I agree with everyone else; just from talking to her over the phone, you can tell Tiffani is a sweetheart. Some day I'm gonna go to Chicago to visit her... I mean, the hats. o_O ;)

I have an expected finish date of August 13th-ish. :D

Well, I'll say one thing, and to use your very own words; "It pairs well with guns."

As to everything else, how better may I say it than:

If I have to wait for it guys, you better wait with me! :eeek::D

:D

The ribbon will be different, though... And if you've seen my other customs, you can expect something a little unorthodox. ;)

LOL!!! I admit, this ribbon isn't all my design like in my past customs, but it's still something out of the ordinary. It's Dillinger-esque, but more tailored to my frame. Still have to come up with a name for it.

Thanks, Bob. I have one of Art's Milans and it's great, but this one takes my breath away!

Have you posted pictures of your milan from Art? I can imagine that you must be very happy with it. Thanks again. Optimo does a fine, fine job, no doubt.

Does Optimo have a style with a tapered crown? I have a pretty narrow jaw, so crowns that look somewhat squarish (front view) don't really fit my face. I need something that isn't too high (which shouldn't be a problem since I can request for a shorter crown), but I more importantly something with a tapered look.

What you are looking for is very common. Optimo has many hats that would fit your description. I would take a look at the hats at Optimo's web site.

http://www.optimohats.com/

If you have any questions just give Optimo a telephone call. They can also make a hat to your specifications. They are on the expensive side so be warned. I am sure others will have additional comments / suggestions.

Has anyone purchased a hat in their lava (Optimo 1000)? I wanted a gray, and I fell in love with the feel and weight of my Optimo silverbelly, so I'm interested in lava. I requested a swatch, and it seems almost black. Tiffani said that once sanded, it gets a few shades lighter.

Does anyone have one?

Have you guys checked oprimo's mobile site? Looks great on my iPhone.

Finally. I can now use their site with my iPad and iPhone. I've mentioned to Tiffani that this was a problem. So many times I've been out and about with an Optimo, and I've wanted to show their site to someone curious about my hat. It's not good business to ignore iOS and tie yourself with flash. Very well done.

I have a swatch, too. Looks quite dark, almost black as you say.
