Wait times may vary jnicktem: there was this movie released between his ordering and when you ordered that had something to do with brown hats ;) But for safety, stick to expecting a year long wait time.

I just finished pouncing your hat five minutes ago. We've been working hard to improve our pouncing technique furthermore over the last months. THIS one turned out PERFECT!!! It is so smooth, you'll almost need an magnifying glass to see it's actually felt!!! You can be happy that it's not my size LOL

I cannot wait until it arrives!!! I'm actually a bit nervous, though! I'm afraid that my expectations might be too high, or that I measured my head wrong, or it won't look good on my misshapen head . . . Has anyone else experienced these feelings?
Guy, calm down man. you'll drive yourself nuts over this thing, do yourself a favor and make yourself hate the hat now, so when you get it, your happily surprised. If i were you I'd probably try and stay away from all things indy for a long time.

I just read that and it sounded harsh, I mean all best intentions. It's what I'd do if I were you

I don't know how Marc ships his hats, so it may take longer, but I need to ask. Have you received it yet?

Moviematt1989,

I didn't take it the wrong way. I knew what you meant.

Here's the latest email I received from Marc:

your hat is ready, creased and packed :-) The Flying V on yours is one of the best I ever made and as I told you, the pouncing came out really, really nice as well, so I hope you'll love the hat when you get it.

Can't wait!!!
