Video Segment of Optimo on Fox News Chicago

Agent 5 in Chicago was nice enough to send me a tape of this segment of Fox News Chicago back in February, I think. I have just now figured out how to get it on the internet. It's a little crude, as I had to video it with my digital camera, then put that on the computer. In addition, my camera cut off the last 30 seconds or so. Anyway, I thought that some of you may like to look at it. The size is only 6mb, so the quality is a little low. If any of you guys want a higher quality version, I can throw the 50mb version up at my website, or drop you a cd into the mail if you don't have access to broadband internet.

It's a neat video. You get to see them working on hats, and some of the hats in the shop. The one mistake that I saw the reporter make was with regard to the Montecristi. She said it has 14,000 weaves per square inch, when I am thinking she probably meant 1400.
