a good costumer to D'Aquino, so let me see what they come up with a western.

I am very fond of the one she made for me! Wearing it today.

She never did return your emails, did she? And you're the only one of us to visit her shop.

Not even phoned. I gave all my contacts to them and still waiting...

That hat and the one James Spader wears in The Blacklist got me thinking about a navy fedora. Still need to decide on crown height and brim width. Mine will be all navy (hat, ribbon and binding)

Hi Scott, the newsboy doesn't show on my phone [emoji53]

Love the fedora. What color is that? Is it bunny or beaver?

Wow, excellent hat, Scott. Luisa did that one up right!

 

[RJR]

Very nice.

It's bunny, a sand color felt, 2 3/8 brim no taper to the crown ( I didn't photograph the newsboy yet...

Hmm, looks like D'Aquino turn out some nice stuff at a decent price. I'll be in Lisbon for a few days before xmas and was wondering about having a look in their shop. Having read this thread, I think I definitely should!
