Let customers speak for us
from 135 reviewsGreat store with a cool collection of items. I love the hat.

Wallet was so well made and my son loved it! The personal touch and great service was much appreciated.

My only recommendation for the future is a "gift" option where you don't put your logo on the shipping box. ;P
Beautiful, well-made belt. I gave it to my partner for Christmas. He loves it. I try to buy goods that will go the distance, which is why I purchased from Hawkins & Co. I was able to look at pieces in person in the store first, so I knew I was buying quality. I also like supporting small local businesses. Highly recommend.
