Thank you Ma'am, I appreciate the kind words. As for the "last hat' it is going to a client here in Oregon that has become a great friend and did NOT ask for my last hat. He just wanted another one of mine. The last hat is a surprise as he hasn't received it yet.
Wow Randy, Thank you so much for these words. You have said what i have felt for many years but have never expressed publicly. It's absolutely true that i have always strived to be the best I CAN BE, regardless of anyone elses opinions, always knowing it can be better ( whatever "it" is). Thank...
Well Guys, it's official. David now owns VS Custom hats, in the same location, same 800 number, same website with his pic instead of mine. I'm very proud of his work and know he will treat everyone right. Today, I worked on my last hat repair and handed over my apron. David intends to put a...

ha, quite a few actually Bowen. Since I plan to move to Florida to be with my son I of course will have my Semi calados and a couple of featherweights. But then, I can't leave behind ones that have become a part of me, kinda like leaving a child behind. I actually don't have a "favorite" but do...
Yes Sir, I closed for the public Dec 28th. Until I finish my orders I am "appointment only" so I'm not distracted by tourists. I'm sorry but it's the only way to be able to concentrate. Outside of some panamas I only have two hats left in my "off the rack" series. I'm getting really close to...
Thank you, Art! I love the hat.
Whew!!! I always worry when I'm given free reign Brent. I don't normally do a wide ribbon for you so I thought it was time. Not everyone would like the lavender/grey toned ribbon and is really rare. I believe the ribbon itself is as old as I am.
