Also a greenish-brown Mallory with a red ribbon and gold edge binding...the felt is paper thin and extremely soft. This one may end up on the classifieds because it's a 7-1/4. The stitching on the sweat is about 2/3 gone so I will probably try to fix it before I post it...unless someone wants it now. I may keep it if I decide a fixed-and-then-stuffed sweatband makes it look good on me.

Great color combos on the felt, ribbon, and binding. If you can make it fit, it would look great!

I've got to join in this chorus. That Mallory is beautiful, Chiliarches!

Couple of Stetsons

Just got these 2 Stetsons in the mail. An older Stetson Twenty with a great color contrast and a much newer Stetson thin ribbon.

I'm no hat forensics expert, but I suspect a sweat replacement on the Twenty.

Here are three of the five new homburgs I have acquired this week:

Dobbs-looks like a bowler with a dent; fits well but looks tiny.

Hall & Hall-Deep midnight blue; hard to distinguish from black except side by side.

Royal DeLuxe Stetson St. Regis-This one is superb; mint in every way. My favorite so far...

Mr. P, the Stetson looks light gray to me from here. Looks fantastic. I'm gonna have to find one as nice as that.
