Thanks Stefan! Yeah, justification is a mind trick, isn’t it?Whatever we need to tell ourselves to get the next one is fine, Nathan. That is one excellent looking hat.

Great looking hat, Nathan. I love MallorysI could not look at this Mallory Ten any longer on eBay. Last year, before I realized I can generally wear a 6-7/8 (generally might be an over statement), I watched this guy languishing for months. Then it vanished and I figured sold, but suddenly it’s back and I just can’t watch it on my screen any longer.
I really didn’t need another one in this style from this era, but I don’t have a Mallory Ten at all so I guess that’s justification? Maybe?
I am budgeted now to seven new hats a year. This one will be number two (counting from when I made that rule, which was last week ).

Thanks Joe! Yeah, I love them as well - I hope I can make it work size wise!Great looking hat, Nathan. I love Mallorys
I looked at that one a couple of times, myself. I bet that's a nice felt.

I like the sweat band and stitching in this one much better!I can attest to it being very nice.

Cool find, Joe. Failsworth held the UK license to produce Stetsons and made some very fine hats. Judging by the liner this appears a more modern one, but there's no reason why it shouldn't be a top quality hat.
Ooh, finally something that looks like a fun wool hat - this one is from Adam (maybe one of their last models? I have no idea how to date wool hats).
It’s actually fitted (is that the right word? instead of small, medium, etc.) and the seller even showed measurements so I know it will fit.
Recently, I’ve been shopping mostly non-fur hats but have not found much of interest at all. I also can’t usually wear wool, so even if this is nice quality there’s still a chance it won’t get much head time.
For $35 all in, I’ll take a chance.
This might be the coolest looking wool fedora I’ve ever seen.
Oh man going to have to add those to my saved searches.I’m surprised no one else was interested in this. It was a bargain at $10.

Do you need a LO flange for a LO hat or will a standard work well enough?Aside from my aluminum “blocks,” I rarely use any of my blocks, but I use flanges all the time.
