THE MALLORY MILE

Another great old Mallory. This time a soft felt homburg. The brim has a lot more of the D’Orsay curl than my later vintage Homburgs. The felt is a super dark inky blue. I juxtaposed it with my black derby to demonstrate that it is actually blue…it looks the darkest black except in bright direct light.

Two great finds Brent. Gotta luv a midnight blue homburg!


Two great blues in one day! Wow! I need to hang around here more often!

Mallory Aristocrat Quality fedora in grey. Classic looking fedora in a size 56 with the overwelted and triple stitched brim at 6cm and the crown at 10,5cm at the center dent. Can't go wrong with this kind of hat and I'm not passing up on a nice Mallory even if I have plenty of hats in this colour scheme.

No you can not! Beautiful hat, Stefan. I’m thinking this may be Mallory’s version of the Flagship with the triple stitching on the brim.

Even if you have plenty of hats in this colour scheme,
it's really a wonderful scheme that at least I can't get enough of to see.

Thank you, Joe. Could well be. Have to set it beside the Flagship though to see how much alike they really are. For some reason I'm thinking the Flagship has a more substantial crown, but I might be wrong.

You and me both. I find them hard to resist. Thanks, Matt.

Very well may be true. Even if they have similar height.. may be less taper on the Flagship. Finish of course impossible to assess in photos. Very similar in stylings though. Beautiful hat for sure. I do love my Mallorys

I received my first Mallory today, it's an Aristocrat Quality, or at least thats the only marks I can find on the band. It has a few moth chews on the brim and a couple on the crown. The band is a little rough too. I like the shape though and the felt has a nice feel to it, ribbon is in nice shape and has a back bow.
