JJ always does a good job. This time I hit a snag. I had ordered two caps. A week or so later I received a notice from DHL that I had a package pending from Germany. I had no idea what this was, and was told that to receive the package I needed to submit either my passport number or drivers license number. I was unwilling to submit personal information so I guess the package was returned to Germany.

Thank you for your feedback and for your continued trust in JJ Hat Center. We’re sorry for the confusion surrounding this shipment. To offer our customers a wider selection and keep items available, we fulfill orders from both our New York and European inventory. In this case, your caps were shipped from our warehouse in Europe. We completely understand your hesitation when DHL requested personal identification information, especially when you were not expecting an international shipment. We are sorry that this resulted in the package being returned. Best regards Jérôme CEO

My experience was excellent. I have been shopping JJHC since 2018. I would have given 5 stars but the free cork strip inlays mentioned with the order were not included on delivery :(

My husband really likes his hat, it's made well and the fit is perfect. I gave the company a 4 because of the poor instructions to initiate an exchange, and the following E-mails that were not at all clear in the process. They were however very quick in sending the replacement we needed.
