Pirate Petee Posted June 8, 2005 Share Posted June 8, 2005 I just got my captain jack style hat from Captain Jacks Pirate Hats yesterday and I just had to say Oh My God. These hats are beautiful to be hold. The professionalism, quality and time that he must have put into these hats are phenomenal they truly are works of art. Every dubloon was well spent on this buy. I would recomened them to any of you out there. He has the last say when it comes to pirate style hats. I'll post pics later this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cut-throat Posted June 24, 2005 Share Posted June 24, 2005 I was thinkin about buyin the Blackbeard- Traditional Black Tricorn, from Captain Jack's. But I can't make up me mind whether to buy the untreated, or the oil/wax treated.......What do ye think ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pirate Petee Posted June 24, 2005 Author Share Posted June 24, 2005 I would have to say oil wax coated. It just looks and feels so authentic. But its all up ta you mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cut-throat Posted June 25, 2005 Share Posted June 25, 2005 Thanks fer the advice Petee. I was beginnin to lean the oil / wax way. I read somewheres that that be how they did it back then. I want to get as authentic as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silent Posted June 25, 2005 Share Posted June 25, 2005 I really want to get one, I cant deside though, the balls up in the air for the The MacKay or The Blackbeard, leaning more to the blackbeard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cut-throat Posted June 25, 2005 Share Posted June 25, 2005 The MacKay looks pretty nice as well matey. The cleft front peak be interestin, but I be with ye on this, Blackbeard all the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt. Morgan Posted June 26, 2005 Share Posted June 26, 2005 Just for info, I brought my treated Blackbeard on a sailing trip to the Bahamas, where we were caught in Tropical Storm Arlene, and then wore the hat in Port Royal, Jamaica, during the same storm, and the oil / wax finish held up beautifully... not only does it look authentic, it WORKS!!

Black Jack Morgan Posted July 9, 2005 Share Posted July 9, 2005 I gots me own McKay hat from the postman just this week. I have to admit, mate, I was a bit worried about the "biforcated" (as Capn Jack be callin it) peak...'twas a toss up for me between the McKay and the Capt Jack style. But once I got to hold this beaut in me hands...all me misgivins were scuttled! Tis a fine hat o' quality make and any man on the account worth callin himself a pyrate would be honored to wear one o' these hats! Oil/wax treated tis the way to go, matey. Get one if ye can, ye'll never regret it. "We are raised to honor all the wrong explorers and discoverers....thieves planting flags, murderers carrying crosses.

Cut-throat Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 I just placed me order for the oil/wax treated Blackbeard tricorn just last night. I can't wait ! MacKay said that he was back logged for three weeks, but I don't care. I be so excited. I'll post pics once I get it. Thanks again everyone, ye helped me make the right choice !

HildeKitten Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 I want to get the scallywag! I shall have to save up money for that one :) It'll be far cooler and better quality then the tricorn I got in Venice a couple of years ago >< House of Secrets Incorporated Fashion and costume design For all your piracy needs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt. Lazarus Gage Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 I have to say they are great hats, I have the Long John Silver in the oil/wax, the Barbossa in the oil/wax, and the scallywag (which I modified a bit ) The only problem is, I can never decide which one I like the best......

roytheodd Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 I just received my Jean Lafitte last week. Took about 12 weeks from placing the order to placing the bicorne on my head. Every bit worth the wait though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
