Ask an Expert: Create Stand-Out Hats
This article is all about how to create custom headwear embroidery that stands out from the norm. It answers the following question:
My client wants hats that stand out from the crowd. What are some bold or nontraditional methods I can suggest?
Brian Burr of Wholesale Apparel suggests, like we do, that if your customer is looking to cover large surface areas, or unconventional parts of the cap, like the visor, that you seek out a company, like Outdoor Cap that offers custom programs in which the fabric is embroidered prior to forming the hat. Be sure to visit our embroidery blog for more tips.
Although, this isn’t your only option. Caps have come a long way in recent years. Gone are the days in which 5-panel trucker hats with stiff buckram are your only option. Today’s caps are easier to hoop, and many fabrics are soft enough to take the thread easily.
