General Wheel Hat Ordering
Information:

Please send all emails to:
WheelHat@gmail.com

If you are ordering a standard hat model and paying with paypal or a credit card, please use the PayPal checkout buttons located beneath each hat model for payment. Should you prefer or if PayPal does not take the order (happens occasionally), please e-Mail your order to us. Please be sure to include the order info list below in your email. If paying by mail or if you need custom options or custom shipping, then please let us know by e-Mail.

ORDER INFO LIST:
When you contact us, PLEASE provide us with the following information:


• the model number & short description of your hat choice
• size measurements (as per instructions below, ie. head measurement & hat size)
• shipping address

• any time constraints or deadlines for your order

• color choices for leather and fabric


Please take a moment to familiarize yourself with the other ordering details on this page.

How to Measure your Head:
If at all possible, we feel it is best to let someone else measure your head with a soft sewing tape measure. We need the actual measurement in inches, straight around your head from about 1 inch above the eyebrow. The tape should be Comfortably Snug; NOT TOO tight, nor TOO loose. We also need your modern hat size as well. Having both the measurement and hat size allows us to achieve a more accurate, custom fit.

Standard Wheel Hat Options:
Our Standard Wheel Hat (WHWL-N) includes navy wool fabric, calico lining fabric and a black leather visor, and no chin strap. Please let us know if you would like to change any of these choices.
Visor color: natural, brown or black
Visor front edge tooled trim line - yes or no
Wool fabric color: Dark Navy, Black. Other colors offered upon fabric availability. (For color options &/or customer supplied fabric details, please contact us.)
Chin Straps: We normally use 2-3oz. leather chin straps, which include rectangle, light wt. brass buckles, and plain brass buttons.
Due to high cost of metals, our Silver buckles are no longer available.
Chin Strap Buttons: In addition to plain brass buttons, we offer Plain White Brass buttons (not pictured), Dragoon Eagle "D" shield buttons and General Service Eagle brass buttons for an additional fee of $8.00 per set of two buttons. Sorry, there are no Silver buttons. Please let us know your choice at the time of your order. All buttons are subject to availability. See pics below.

Exchanges & Returns:
Over time, we have found that measuring correctly and also including your known normal hat size with your wheel hat order, eliminates the need for exchanges and refunds. However, both are still options.

To exchange a wheel hat for another size, color or other options, please return it insured, in NEW condition. There is a 25% re-stocking fee. We will send you an invoice for the exchange. In the box, please send a note to let us know the details of what you would like in exchange. Also include a check or money order for the invoiced amount to cover re-stocking, shipping & handling.

If you would like a refund for a hat, please return it, insured and in NEW condition, with a brief description of why it is being returned. We will refund the price of the hat only, less all fees for shipping & handling charges.

All Exchanges and Returns must be made within 30 days of the receipt of your purchase. Product must be in unworn, NEW condition and accompanied by our original invoice. All returns must be insured for original purchase total. We can't accept used items for refund or exchange. Returns without an invoice will be for "in-house" credit only and calculated as Exchanges above.

Please ship the insured item to:
