Yeah, I had that concern too...Great hat! My only issue was hearing from people who received a hat when they placed a deposit 6-7 months after me. That just didn’t make sense.
I am sure that the hat will be nice as Bob's work looks great from all the others that have received theirs. Hopefully, it will arrive sooner than being any later than it already is. Please do post pictures when it arrives. While blaming COVID is easy to do these days, I wouldn't blame it in this case as 2-1/2 years waiting is a long time already. Good luck.Well Bob wrote me end of last year that he wants my hat done by Christmas and that didn't happen. I will blame covid for it. For me canceling it is not an option. I have waited almost two and a half years now and fingers crossed. If it takes another year so be it but in the end I will post the results here and hopefully be a happy customer.
No hatmaker should be trusted after that.If you quote someone 12 months, I think 2-1/2 years is unconscionable... and still no hat? Wow.
That's an extremely good looking hat. The ribbon is awesome. I'd be more then willing to wait a few months for that.After 2.5 years my Custom BSHW hat arrived.
Unfortunately there are a few quality issues I noticed but I had my expectations really high so I might be just nitpicking.

It's a fantastic looking hat and from the pictures I can't see anything wrong with it. Two and a half years is still a long time though.After 2.5 years my Custom BSHW hat arrived.

Thanks. It is a a very nice hat. As I have explained in the comments of the Album the issues are minor and mostly me nitpicking. I am happy I have got it. I guess thst after waiting 2.5 years I got my expectations really really high.
I love the look, and the ribbon is phenomenal. Nice peek-a-boo liner, too.After 2.5 years my Custom BSHW hat arrived.

Past time, IMO. Hopefully, Bob gets caught up and can get his work estimates more accurate for his customers.
Good day, what the width of the bow on this hat? Thanks
Wow—that is a stunner! I’ve never seen a bow/ribbon so rich. And the cavanaughesque edge? Wow—next level. Congrats and hope you enjoy!After 2.5 years my Custom BSHW hat arrived.
