Editorial & Affiliate Disclosure
Last updated: August 2026
The Brim Report is written and edited by Jerry Gault. The articles, reviews, photographs, and opinions published here reflect my own research, experience, and judgment.
Editorial Independence
Manufacturers, retailers, advertisers, and affiliate programs do not determine what The Brim Report publishes or the conclusions reached in an article or review.
Receiving a product, discount, sample, or loan does not guarantee positive coverage. When a product has been supplied, loaned, discounted, or provided through another commercial arrangement, that relationship will be disclosed in the relevant article.
Unless otherwise stated, the hats, caps, books, tools, and other products discussed were purchased with my own money.
Affiliate Links
Some pages may contain affiliate links. If you purchase something through one of these links, The Brim Report may receive a small commission at no additional cost to you.
Affiliate commissions help support the website, research, photography, and production of new articles. The presence of an affiliate link does not affect the opinions expressed or guarantee that a product will be recommended.
Articles containing affiliate links will include a disclosure near the relevant links or recommendations.
Sponsored Content
Any article, post, photograph, or video created in exchange for payment will be clearly identified as sponsored content.
The Brim Report does not currently accept arrangements requiring approval of an article’s conclusions or guaranteeing favorable coverage.
Artificial Intelligence
Some illustrations appearing on The Brim Report may be created or assisted by artificial intelligence. These images will be identified when appropriate.
AI-created illustrations are used for visual presentation and should not be interpreted as historical photographs or documentary evidence. Historical claims are based on cited sources and documented research.
Accuracy and Corrections
The Brim Report aims to distinguish documented facts, personal observations, manufacturer claims, and reasonable interpretation.
