My Camptown has arrived. I am the proud owner of hat # "007" 8) I thought that was pretty cool ! The fit is great, a little stiff but will break in nicely ! I fully recommend Camptown hats!! Jersey Jones Is an A + in my book ! I'm kinda tired and had a bad day :( so I will let the pics speak for themselves !

VERY nice looking Camptown, Rip! What are you doing specifically to soften up the felt, if I may ask? Are you just going to use the hat and let it soften on it's own, or are you doing something different?

Regards! Michaelson

I was thinking about crushing it and sitting on it :wink: . Odds are I will let it just soften naturaly. I DO like a soft hat though......... :-k

Thanks to Ripper for his kind words and positive review ! I have now got a few of each size and color ready to ship. You can also now visit camptownhats.com for more information ! I will also continue to honor the COW Discount for as long as I can afford to.

And if you like the hats, please tell your friends, since in order for me to make them, I , ya know, need to sell them to people ! :P

Regards
Ken

That is a great looking Metropolitan Rip! Since you've had it for a while and it should feel like second nature on you head by no, could you post more pics please? :D Maybe some outdoor shots?

Cheers!

I will, My digital camera is at the bottom of the lake at Disneyland . I plan on buying a new one at the end of the month. It is fairly soft now, and fits great !

Ooh. Sorry to hear about that. We were there just last weekend. I had a digital camera of mine washed and then dried not too long ago. Fried it.
But, if you go to this site you may be able to pick up a Kodak Easy Share V803 for a reasonable price.

Worth a try anyway. It was the best price that I had found on an 8 megapixel digital camera, and it fits in a shirt pocket.

Can't wait to see what you got. :D

Cheers!

Hey JJ I got the impression from a thread somewhere that you were soon to cease trading. Is that still true, or did I misunderstand something?

Your hats look great, so I hope I dreamed it. :(

Camptown had some life breathed back into it, so Jersey is NOT closing shop! :wink:

Uh yeah that's the thread. I should probably have finished reading it, huh? :oops:

Anyway, that's a relief. Thanks guys.

That's a great looking hat. When I get a little more loose change, an odd idea to contemplate for a college kid, I'm going to get onf of those. You'll love it. I certainly love my Fieldmaster. By the way JJ, the name Fieldmaster itself is pretty cool. I wore it out to a bar the other night, and several ladies took an interest in it. I certainly felt like a master of the field. Now, If only I could get them to like me when I take the hat off. . . :-k
Cheers,
Chaos

Well, after touting the merrits of the Fieldmaster for so long I have put in an order for the Metropolitan! I can't wait to get my hands or my head on it. I have opted with the traditinal Indy center dent to go along with my Fieldmaster. This should be another great hat from Ken to go with either a suit or adventure gear. I will post pictures once I get it.

Cheers!
