    This company is located in Washington State (my home state). Has anyone had dealings with them and what was your experience? My last two dealings have been less than favorable, I am wondering if it is me or them.

    Panama Hat Thread

    OK, getting ready for the summer, I was looking at a Stetson Hemp Stratoliner in Sand color @ $131 then I ran across an Akubra Balmoral Hemp for $58 USD from hats by the hundred so went that way. The plan is to replace the "leather" band with a grossgrain ribbon.

    Brent, it looked great just pulled from the box and tried on,realized it would be too tight for wearing. Also the 2 1/4 brim was a little stingier than my other daily hats so Art was kind enough to trade it back for a Chocolate in 61, I guess I will call it my birthday hat for February. New...
