Jeeping around town running errands, today. Wearing a Mallory OR clone. I’m guessing this hat was made well after Stetson aquired Mallory. In fact, it’s quality...or lack thereof...reminds me of the stiff, cardboard-like ORs made a decade ago. But it’s still a good hat everyday wearing...and I’ve always liked the color.
Nice hat! Do you need your Jeep rolled back over?
Thanks Stefan. The color is a little variable. Yesterday and last night it was a kind of pastel green. Today it seems to me sort of blue. Other days it's gray.
I wish mine was in unworn condition. Not that it is bad condition. Is yours Aristocrat Quality?
yeh, it's something, the stitching. Cheers, but I can't stand looking at myself, but we'll see, couple of days it'll be normal.Who are you and what have you done with Karl?Totally different look for you, Karl. Love the brim stitching on that Borsalino.
It's the jacket, isn't it?OK, now you're just showing off!
Another fantastic hat. Come to think of it though, I don't think I've seen any of yours that aren't fantastic.1910s Chamois
Thanks Richard. Love might be too strong of a word. I'm working on acceptance, though.
Man, I don't know how you do it! All of your hats are amazing, but 1910s looking that good, priceless.1910s Chamois

Looks very light for a wool?Brüder Böhm "Lido", made of Wool, probably late 1930s and from my May 2016 NOS Czech find.
Unfortunate oxidation of the sweatband logo.
Brüder Böhm Hat Holder from the same May 2016 Czech find probably also from the late 1930s.
Ha, funny Moe. Sorry Matt.
Holy cow...1910s Chamois
Karl, I looked at the fur hairs with a video microscope and it's made of Wool. B.B. were known for Wool Soft and Stiff Felt Hats. The hairs are not course so it has a smooth finish. If I get a chance I will take photos. This is a very unique hat so hard to explain. I doubt there is anything else like it on the FL.
Are you in Australia?
