Mallory Homburg, arrived today. Big thanks to Brent @deadlyhandsome for sending it my way.

Very soft putty like felt. Still playing around with the overall shape and bash. Love the dimensions.

Was drawn to it by the shape and colour, and especially by the ribbon treatment.

Intriguing logo under the Mallory name. Was this some kind of advertising link back in the day? Doesn't seem to have anything to do with the hat:

The sweat is thin, soft, supple, and thus very comfortable.

All in all, I'm going to get a lot of hat mileage out of this one.

That’s beautiful. The swoop on the brim looks perfect.
Brent seems to be the go-to guy for Homburgs these days…though as I write that, I recall a guy in the Netherlands who does alright with them, too.
Maybe Brent can be the go-to guy for American Homburgs.

You see that Cravenette logo on a lot of Mallorys - maybe most. If I recall correctly, there were other articles of clothing that featured it as well.

Cravenette goes back pretty far.

Love everything about it. Excellent addition Steve

Wegener "Extra", 58 cm, probably early 1950s. The Felt has a great finish and easily dry creases. The paper label is missing but there was 1953 newspaper spacer behind the Sweatband. The Liner has piping which I haven't seen on a Wegener. The Wegener stamp on the Sweatband is also unique.

Two nice finds, Dale. Especially the 3X with box. Now that's a flea market worth coming back to.

Thanks Steve! That's quite a nice homberg you just landed. I like that color a lot.

Thanks Jim. I couldn't make out the word Cravenette for the life of me. Didn't think to check my other Mallorys

Very early 1900s Top Hat.

I used to live on a side street to this down town Copenhagen main street, Vesterbrogade.

Still trying to find info about Albert Nielsen's establishment.

I now have a line up of Top Hats waiting to be posted in the Toppers Unite thread. Promise I'll get them posted soon.

You need a frock coat and a cravat…maybe a walking stick too.
Looking great, Steve.

Also received this Hückel today. The spots on the left side of the hat is just moisture, because i changed the brim a littlebit. I think today is a good day
