Opinions On New Hat Needed

[Catfish]

OK guys --- A good handful of our customers have been asking us about buying a hat with catfish Supply Co on it ... Not sure why anyone would want a hat with our name on it -- But I figured I would do it and sell them cheap - Figured the advertising could not hurt us ... Anyway - Just got our first sample hat in ... I will list the things my wife has already decided needs to be changed (like I get that much of a say so anyway) -- #1 - The bill is too long - This will be corrected - #2 - The colors are off - The teal will be a different shade - The Blue on the front will be a dark navy blue - The Catfish will be a light grey with just a hint of blue - with a darker grey outline ... You can not see it well on the picture , however the hat has a sandwich style on the front where you can see an outline of dark blue around the bill of the hat ...
Now I like the colo0r of this hat , however I will have an opportunity to do some different things with another color hat -- I have condsidered just changing the bill color and thread around the breathing holes in that hat .. I just do not know ... Any opinions on the current hat and also what I can do on a 2nd hat would be appreciated .. These opinions are important , because if you wouldn't condsider buying one (if you were n the market for a Catfish Supply Co hat - mind you) -- It is really useless .... Well here are the pics - Tell me tell me tell me ... Oh yes and I would like to make the www.catfishsupplyco.com on the back in thicker colors ...

Thanks ,

Catfish

I can say that the wife is right about the bill on the hat, but you done good on the velcro on the back dont change that. I hate it when its some fangdangled contraption that never works right. Well post up when you get the new one..............LATER,dAVE


P.S. Im a hat junky so keep up the good work.

LIKE THE HAT CATFISH,LET'S TALK $$$$$$$$$$$$$$ how much?

[Catfish]

For you guys - Your looking at about 10 bucks shipped .. They are about 30 days out - We are making final changes these next few days ...

I like the color too. But would a longer bill not be useful in the sunlight while fishing? Also, how about a model with mesh on the back, for a cooler noggin?

[Catfish]

I think the mesh thing sounds good , however I am not sure how it is marketable to the masses --- I may have just a few made special -- The longer bill does help in the sunlight - however it looks odd and I think that hurts the marketability -- although I have 1 I have been wearing for a few days - It is not even good and sweaty yet -- hehe

Is there any chance of getting one in a wide-brimmed model? I've been looking for a hat like one of those boonie hats used by my friends in Viet Nam. I didn't really want a camo hat, I want one with a chin strap to keep it on my head or around my neck when the boat is moving (someday)... I like the wide brim 'cause it keeps sun off my big ears in addition to my balding head...

I want one! But with the longer bill on it if possible. I'm just an old married poot that don't have to impress anyone, so I choose function over form anytime, I used to have an old khaki hat that had a really long bill and it was a great help in the Texas sun. It finally got so old and raggedy and moldy that my wife threw it away when I wasn't looking. I still bring that up when she wants me to do something I don't want to do.

and get a cap that will fit the heads of us larger guys. That style of cap don't look good on a big guy. Makes us look like we got pointy little heads.

Maybe you could sell two models, one long-brimmed model with a pocket for stink-bait for fishin' and a short brimmed style for goin' courtin' and weddings.
