Oh I gotta get me one, and im a HUGE baseball fan so this makes it even better. Ryan is it possible to make this a sticky so that the ones that want a hat will be made aware when they "officially" go on sale
Yeah but, those dudes in the pictures kind of look like penis heads with those hats on... I whispered that so that they wouldn't hear me, jump out of the pictures, and kick my ass. And how come they called them the boys of summer if they all look like they are freezing their asses off? BTW, by slightly more modern I don't mean that these are gonna be high crowned flat brimmed Jesse James hats (sorry jesse). Trust... or don't... This is for me. Not you! hehehe
baseball and hot rods are a fight to the finish for me. i hate the yanks. love the Bo Sox. i'm in for one. Boston style baby! 7 3/8. where do i send the scratch? so, like, HAMB Nation! like Red Sox Nation.
Ryan, Any chance of a custom 7 7/8 or even a 8 for the fellas with the large melons? I always start every season with a new Dodger hat in size 8. Yes it's a little big, but at the end of the season/summer with the heat and sweat these do shrink and get tighter. Right now a Dodger hat is $33.99 plus shipping. So a HAMB hat is easily worth $40 if not more. Thanks, Sean
Dude... the tradition of starting each season with a Dodger hat kind of rules... Like kind of cooler than having a TJJ/HAMB hat. But I dunno, these things are pretty damn rad. I'll see if they can do the cuts for larger sizes.
Just a tip, those pics are from much earlier than the 40's or 50's. Most are early century to the 20's and 30's I would guess. Still a very cool idea Ryan, I would be in for one of each in size 7 1/2. I have a cooperstown vintage Red Sox hat and it has a very small bill, will these have one similar to that or more along the lines of the caps of the 50's. (edit: I see the pic of the sample now, question answered.)
Yeah, I know... I just liked the images. And for those of you that like early notice, here's an unrelated heads up on something else... I'll give you a 24 hour head start.
I really like this idea, Ryan, even though I don't wear hats. This just might persuade me to! This shot reminds me of Tom Hanks on the movie "A League of Their Own" Malcolm
I love them but unfortunately I know better then to buy hats before I try them on. I have been bitten in the ass with hats (and shirts) when I don't try them on. If you by some chance have them when I can try them on in person I would love to scoop one up!!! You've got class out the ass Ryan!
I don't blame you for that a bit... I'm gonna do a fancy sizing chart that will help a bit, but... you know how that goes. BTW, where the hell were you at the gnrs?
im in for sure, i just wondered if they are gonna have the traditional bill size or the newer longer size? it looks like your sample has the newer longer bill?
Ha!!! I was there dude!! Skipped the meet and greet (forgot again) and was making my way through looking at the eye candy. Fighting a pounding head ache for most of the day but still had a great time. I think I just kept getting sucked into the action and was suffering from sensory overload in the most blissful way possible. I was at Bobby's on Friday evening and Bob's Broiler that night too! As for the hats, I might give it a go and if it doesn't work I can always use that sucker as a hanger....the wool might be a bit hot since we are expecting it to be 100º soon and I know you folk in Austin are expecting the same.
Ok. I'm sold. Need something to keep my bald pate warm in the winter so might As well do it with style... P.
Hey $35 is very reasonable.. I buy those "high crowned flat brimmed Jesse James hats" (well not Jesse's but other New Era hats) for usually more than $35, a lot of times more than $45 if they are rare... One 7 3/4 of each please... -Juan
