Mickey Mouse Ear Hats in MK???

[Hirpa]

My DS and DD want the popular Mickey Mouse Ear Hats when we get to WDW in May. Anybody know the cost and where to get them in the MK? DS said it won't be like he's at WDW unless he has one! Do they personalize them? Extra cost to do so? graemlins/mickey.gif

Thank you!

The place to buy them in the MK is called The Chapeau. It is one of the first shops you come to when you enter the MK. It will be on your right, beside the Expo Hall. If I remember correctly, it is less than $5 and yes, they monogram them free! smile.gif Have a great trip! graemlins/muscles.gif

Wow, that's a really good price! What are they made out of? Do they last a long time?

The hat portion is made of sturdy felt, and the ears themselves are plastic. We bought some in '99 for our son and he plays with the all the time. Actually, he had them on this morning! :D They've held up just fine.

We bought some for our other son last month, and there is one thing I did notice. On the pair we got in '99 there was a strap to go around the chin to hold the hat in place, but the newer ones don't have that. Could be potential for losing them very easy in the parks, in my opinion. I like the strap!

As I remember it, the infant size has a strap, but the larger sizes do not. graemlins/mickey.gif (This was as of last November.)

A few weeks ago, I was rummaging through our old toys, and I found my very first Mickey Mouse hat with, "Eddy" monogrammed on the back, from my very first trip back in 1990. I just stood there and almost started to cry-I couldn't believe I had actually found it!

Definately try to purchase one-you never know when Disney's magic will enchant you again! smile.gif

I try to purchase a new set of ears each time I go. They are a relatively cheap souvenir compared to other things. Plus sometimes they have special versions for celebrations, I have some great ones from the 25th Anniversary.

I didn't know there was more than one size, and they didn't ask us when we bought them this time. I will be well aware next time. Thanks for pointing that out! smile.gif

Yes, the Chapeau is the best place to get the Mickey ears with monograming. However, I believe they also do it in Fantasyland at The Mad Hatter.(beside the departed Legend of the Lion King)
