I mean, Ferragamo’s been around since, like, forever (1927, the internet tells me, which is basically forever in fashion years). And they’re Italian, which automatically makes everything, like, ten times cooler, ya know? The whole “Italian craftsmanship” thing is legit. You can *feel* it, even in a hat.
I’ve seen a few floating around online, mostly secondhand. The RealReal and Vestiaire Collective seem to be, like, the go-to spots. And Mercari too, if you’re digging for a bargain. I’m not gonna lie, the prices can be a bit “oof,” but hey, it’s Ferragamo. You’re paying for that brand, that history, that “I’m rich but also kinda thrifty” look.
Speaking of looks, the Gancini logo? *Chef’s kiss*. It’s just so subtly bougie. Like, “Yeah, I’m wearing a Ferragamo hat, but I’m not shouting about it.” Unless, of course, you *are* shouting about it, which is totally fine too. You do you.
I kinda dig the baseball cap style, honestly. It takes the whole Ferragamo thing and makes it a little more… approachable? Like, you could actually wear it with jeans and a t-shirt and not feel like you’re trying too hard. (Though, let’s be real, you’re probably still trying a little. We all are.)
And then there’s the vintage aspect. Which just automatically makes it cooler, right? It’s got history. It’s probably seen some things. It’s probably been worn by someone with a way more interesting life than mine. (Okay, maybe not. But let a girl dream, okay?)
The thing is, though, hunting for a vintage Ferragamo hat online can be a bit of a crapshoot. You gotta be careful. Make sure it’s actually authentic. The RealReal says they have experts, which is reassuring. But always, *always* do your research. Check the stitching, the materials, the overall vibe. If it looks sus, it probably is.
Honestly, I’m thinking about getting one myself. Maybe a snapback? I always find those so cool. It would be a fun way to elevate my basic wardrobe. And also, let’s be honest, to feel a little bit fancy. Even if I’m just wearing it while I’m binging Netflix in my pajamas. Don’t judge me!
