Custom Hats - Over 40 Years of Premium Quality

Wholesale Hats has been focused on delivering premium quality custom embroidered hats and apparel. We tailor the embroidery pattern of your logo to the unique characteristics of each hat style and fabric. As expert embroidery digitizers, we understand that the fabric and construction of a hat play a critical role in how the design should be digitized. To achieve flawless embroidery the entire team needs to be on point. Here is how Wholesale Hats makes sure every stitch is perfect:

Custom Hats - The Art of Digitizing

Optimize for Shapes & Fabrics

The foundation of great embroidery starts with an experienced digitizing artist. The embroidery digitizer is trained to turn your digital logo into a piece of art made with a needle and thread. We translate your logo into an embroidery digitized file that is ready for the embroidery machine to produce. Our artists optimize every design, taking into considering the hat shape and fabric, as each aspect has specific requirements needed to achieve quality custom embroidery.

  • Beanies: Proper underlay in custom embroidery like zig-zag and double underlay allows the design to not bury into the beanie material.  As the beanie material can become distorted. We apply push and pull compensation in the digitized design to address the stretching of the fabric during embroidery.
  • Visors: Must consider the small area for embroidery. Most visors have a maximum embroidery area of: 5.50” inches wide and only 1.25” inches tall. So most have a linear shaped custom logo.
  • 5-Panel Hats: Have a pinch fold at the center front of the hat. The fold comes down pretty low on some of the hats resulting in a limited 2-inch tall embroidery space on the center front.
  • 6-Panel Hats: The center seam does not cause any issues for embroidery as some customers have concerns. This hat shape offers the largest embroidable area of 2.5 inches tall and 5.5 inches wide.

Custom Hats - Mesh Embroidery

Custom embroidery on the mesh of a trucker hat is very popular. Embroidering a custom logo on a trucker mesh hat requires experience with digitizing custom embroidered logos for hats. Embroidering on hats is a very specialized field. A knowledgeable digitizer and embroidery operator understands the specific requirements to produce custom embroidery on the back two mesh panels of the trucker hat. Our experienced digitizers set up the stitch file to account for the open weave of the mesh panels.

Key techniques include:

  • Slowing down the embroidery machine to ensure crisp clean lines.
  • Using specialized backing depending on the custom logo stitch count and if the logo has fine details or dense embroidery areas.
  • Color coordinating thread colors that work well on every hat color ordered with a mockup for approval.

Our skilled and experienced hat embroidery machine operators, digitizers and headwear focus work together to make sure your logo looks flawless. Even when we are working on challenging materials like mesh.

Custom Hats - Color Coordination

Your logo can use different color threads to match different color hats at no additional fee. Wholesale Hats includes these color coordinated mockups on every hat color. Thus allowing you to see the final product(s) look before production. This step ensures your confidence that everything is going to look how you envision. With decades of experience, our art department color coordinator matches your design’s thread colors to each hat color. Every new and reorder receives a detailed art approval mockup. This service is included at no additional cost.

Custom Hats - Overseas Program

Our custom overseas hat program starts from scratch. Whether you want to copy a current hat style or create something new we have been importing custom hats for over 40 years. If you are looking for specific customization our overseas hat program allows you to create a custom hat style with a minimum order of 288 pieces.

Overseas customization allows the hat to be decorated with options not possible in USA domestic production, such as:

  • Custom hat colors not available in stock in the USA
  • Embroidery and patch placement are applied before the hat construction. Allowing for embroidery locations that are not possible once the hat is constructed.
  • Custom printing tape seams inside the hat with a company logo or tagline.
  • Keeps costs down when embroidering multiple locations and high stitch count designs.

Whether you are promoting your brand or stocking retail shelves, the overseas program gives you the ability to manufacture something unique and different.

Custom Hats - Retail-Ready

Most are not aware of the different types of production facilities available for custom embroidery. Only insiders understand that more than 85 percent of the embroidery production factories in the USA are producing a lower quality embroidery and products often refereed to as Promotional Products. The promotional quality allows for a lowered standard of quality control as the products are free and not for resale.

The remaining 15 percent of US-based embroiderers are producing at the very high-quality standard required to sell products in a retail store. Wholesale Hats is focused on delivering retail-ready custom hats. Detailed quality production standards that make us leaders in the industry. Maybe this is why we have been selected as the recommended custom hat embroidery manufacturer for Richardson Hats.
