Extremely disappointed. Here for the week working. Went for a walk last night, window shopped while this place was closed. When back today while open to really look. I had picked out approximately $350 in items I wanted to get. Much was gifts so I needed to verify if family would wear, etc. Started to take a photo of two flag hoodies. The point was to send to my daughter to ask which one would fit her grandmother better. Im a single dad and have zero skills in that stuff. The, presumably owner, called me out in front of all the other customers in the store for taking a photo ... like my motive is to steal his designs. All the the stuff he had can be bought off amazon for a fraction of the cost ... it was just the nostalgia of it. Well now Ill tell my family the nostalgia of an old store owner who fears I might replicate his flag hoodie by taking a photo of two folded versions. And because he embarrassed me so, I walked out of his store. To his benefit he did tell me I could take the pic as I was leaving. I had already told him previously when looking at other items that I would be back the next evening to make the purchases all at once. But after being embarrassed so all I could say is ... Im sorry I dont want to break any rules. I wish the old guy well. However my money is obviously no good at his store. So he honestly can kiss my $350 sale goodbye
Ship's Hatch is the BEST nautical gift store in the United States. I've been purchasing fabulous, custom-made gifts there for 25 years, including Ship's Clocks, Navy Ball Caps, Plaques, and insignia. Please IGNORE the poor review on this google site (and it has no text with it) ... Ship's Hatch is OUTSTANDING, and the customer service is too. You should visit! By far the best merchant in Crystal City and all of the DC Area
