Heat Transfer

Heat transfer is best with flat, smooth areas on hats. Beanies and woven-style hats are not the best options for heat transfers.

Make every hat a party hat

Whether it’s basic text, your brand’s logo, or a loud and colorful piece of art, hats offer a unique canvas for embroidery that can be both functional and trendy. The front of the cap makes for the most natural design location, but hats also offer a lot of room for thinking outside the box and getting creative with different embroidery locations—from the side of your head to the back and beyond.
