Popular Blank Hat Embroidery Techniques​

Check out our most popular embroidery techniques to customize your hats.

Raised 3D Embroidery

3D Puff Hat Embroidery

3D Puff Embroidery, also known as 3D embroidery, adds depth and dimension to designs by creating a raised effect. This is achieved by placing foam beneath the embroidery threads which lifts the design off the hat for a bold look that stands out.

Embroidered Patches

Patch Style Embroidery

Embroidered patches are created by stitching a design onto fabric and then cutting it into shape. These patches are attached to hats with embroidery, heat pressed adhesive, or Velcro. They can be produced in bulk, making them a cost-effective option for businesses and clothing brands.

Traditional Embroidery

This is the traditional embroidery technique commonly seen on embroidered hats. It uses run stitches to fill in designs while borders are created with a satin stitch. For the tan/brown hat shown to the right, a full satin stitch is used, but the black hat combines both stitch types. If you have a preferred hat embroidery look you want to achieve then please feel free to let us know!

Do you first produce one before production?

Absolutely!

We follow a thorough three-step approval process to ensure your satisfaction:

1) Quote Approval 

Review and approve the pricing details.

2) Artwork Approval

Confirm your design is exactly as you want it.

3) Sample Before Production

We’ll send you a sample before production text or email with a photo of the first screen print to make sure you’re happy with the result before full production begins.

This process ensures you’ll love your custom merch!

Can I order a sample?

Due to the time, labor, and material costs associated with embroidering custom hats, we have a minimum order requirement of 50 units.

If that doesn’t work for you, we’re happy to discuss your concerns and find a solution that eliminates the need for a sample. For example:

  • If you are concerned about which blank hat to use then we'll order you a blank sample pack
  • If you're not sure how the design will look on the hat then we'll create free mockups
  • If you're not sure if the design will sell then we encourage you to run a pre-sale 
  • If you're not sure how the embroidery will feel then we'd encourage you to stop by our showroom to feel the examples we have

Keep in mind that within our minimum order, you can mix different styles, sizes, and hat colors, as long as the design remains the same across all the hats

How fast can you produce?

Our standard turn around is 7 to 10 business days.  But, we offer 24 hour rush embroidery service.

Please give us a call as soon as possible if you need to receive your order tomorrow. 

How does pricing work?

Our pricing is determined by three key factors:

  1. Quantity
  2. Stitch Count
  3. Embroidery locations

Since we are factory direct and wholesale, we’re able to accommodate nearly any budget. Our team will work closely with you to explore options and ensure your project stays within your budget.

What is the maximum embroidery size for hats?

Standard embroidery sizes vary, but typically 2.25” to 2.5” in height and 4” to 5” in width for front panels. Side and back embroidery sizes depend on the hat style.

Can I customize multiple locations on the hat (front, back, side)?

Yes! Many customers add embroidery on multiple locations, including the front panel, side panels, and back closure. Additional embroidery locations may have extra costs.

How durable is embroidered text and logos on hats?

Embroidery is extremely durable and long-lasting. It withstands regular wear and washing better than printed designs. We use Madeira Polyneon threads which are the best in the industry.

What type of artwork works best for hat embroidery?

Simple and bold designs with clean lines and minimal detail work best for hat embroidery. Small text or intricate designs may not translate well in embroidery. Vector files or high-resolution images are ideal when submitting your artwork to us.
