A Guide To Designing And Customizing Baseball Caps

For many people, baseball caps are an iconic part of the American experience. They're comfortable and casual, perfect for any occasion, and can even help you pass as an airman or soldier if you want to get away with something small, like passing through an airport without having to produce ID. At their best, baseball caps can be used to channel your own creativity and individuality into something that makes you feel good every time you put it on your head. Here's how to get started customizing your very own baseball cap!

Partner with a Manufacturer that Has Strong Relationships with Top Manufacturers

When searching for a manufacturing partner, you will want to look for a company that has been in business long enough to have formed good relationships with top factories. Thanks to the lower prices they can secure from factories, these companies can get you an amazing product at a lower price. Their expertise will help guide you through each step of the process of getting a product created overseas. They can advise what styles and colors sell best. If your baseball caps are made of premium fabrics, they can make sure it holds up well and won’t fall apart after just one wash.

Customize Your Baseball Caps

Now that you have a partner, it's time to add some flair. Personalize your cap by adding text to make it even more unique. Text is a popular design choice when designing caps. Design options include size, style, color, and placement on the cap, so you have plenty of flexibility in deciding what is most appropriate for your business or organization.

Choose One of the Following Options for a Traditional Baseball Cap:

• The 5-panel design gives this hat a classic look.
• The best baseball cap material is 100% cotton twill, but all materials can be used.
• Choose a 5-panel profile to keep the classic shape.
• Choose a curved bill shape to fit the traditional baseball hat silhouette.
• Choose adjustable metal tri-glide cap closure for a stylish look.
• The profile height of a baseball cap should be medium if you're hoping to achieve a traditional appearance.

Besides the above, you can customize your custom baseball hat with stitching, embroidery, and printing.

Approve a Mockup

Go over a mockup of your cap with a designer, to make sure it's what you had in mind. It's fine to do small tweaks or ask for things to be clarified but remember that some designs may not work as easily as others, and it's up to you to make those tough calls. Experts might make suggestions on what will sell best based on trends. After all, it is their business, and they have data on what styles will likely be more popular than others.

Sell or Give Away Your Caps

If your business is just getting started, you can sell them on your website or local Craigslist, if you live in a larger area, but it may be easiest to give them away to family and friends. Getting free advertising is always a plus, especially if your design has people making inquiries. People will pay attention to how cool a cap looks, over how well it keeps a head cool or warm.
