The very first Hast customer
No, it wasn't one of our mums! We promise. We already told you about our first offices (aka Thomas' flat) for our 5th anniversary. And when our very first customer walked into that showroom—a place every bit as quirky as our head of production—we almost felt like we were running an illicit operation! All three of us grinning from ear to ear, despite the nerves. And a few weeks later, we ended up dressing our customer's entire circle of friends! It felt unreal, yet it made us truly believe in our project. A heartwarming memory for life! #neverforget
The most creative email
We've received plenty of supportive and encouraging emails (and they always mean the world to us!). But when one of our customers sent us this poetic, magical message, we imtely awarded him the “Wonder of Wonders” prize.
Extract: “(…) that my wife looks at me with such loving eyes whenever I wear your shirts—to the point where I wonder if you don't weave unicorn hair into your fabric or something (…)”
To which we simply reply: “Sir, it is not the shirt that makes you look good, it is you who makes the shirt look good.” #mHastgic
The cheekiest return
Most of the returns we receive are fairly straightforward: a shirt slipped into a small parcel along with a return form (simple and efficient).
So when a box big enough to hold 40 shirts arrived on our doorstep, we couldn't help but wonder! But upon opening it (after some hesitation…) surprise! Small, colourful balloons were serving as cushioning, keeping the shirt perfectly in place inside the box. A customer from Brittany who, after a few parcel exchanges, had finally found his perfect fit with us. We were so touched that we even considered designing a striped piece just for him. #lifeincolour
The customer who joined the team
Previously a (very) satisfied customer, he took the initiative to apply and join us! Today, he's an integral part of the team—meet Christophe, who joined us a week ago! When he turned up in his Hast shirt, bringing along his infectious passion for menswear, we simply couldn't say no. We're thrilled to have him on board! ;) #flattered
