Dear Bryan
My hat arrived today much sooner than expected and I wanted to extend my sincerest thanks for a beautiful hat. It far exceeded my expectations, it’s of the very highest quality and I like it very much thank you. I have an Optimo panama from Chicago which is my very best hat, which was so expensive that I only wear it on special occasions, yours is of equal quality at significantly less expense. Your quality wins hands down and is amazing, well done.
Keep up the great work I am so proud to own one of your hats.
Best Mark
