Established in 1857 by Giuseppe Borsalino, Borsalino was a favorite in men's fashion up until the 1940s when the hat business in general declined. Borsalino kept afloat however, expanding to USA and Europe and including neckties, clothing, watches and fragrances in their product line-up.

Borsalino has maintained its heritage of Italian craftsmanship in its hand-made and bespoke products, while still reflecting this in its ready-made collection for men and women.
