HATS ARE NOT RETURNABLE
VINTAGE HATS ARE NOT PERFECT. THEY ARE WORN AND HAVE HISTORY, TALES TOLD IN THEM, SONGS SUNG IN THEM; THEY HAVE SLEPT UNDER THE STARS AND RIDDEN IN THE RAIN, AND THEREFORE HAVE THE SIGNS OF A LIFE WELL SPENT. SIZES SOMETIMES ARE SLIGHTLY OFF AS A RESULT OF WEAR OR RESHAPING OVER TIME. THEY HAVE IMPERFECTIONS!! THEY CAN BE RUGGED. SIGNS OF A LIFE, SO FAR, WELL SPENT. SO AGAIN, HATS ARE NOT RETURNABLE!
