Apparently there was a national back order. Hopefully they are still in good condition.

That's the main reason I wanted them as well to be honest. Price is great on these and lots of account of them being very bright and lasting a long time. Did you get the branded or unbranded version?

I think there were a few guys who were waiting on flexfits to be made instead of snapbacks. Figured I'd give a heads up here first before releasing the Facebooks on them. Both sized flexfits and classic unstructured with metal clasps. Got quite a few different colors available this time around.

Good to hear, glad you like it. I really like the snapback version too, but the snapback is just way too big of a profile for my head. Makes me look like Super Mario so I'm glad I was able to make these work.

Yep completely hear that! And I am already gearing up for the holiday season so these should remain stocked and available for a good while.
