Tried to return a cap ( too small and cheaply made). Followed directions to return and emails bounced. Tried main email and it bounced. Company seems fake and certainly not customer centric.

They imply high quality the reality is that when you eventually get the cap over 2 weeks you find it’s poor quality made in China under the Alibaba group and shipped via Belgium.

Scam. These hats come from China mass produced not lovingly made in London. Waste of time and money. Do not order from them.

Very unhelpful

Ordered 2 x caps as 2 separate gifts.

They arrived in one plastic bag with one information card. I emailed the company explaining these were 2 separate gifts & requesting another logoed bag & card.

The reply was 'each of our hats is sent with a single card in the same parcel & we don't send additional bags & cards' I don't really understand what this means but the message seems to be no.

I was simply expecting each hat to be in its own bag with its own information card.

Misleading advertising: don’t be taken in

Like others, I wish I had read the reviews beforehand, but I stupidly believed the hype and ordered as a Christmas gift for my hat loving brother.

Very definitely a scam: cheap materials, mass produced rather than hand made, and made in China (the label in the cap being the only honest element!) despite the extensive marketing both on social media and on the website that claims hand made to order and a strong British quality item. Very much breaches the Trades Descriptions Act.

Don’t do it……

Not what it's made out to be

Despite the London address this does not appear to be a British company. The London address is a block of flats, and there appears to be no Companies House listing.
The hat I received was made in China, from thin denim. It had no maker's label sewn in it. The name of the company on the accompanying postcard was spelled wrong - Winston & Wulfred.
It did come in a nice ziplock plastic bag.
Not the quality I was led to believe. But nonetheless usable. You'd be better looking for a better product at a abetter price somewhere else...

The quality of these hats is…Rubbish

The quality of these hats is unbelievable rubbish, they claim to that they are not mass produced, yet as soon as you receive your order you can tell that they are made in a Chinese sweat shop worth no more than £5.00. don't waste your money, I could not even get it too fit.
