Wow...really nice. I like the color and the logo. The only thing I would possibly do without is the flames (it's a little too flashy and abstract for my taste). I think a hooded sweatshirt or long sleeve t-shirt in that color (or even a dark brown) with that logo would be awesome!

Very nice! I would wear it with or without the flames. If you offered with and without flames I might go for the one without, but it would be a tough choice. I like the base color of the hat a lot.

Too bad you're not making the clothes yourself - they would probably last forever and I could afford a whole wardrobe of them.

I'd be down for one. I'm not crazy about the flames though. Maybe a green bill vintage style? Just a thought but either way I'm game. And ya need to get some of them decals goin too James!

also not a big fan of the flames, but otherwise its a slick lookin hat! i think full camo with white letters would look good. dont know how expensive it would be or any of the liscensing restrictions, but putting your logo on a fishouflage hat would be the best! id buy one a few more for backups!

I think it looks nice, would be good to have two options, and when you begin working on sweatshirts, I would prefer one without a hood. Everyone has a hoody, but I think sweatshirts are more comfortable without a hood especially in late fall or cold weather situations when you have to layer. Can't wait to see the clothing when you have them ready......Hopefully available for the Christmas season?

Just put in an order for these plus a nice typical looking hat. I will post a pic once they send me a computer mock up. Thanks everyone! I would have only made the camo flame ones and then only about half of you would have wanted a hat!

Not big on flames but excellent way to advertise your excellent products .A plain hat might not get noticed as much.I would stick with the camo flames I think you'll sell more.

James, I like the hat, the lettering style above the muskie, and the muskie being embroidered (looks embroidered to me if my old eyes are working today).

I know there can be an increased cost to make embroidered logo clothing but imho the logo and clothing looks better. I'm willing to pay a reasonable extra cost for
embroidered muskie clothing.

I would also like to see a summer hat with maybe a mesh that has bigger holes than what seems to be the standard mesh used on most/all hats I've seen/had. The holes just don't seem to let very much air in for us that sweat alot.

On other clothing such as hoodies and sweat shirts I would like to see a large embroidered muskie on the front-not a small one over the heart as an example.

Lastly, a t-shirt that has a v-neck rather than the typical round type neck. Ones with a v-neck just seem to be cooler and more comfortable to wear in hot weather. Some of us just get too hot and feel like were being strangled in those typical type t-shirt neck styles. I know I would buy the v-neck, but would never buy the round type neck. Or how about a front that has a neck with 3 or 4 buttons that can be opened.

Al.

I like the top one slightly more than the bottom. The flame is sweet IMO.
I would suggest the 2nd option be completely different than the first. The hats are essentially the same hat. Maybe choose a different base color? idk... just throwing out ideas.

Id pimp it. At first I thought the Brown flames were more hunting related but on a second thought it has a nice Fall theme to it and would be great to wear in September/October. A sky Blue or White cap with Blue or fishoflage flames for Summer. Yeah' id pimp it.

Here is the other one. The red is more darker maroon than the picture shows. Flash added the color more bright than it actually is.

Hope to have these ready to go by Jan. 1 2013.

James, what kind of closure does this have in the back, hook and loop (meaning Velcro)?

Velcro. My personal favorite. I have had the metal ones loosen on me before.

Today I went to your T.I page to order the new hat and didn't see any listed or couldn't find them.
Are they ready?

Hi Ron,

Sorry, I need to get these up on my website.

Just shoot me an email for what you want and I can send you an invoice. They are $10/hat. How does $13 delivered sound? I have a few camo ones left as well as the red ones.

Thanks,
James
