How It Works
From your logo to finished hats in five simple steps.
No guesswork, no surprises. Here's exactly what happens after you place your order — and the services we offer to bring your brand to life.
No minimums • Free digital proof before production • 7–14 days, order to delivery
Five steps. Zero surprises.
Every order — embroidery or patches — follows the same proven process we've refined over 550,000 hats.
-
Pick your hat & submit your logo Day 1
Choose your hat style and color — Richardson, Flexfit, New Era, 47 Brand, Otto, and more — then upload your artwork. Vector files (.AI, .EPS, vector .PDF) work best, but send what you have and we'll let you know if adjustments are needed.
Pro tip: A vector logo file can shave days off your timeline.
-
We prepare your design 2–3 business days
For embroidery, our in-house team hand-digitizes your logo into a precise stitch file — mapping every thread path and stitch density for your exact hat fabric. For patches, we prepare your artwork for engraving or printing. Never auto-converted, always crafted.
-
You approve your free digital proof You're in control
You receive a digital proof showing exactly how your finished hat will look — placement, colors, sizing, everything. Request revisions until it's right. Nothing goes into production until you sign off.
Heads up: Approve quickly to keep your order moving — your production clock runs from approval.
-
Production & quality inspection Most of your window
Your hats are embroidered or patched on commercial-grade equipment, then every single hat passes a quality inspection before it's packed. Speed is in our name — but never at the expense of getting it right.
-
Shipped to your door Within 7–14 days total
Orders ship via UPS, FedEx, or USPS with tracking emailed the day they leave our Brandon, FL facility — arriving within the 7–14 day window. And your logo stays on file, so reorders take minutes with no setup fee ever again.
From order to delivery: just 7–14 days.

Our Services
Two crafts, one standard: premium hats that carry your brand with pride.
-
Custom Embroidery
Our specialty for over 20 years — clean, professional stitching on premium hats.
Flat Embroidery
Detailed, precise, and sleek. Captures intricate logos, text, and fine designs with a smooth, polished finish. Our most popular option — included in standard pricing.
3D Puff Embroidery
Bold and dimensional. A raised texture that makes your design pop off the front panel — best for larger, blocky design elements.
Best for: business logos, team names, text-based designs, and any brand that wants the classic embroidered look.
-
Custom Leather Patches
Crafted and laser-engraved in-house for a refined, timeless look built to last.
Engraved Leather Patch
Laser-engraved for a rich, rustic, heritage feel. Captures fine detail with sharp contrast — water, sun, and wear resistant.
Sublimated Patch
Vivid full-color sublimation that locks your design into the patch. Perfect for detailed, multi-color, or photographic logos that engraving can\u2019t capture.
Best for: outdoor brands, trades, breweries, and anyone who wants a premium, worn-in look that stands apart.
Examples of Our Work
Real decoration methods, real results. Here\u2019s what each option looks like on a finished hat.

File formats
Vector files (.AI, .EPS, vector .PDF) are best. High-res .PNG or .JPG at 300 dpi+ also work. Have something else? Send it — we'll tell you if it's workable.
-
Embroidery size limits
Front panel: up to 2.25" tall × 4.5"–5" wide. Minimum readable text height is 0.20" (5mm). We'll flag anything outside these limits during proofing.
-
What works best
Logos, text, and graphic artwork with clean lines and bold shapes. Photos and portraits can't be embroidered — they lose too much detail in thread.
-
Already have a stitch file?
We accept DST, EMB, and PXF files from previous vendors. If it meets our quality standards, your setup fee is waived.
