I normally don't go into Lids, but I figured I'm at the mall so, why not? The employee was friendly, and talked to us about the different types of hats they had and the organization of the hats (which is 80% sports). He does have an embroidery sewing machine on site to quick make any hat your heart desires. You could walk out of the store with a hat that has your name if you felt like it, which is pretty neat. I didn't realize that was something Lids offered, and that definitely deserves a shout out so others can know about it too. I'd also like to say, I love that a place that only sells hats exists and stays open. There aren't as many specialty stores that are so specific and stay open so I can only imagine they get people who swear by their hats and come in all the time. I just might become one of those people. read more
