Testimonials

My Father cried when he saw the jacket. As far as he knows there are only 3 left from his ship that are still alive and one called him for his 85th so it was a full circle birthday. Thanks for helping make it special.

This was my first time visiting your site and we ordered a hat and shirt with my father-in-law's ship monogrammed. We were very pleased with the web site, the shopping experience and the quality of the products. The order was processed quickly and we received the items in time for Father's Day. You have a great site and company. Keep up the good work.

I have bought two ship hats from you. We are very happy with our purchases, however, the thrill on my Dad's face and my Uncle's face was beyond words. They had tears in their eyes and recounted (all day long and to anyone who would listen), their serving on their ships. Thank you for your quick service and great quality of product.

…Honestly I didn’t know what to expect…but you and your crew did themselves proud. I can’t thank you enough. A very proud sailor who will wear this jacket as long as Davey Jones will allow…I would be honored to be listed as one very satisfied customer. As stated earlier I am a proud veteran and proud of my service. And showing it off with a great jacket is a very good way. I can't wait. What did John Travolta say in the Movie Staying Alive… " I want to Strut" and wearing this jacket.. I will Strut..

I was surprised to be treated so well by your company. That is not a given in today's business world.

My father LOVED the windbreaker with the name of his ship on it. As a matter of fact, he put it on and wore it in the house the whole time I was there. He's 83, and hard to buy for, so I appreciate being able to find meaningful gifts for him. The website was easy to navigate, and the shipping was prompt. The quality was exactly what I expected.

“…Everybody sure did like the new quality of the products that were purchased. The long sleeve shirts sold in 2 days and people were asking for more. Thanks again for the great service.”

“I received a call today from my friend regarding his receipt of the Metcalf Plaque. Both he and his wife were "deeply moved" by the gift. Thank you for your involvement in making this a special gift for him. Also thanks for returning Paul's picture (as you said you would). That picture is very important. I'm looking forward to next year's trip to see the plaque first hand. In the meantime, I willrelish the fact that my friend is delighted, if not overwhelmed, with the recognition! Again, thank you for your thoughtfulness and professionalism. You are in the right business. I wish you many years of good health and business success.”

“Thank you. The jacket and hat looked terrific. My dad loved them and they went over big at his naval reunion. He wears them all the time. Thanks again,”

“I received my order today and just wanted to say thank you again for such excellent service. The hat and windbreaker were a big hit. Will definitely keep you in mind for the future. Thanks so much.”

“The family event went well yesterday and my 87 year old cousin was beside himself when he saw his CVE-79 cap. The cap plus other Naval info. on his ship we put together really took him back to his time on the ship (1944-1945) when it was sunk.”

CUSTOMER SERVICE:
"The customer service from History Shopping (HS) was outstanding. On Sunday evening (11/16/08) around 5:56 PM I ordered via the HS web site, an USS Ommaney Bay CVE-79 Cap. History Shopping has an OTHER COMMENTS section on their web site. I told HS that I really needed this cap for a family celebration on Saturday, 11/22/08. Would you believe, the HS folks hand carried my package to Fed Ex by 1 PM Monday, 11/17/08. Fed Ex Home Delivery delivered the package to my home in St. Louis, MO. on Wednesday, 11/19/08 at 11: 45 AM. What fantastic service!"
