Within the past 15 years or so I'd say. I'm fairly sure the newer "Mallory by Stetsons" are wool felts. The line was discontinued about a year ago.

I really loved the colors, but - budget limitations aside - I don't really go for the narrow brims anymore (with the possible exception of hats from the 1930's).
Still, a great hat. The ribbon is a killer.

It was about 100 EURO when it was bought initially in Salzburg. And that was before the EURO was introduced.

Sometimes Woolite makes logos go away! The liner came out yellowed and without that satin "sheen" as well.
I'll never do that again!
Anyhow the hat went to Optimo for a re-build and came home with a new blank liner.
Just by chance while dredging the 'bay today I found this little Borsalino and could NOT pass it up. All I want is the liner,......it's not correct for the 1960's Rapallo, but I really don't care,....at least the word Borsalino will be inside the hat again!
