Slob of the day: Borsalino Hat "top" handle bag

This bag is so silly it made me chuckle but then I found out who the maker is and I became annoyed. What I thought was a whimsical idea and creative artistic expression turned out to be mere convenience on the part of the designer. You see, Borsalino is actually a hat maker-- how hard is sticking a pair of handles on an upside down hat and calling it a bag? What, if my head gets cold should I stick it on my head? Made of wool and calfskin with a grosgrain ribbon around the middle, this ridiculous bag retails for $608 / 450 euros. It's much cheaper (and wiser) to just buy one of their stupid hats for 194 euro and sew on two handles yourself. BORSALINO - BORSALINO HAT TOP HANDLE here.

What do you think?
