Vintage Silhouettes Custom Hats - Official Affiliate Thread

My wife decided to get me another hat for Christmas and made a deposit in mid November.
After Christmas I emailed Art regarding felt samples etc. Over the last several weeks, emails to him and the webmaster of his site have gone unanswered.
Anyone know if he is having problems? He has always responded to email in the past.

Art is reliable.

I have just found that I have over 100 messages that have not gotten to me from my website. I can see them on the backside of the site but cannot respond to them as they are not transferring from "Contact us" to my mail server. We are working on the problem but please accept my apology if you have not heard back from me. Simply put, I haven't been getting them as they are somehow "stuck". I will update as soon as I have info.

My 5th VS Custom Hat arrived yesterday. This time it's a Honeyboy with a 3" brim. As expected @Art Fawcett did his usual work in that the quality is exquisite. The fit is perfect. Looking forward to sporting this Sunday for services.

Your 5th! What a beautiful lid, Bill! That one sure looks like my kind of hat. Do you have a picture with all 5 VS hats together?

I like your style my friend! The lines of this VS make me quiver! Great bow as usual from Art.

Wore my "Honeyboy" today for the first time. You know, as much as I like vintage fedoras there's just something about a well-made custom that can't be matched. I don't know if it's the perfect fit, 100% beaver, or exacting details and workmanship? Maybe it's knowing that this was made for me by one of the best hatters in the world? I don't know - but what I do know is - everybody should experience this at least once. AWESOME!
