    It may depend on customer's preference or something else? There is a hat it classifieds that is ~1 yr old that has a plain sweat and white unbranded liner...I assume under the sweat there is marking as you mentioned on your earlier hat.

    The Hatco Outlet Store in Garland, TX

    Now looking back I have the same concern. I bought a couple hats at the garland outlet for 1/2 of the advertised price which lines up to the $65 but for some reason the excellent PG whippet for the JP market was $125 (+20 shipping) which I bought a size too big and is really not wearable (reason...

    Thanks for the clarification....I was meaning to say Mike does not offer the conformateur service in the mail, I believe Art is the only one that offers that service? I understand about comment on hatters due to the subjectivity, I do realize that everyone has their favorite! Thanks for posting!

    No arguments regarding a $25 difference between 2 hatters. Other hatters are a little more in the price difference so may or may not be a factor along with lead times. I totally agree about all these hatters creating wonderful hats, I do regularly check out facebook, instagram, Etsy, FL...

    Just came across this post. When I was doing some comparison of custom Hatters not too long ago I found that Mike at NW did have the best price point for both Beaver ($250) and Rabbit ($200) plus any added fees for brim binding (not sure if it is $25?? like Gannon). I know Gannon adjusted his...

My time was limited and was hoping to look at a couple of interesting hats, I browsed the hats behind glass on the right and looked briefly at the hats behind the counter.

    JJ Hat Center & Pork Pie Hatters NYC

    Thanks both for the suggestion to stop by JJ's. It was a really short trip and had the chance to stop by for literally 10 mins on Thursday. Neat shop but unfortunately nothing there that really caught my eye. Had a clearance section in the back but mostly uncommon sizes, lot of stuff from PPH...

    If I recall Fespa is extremely expensive to import due to the minimum quantities. I believe some of the hatters go in on a big shipment, regardless it either more $ than Winchester beaver or the same price plus limited supply in the US is the reason for the premium. I must of read this somewhere...
