    THE MALLORY MILE

    Thank you! Pouring through the thread again and I was thinking maybe early 50’s too, late 40s at a stretch. According to the seller the crown is 5 in and the brim is 2 1/4 in which doesn’t seem typical of a 40s hat but based on the liner pic it has to be post Stetson buy-out. Hopefully when it...

    THE MALLORY MILE

    Just won this Mallory 15 complete with original box on eBay! Looking forward to its arrival, one of my first ever vintage pieces. Just curious what advice you all would have for putting a date range to it when it gets here? I’ve been looking back through the thread and Googling as much as I can...

    Fedora brim width???

    True, though even the derbies back then, at least some of the time, had slightly wider brims than many would associate with them now. Once they were fully a town/city dress hat though those mildly larger brimmed derbies went away.

    Fedora brim width???

    Not just Westerns, but Outback’s, Safaris, even gardening hats. A nice wide brim is necessary here most of the year, especially the dog hours of the dog days of high-summer! Sometimes though a shorter snap brim can make you feel cool even if it doesn’t keep you as cool.

    Fedora brim width???

    Oh no, no perfection! What’s the fun in that!? But the side I didn’t post an image of is a little flattened so I want to fix that a little and get the diamond a tad more defined. But considering my face shape and height I think that brim width will work out great!

    Fedora brim width???

    Won this hat on eBay yesterday, according to the seller it has a 5 in crown and a 2 in brim. I figure after some gentle steaming and shaping it’ll look quite respectable as a Bogart hat on my 5ft 2in tall frame.

    I love the Fed IV!!

    Just curious for those who have evened out the brim of their Feds to no longer be dimensional what your processes were?

    Indy hat post em up

    Sounds like an awesome collection! Personally always wanted one of the beaver Last Crusade Poets that Herbert Johnson offers now, but I’d have to be buried with it after my wife discovered how much it was.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    It is the hemp and in all honesty I kind of love it! It’s very cool on the head and has a nice shape to it. Many would probably criticize the crown for being too low but at 4 1/2 inches it’s a pretty decent height for a little fellow like myself. The only thing I would personally change is I...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    Yes, actually, here in Florida I’ve been happily wearing my two Hemp Stratoliners most days. The temps have been hovering around 90 F / 32 C, which is generally the felt-straw cut off for me, except the ever present Florida humidity nudges it over the edge. The other day I saw two people walking...
