It was a great radio interview. Amazingly, I heard it when it was first broadcast -- it came on the radio when I got into my car to drive home after placing the order for my first Optimo Hat...:)

What a great new build... I had no idea it was such a hip joint (no puns allowed.)

I spoke with Graham this afternoon and sent off my 7X Clear Beaver OR style for a new sweat and cleaning. It had been resting at Gary White's along with another renovation project for a couple of months without making it onto the schedule. I'm not great for waiting, but I'm happy that our handful of hatters are busy.

AL: It is wonderful to see such a beautiful and well built hat. Thank you for taking the time to post such quality photographs. I can see that I won't need to worry about anything with this hat. I have a couple Optimos and love them. Now, this summer, I won't be wearing my fedoras, I'll be sporting a new milan.
Thank you again for your efforts my friend...Dennis

The very first time I visited Optimo Graham offered me coffee. I was great. He also gave me a ride to the train station. And I didn't buy a hat.

The new site is amazing, though I'm a fan of opening many tabs at once. I'm excited about these videos, which seem to be very high quality, and quite informative.

On the minus side - root beer milan? No thanks.

I recently made an inquiry about their jaw-dropping "Dillinger" hat, and... well I think I'll just have to be content admiring all of your Optimos from afar. Beautiful specimens, gentlemen!

I wish I could enjoy it. I don't have internet service fast enough to watch videos or even to get the hat styles in a size large enough to see. The new site, unfortunately, is a disaster for us country folk.

If I win the lotto this year, a Dillinger will be mine! ;)

For now, my custom ox blood hat from Black Sheep Hat works fits the bill.

Here's mine. Not quite the specs. of the Dillinger but same color and bow. Hat is only 1 month old.
