Waiting for the fitted hats to be available.  Nice work on getting this all set up for us Pixel.

I'm waiting for the fitted hats as well.  Will look for the pricing and sizes once these are available.

Good work!

OK, got info from the embroiderer on the fitted hats.  :)

They are closed (solid) back, meaning no strap or opening, and have a structured "dome" so they stay rounded on or off your head. They come in two sizes S/M and L/XL. They are flex fit so they stretch a bit to accomodate variations in overall melon size.

They'll be available in sandwich style (with a white stripe along the edge of the bill) and in solid style (no stripe). I'll have color info posted later tonight or tomorrow.

Cost for either sandwich or solid is $21.00 shipped. This includes a $1.50 surcharge by me, since this is now becoming more complicated and time consuming to handle. So on these hats there is a small bit of profit going on! ;) There is no price change for the original unstructured styles. Those who have already placed an order but want to change to a structured hat will be able to do so. I'll post instructions for that with the color samples later.

Sweet!

I don't have a PayPal account anymore (or rather, they don't have a MinerAl account any more).  Can I still buy a hat somehow?

Hey Pixel,  When do you think those of us who ordered the unstructured hats will get them?  I figured it would be this week, but I'm not sure...

The process has been slowed considerably by the delay in getting the structured hat info. I'll post an update with ETA's etc once I get the structured hat orders in line.  :)

I'm sorry for the delay. Just scrambling madly to fulfill commitments at work (as I've been out in jury duty the last week and a half). I should have the samples up by tomorrow.

Thanks for your patience everyone! :) :)

I have a L/XL Flexfit hat and normally wear a 7 1/8 fitted hat size.  The L/XL fits with almost no stretch on my head if I have my hair cut short (i.e. when it's really 7 1/8 lol).

I'd say that a 7 might work in a L/XL as well, but it might be a bit loose and have no stretch at all.  A 7 or 7 1/8 could probably go either way depending on if they like their hats tight or loose.  Above or below that should go with the different sizes.

Trying them on would be best though if you can swing by a mall or something.
first off your and idiot

Man I love the internet, haha.

Flex fit is the greatest invention ever.

I like the hats.  However...

This thread is a bit confusing.  Are the structured hats flex fit or is this a new development?
Here's to those who say they do...
Here's to those who say they don't...
Here's to those who say they will
And later decide they won't.

Delivery update:

I am waiting on examples of final stitch patterns from the embroiderer. After that production can begin. I apologize for the delays. Last go round suffered a similar lengthy production time so I guess it's no surprize.  ::) Thanks for your patience everyone!

Oh, and if it'll hold Stingray's order up, I'll take a Pink fitted size 9 with HIS name on it.  If you don't have that color or size and have to special order it, I'm sure he won't mind waiting that extra little bit
