A porkpie hat from Biltmore? Yes, please! A fedora too? Gosh, I've finally reached hat heaven! Offered in peerless eggshell fur felt and elegant dress hat straw, Biltmore somehow manages to stay immediate and exciting after nearly a century of designing and producing top quality men's hats. Look at how fresh The Milan Straw Porkpie is in mint or natural with contrast woven trim, then hoof it over to The Ponies At The Gate Porkpie to admire its very sharp color play between the hat brim and crown. This is one of those instances Biltmore uses a weave called "the Milan braid", and I think you'll agree that the result is well worth the pricey material and intensive labor.

It's okay if you well up the first time you see The Palm, Biltmore's outstanding Milan braid telescope hat with its contrast brim and band of black grosgrain trim. When your evening plans call for forays into hot nights and hotter clubs, there's simply nothing like The Club Time, a veritable masterpiece of a men's dress straw porkpie in Milan braid with the famous Biltmore narrow brim. For a men's hat with true Latino flavor, The Managua in Milan braid won't disappoint. My friends at Biltmore kept the brim brief and the band finely woven in multi-color. This teardrop-shaped porkpie packs plenty of heat.
One wonders if Biltmore Hats Inc. would have reached such high hat designer pinnacles if they had remained The Fried Hat Company.
