    quadrogong@gmail.com Of all the brands I suggest to customers and friends.. SELENTINO had to be the one brand that consistently checks all the boxes. I can’t think of a single flaw, in a single Selentino hat, from the 25 years I’ve been selling them.
    There are other great brands that are also high quality, Akubra, Borsalino..
    But nobody seems to have that 100% staying power..but them… Selentino.
    They are older than all the other brands.. they have more colors, more textures, and never go bankrupt or have quality issues..as long as ive known them, and I’m selling them since 1994.
    To this day, I have not received a single complaint,or found a single flaw in any Selentino hat I’ve ever seen..nor have I heard a single gripe about their quality, style or anything!..
    Plus, they manage to do this without charging rockstar or millionaire prices..
    They might be the most perfect hat company!.. let’s find out why..
    Thanks for joining me.
    I’m a hat salesman from NYC, working at JJ hat Center since 1994,
    and nine years before that at another shop..
    I’m trying to get everything I know about hats out there to you guys,
    so that it’ll help out some people and hopefully make their hat purchases go a little smoother.
    I’m happy to answer hat related questions or guitar related questions,
    this is HATS AND GUITARS!
    Thanks for joining me on this journey,
    being a youtuber or the “hat guy” is a real pleasure when the viewers are so kind and amazing, (like you)
    I’ve got a lot to say,I tend to go on tangents,and talk about many subjects at once..
    I might stumble on a word here and there,
    but I rarely edit anything out, so if u see me take a gulp of water, or walk off camera,
    I’ve chosen to leave that stuff in, to keep it real, unfiltered and interesting..
    So on that note..
    💚I appreciate your patience and viewership,
    and enjoy the video!..

    • @KTGHATS
      @KTGHATS  2 года назад +1

      They don’t really tell us, its just called 100% fur felt .. it’s the top tier felt level and that’s called a “beaver finish”. I’d guess it’s a blend of mostly rabbit, many different qualities and possibly some beaver too but I know the beaver finish is created from flat felt bodies using machines w metal combs that create the long hair finish by combing /pulling it out in a way

    • @KTGHATS
      @KTGHATS  2 года назад

      Dobbs is not the same Dobbs from years ago. They are made by the same people who make Stetson, Hatco. It’s just another “line” for them, they consider it more of an “inner city” line, for certain cities where more “ethnic” looking styles sell more, I know..🙄 it’s ridiculous.
      But yeah, Hatco makes Stetson, Dobbs, Resistol,and Charlie One Horse hats.. in the same factories.. just different liners, logos and stuff.
      They’re okay, they make a few highe end hats that are really nice, but for the most part, they’re just stetsons with different styling.
      I’m not a huge fan, but that’s just me. If u see a hat that you love, that’s cool..go for it, but they’re not the same Dobbs from years ago, it’s just a name that Hatco purchased the license to use.

    Great info as always. I was looking at the Borsalino Antonio but having a hard time with dropping 4 or 5 Cs. Plus it isn’t back in stock (yet). Looking seriously at the Hudson. A couple of questions, is the Hudson (or Selentinos in general) rollable like the Borsalinos… and shareable? Thanks!

    • @KTGHATS
      @KTGHATS  2 года назад +1

      It is not rollable, it’s snappier, thicker, more substantial hat, anything as soft as a Borsalino needs to be super super high end felt to hold a shape, otherwise they just flop.. nobody knows how to make hats like them, Trade secrets. The Antonio is coming back in February, the order was supposed to be here xmas and was delayed, they’re coming back though, on order in grey, tan , black

    Good brand review! Quick question... If I'm not wearing a hat can it be left with the brim down or should it be snapped up while its on the rack? I tend to leave them down... is that ok?
    BTW try a tea made with 1T apple cider vinegar, 1-2 T honey, 1/4 tsp cinnamon and 1/4 tsp ginger in a cup hot water... that'll fix you up.

    • @KTGHATS
      @KTGHATS  3 года назад +1

      Better to snap it up when not wearing it, and ALWAYS when wet. But it shouldn’t really hurt it, just keep that brim off of the surface of the table , it’ll be fine the way you’re doing it
