Does anyone know the source of the 16ga hats?
I've been impressed with the style and quality of the 16ga hats and would like to get in touch with the distributor as another group that I belong to is having trouble finding a good source.
Thanks

I also liked the 16 ga. hats.
Last week, I stopped by a client of mine to find out he now has a factory in, of all places, Viet Nam. He gave me a few samples of his hats, made in Nam. I have to admit... not bad. And priced right. I would assume you wait a bit longer, but there is a dramatic savings. Send me a P.M. and I'll forward you the guys name.
Of course, you will have to send me a hat when all is done. A little blackmail never hurt anyone. LOL |

| Oops, I cut the tag off mine, but as I recall it was NOT made in the USA. |

Call or send an email about the specific 16ga.hat you like and I'll give the make and model number. Our hats are made by several different companies and virtually all hats are made overseas. Kinda like Citoris. If I'm not in ask for Betsy.
Thanks, -Doug
