Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is a bond fee?
    On the initial rental quote, you will see a "Bond Fee". This Bond Fee is the cost of replacing materials if rented items are damaged. The Bond fee is refunded via Paypal if items are not damaged after GMG picks up items at end of event.
  • Why are seating charts so expensive?
    An average seating chart for 150 guests takes 10 hours from organizing names, to weeding vinyl, placing vinyl on sign or hand painting engraved names. The price not only dictates the materials used but the time and technique it takes to create a perfect and flawless product.

    That's totally okay! We are open to collaborating with you on pieces that fit your vision. This does require a $75 design fee. Once the $75 fee is paid, we will reach out to you via email to set up a consultation appt to discuss design options.
  • How long does it take to make custom pieces?
    Depending on the complexity of the design, custom pieces can take several days to weeks.
  • Returns
    Refunds and exchanges: All sales are final as these are handmade, and made to order. However, if there is an error or defect on your order, we will offer a complete refund or exchange upon return.
  • Design and Logo review
    Design and Artwork review is included with the price of the hat. We ask that files containing artwork or logo information be submitted in .SVG format. JPG can be used, but only if high quality. Low quality images not only take longer for production, but they often do not provide enough detail to produce a quality design on the patch. Digital proof can be provided upon request. Typically if the file is of high enough quality and your logo and artwork is readily visible, then proof's are not required and can slow down the production process. For intricate artwork or customized patches, a proof is recommended to ensure your vision. Artwork can be submitted via email at Grandmasongoods@gmail.com, be sure to include your purchase order number. Proofs are only created and provided after a purchase is made, this helps us to better serve our current customers.
  • Hat Care
    What happens if the patch gets wet? Our patches are treated with a water resistant coating that allows them to be as brave in the elements as you are. We want you to adventure! We do use 100% American made leather, and even with the proprietary weather proofing, we do not recommend completely submerging the hat. Over time the leather can absorb water, causing the natural oils to be drawn, this can lead to the leather becoming brittle and losing its supple quality. What happens if I accidentally submerge the hat? We want you to adventure with our hats and enjoy your life while enjoying our product. Life happens, and sometimes we fall in. If the had is submerged in fresh water then we recommend allowing it to air dry. Submersion in any liquid can reduce the quality of the leather and reduce the adhesion ability of our bonding process. If the hat is submerged in salt water, we recommend rinsing with fresh water and allowing to air dry. How do I clean my hat? As above, we do not recommend submerging the hat. Due to the numerous available over the counter cleaning products we are unable to give adequate direction with their use, as these products may damage the leather or reduce the adhesion of our bonding process. We have priced our hats that when they are ready for retirement, buying a new hat will not break the bank.
  • Shipping and Production Times
    Shipping to the lower 48 states is free and included within the purchase price. Production times vary by season and size of order. Current production times include 1-3 days for artwork/design/logo review. Production times vary based on order size. Small orders (1-5 hats) take 1-3 days. Medium orders (6-20 Hats) take 3-7 days.

Production may be delayed for larger hat orders due to additional shipping requirements. Most customers receive their hats within 2 weeks of ordering.
