Congrats gabrielle, knew you were going to be getting your hat soon. Maybe I should check up on Jimmy and see if my hat is going to be coming soon as well. Can't wait to see some pics, that is probably why no one else has posted so far. What hat is that in your avatar by the way?? Got a nice bash on that one. Enjoy your hat.

Well my patience is starting to fail, but not really. I will give him a call tomorrow or wednesday and see what is going on as far as status wise.Aeris_Canon wrote:IndianaChris, give him a call. That's usually how it plays out. Just as your patience begins to fail, you call him to find out the status, and the hat usually arrives within a couple days of doing that. Not always, but usually.
Gabrielle, please take some pics for us!
gabrielle, I am sure Jimmy's hat looks amazing. That's your Keppler hat in your avatar...very nice, nice bash again, having a little trouble messing with the bash in my Magnoli HJ, so soft. I got the pinch pretty much where I want it, just the sides have been giving me a little trouble. Again have to agree with AC quote there, you gotta take some pics for us of your new hat. Looking forward to seeing them.

What exactly, AC are we supposed to say? He loves his hat. There are no photos as of this post. Good for him!Aeris_Canon wrote:Going by the 60 views already and no replies, you probably won't see much love for it here, unfortunately.
Otherwise, there's not a whole lot to comment on yet.
At the time of this posting, there are 69 views and only 4 comments (none of them particularly positive either) on this newly received Wested WITH photos.

Gabrielle,
I'm glad you like your hat. it's hard to describe, isn't it, just how robust the hats are. Is yours rabbit or beaver?
In the few weeks I've had mine, it has settled into my head shape just fine, like a glove, just as you describe.
Again, congrats. I' look forward to some pictures.

My point was he probably wants to also show that it is a good hat and in the process give a thumbs up to the hat maker, you could also look at it from the perspective of giving some support to the JPD business as well. That's how I look at it at least, when I take the trouble to post a photo of a hat or whatever it may be, I am giving credence to the capability of a certain vendor. That's what you do when you post here, whether intended or not, I think it is mostly a nice side note, but that's probably a given...I never looked at it as something involving pressure or stress...back to the main topic at hand....Aeris_Canon wrote:Point is exactly that - Just want to see how it looks. No pressure to have to sell the thing in the process.bigrex wrote:I know, what's your point?Aeris_Canon wrote:
Gabrielle, don't worry about showing the pic for the sake of 'selling more hats'. LOL!
Just want to see how it looks, that's all.

Ok here are the photos. I really love this hat. I can't explain how, but every day I put it on it looks better and feels better on my head like it's shaping itself to my head. Also that white stuff on the top is dust from behind the nurse's station desk where my hat fell the other day. I decided to leave it since I don't care if it's mussed up. The liner is a beautiful blue/purple with white in the middle and Jimmy's crest with 2 yellow roses. I'll add another photo later.
Ok here's the lining...

Finally, Beautiful hat gabrielle. I got a hold of Jimmy, he said mine would be done wednesday or thursday. So either the 14th or the 15. That is an awesome hat, I can't wait to get mine. Hopefully should be here before the premiere. Thanks for sharing these long anticipated pictures of your hat.

Congrats on your new hat and glade to see it. Did you bash it yourself?
Beautiful hat...how do you order your hat? using the web site ?
I tried many times to order a hat at jimmy because I really appreciate his work but (living in Kenya) it's difficult from my country to have a reply !
I hope to have one day the possibility!
A paypal possibility of payment will be welcome!

Re: at
No Jimmy creased it for me. I think I'll try my hand at bashing with a new Fed IV though. Can't be that hard to get a decent look...BendingOak wrote:Congrats on your new hat and glade to see it. Did you bash it yourself?
ANJALI - I contacted Jimmy by phone and paid by phone giving him my credit card info.
