THE MALLORY MILE

[The Wiser Hatter]

Well we now know who purchased the Mallory.

 

[Johnny J]

Yeah. And my pocket still hurts after paying for it. But I do like it. It is very lightweight though.

 

[The Wiser Hatter]

I know sometimes you just have to pull the trigger.

1950's Mallory Twenty 20

Heres my new-to-me 1950's Mallory Twenty that I got on a trade from SteveAS. I really like this hat. The crown is a bit different than what I usually like in a hat. The height was a good height but the profile of the crown was very round instead of the very straight sided/flat top that I usually go for. I think I was able to straighten the look of the crown out by giving it the crease that I did. This is a very nice quality hat with very nice felt and a Cavanagh edge. This is most definitely a keeper and is going in my daily rotation. Thanks again, SteveAS!!!

Thank you very much everyone for your very kind words!!!! I do love this hat. The ribbon is really neat because it has a very nice purple undertone and really stands out against the smokey grey/brownish felt. Thanks again, Steve!!!

Beautiful hat, and that Pliafelt is really amazing to the touch.

 

[zetwal]

I like the liner ...

Fantastic, post-Stetson-takeover Mallory, Alan! It is, along with my old Dobbs, the most beautiful thing I have seen from Batavia! lol

 

[hatophile]

Wow, nice score, Alan!
