When you think of custom branded apparel or merch, what comes to your mind? If you're like most people, you probably think of T-Shirts, hoodies, or tank tops.
You can find more information on our web, so please take a look.
While this merch is a good starting point, your retail program doesn't have to fit inside such a small box. A robust merch program won't just appeal to some of your customers, it should offer attractive items to all of your customers.
From a creative standpoint, the purpose of a branded merchandise program is to create kick-a** gear that people want to wear. But at a practical level, you need to think about the user experience (ux) that your customers have when they wear your branded merch.
How does your customer experience your branded merchandise program? Is your clothing something that they simply wear when they mow the lawn, or wear as pajamas? Or, do your customers actually reach for your merch as their first choice when they go out in public? These are important questions to consider because they will determine the type of clothing you offer.
Quality custom embroidered hats are a perfect way to broaden the appeal of your merchandise line, create a great user experience, and add unique style to your product lines.

Custom embroidered hats have a quality look and are long-lasting
Have you ever been to a conference and received a poor quality hat? I have, and can you guess what I did with it? I didn't wear it.
Cheaply made hats can easily fall apart. They reflect poorly on your brand, and people throw them away or wear them one time.
Quality and comfort are paramount considerations when it comes to the UX of your branded merch line. Quality and comfort speak. It seems obvious and intuitive, but too few brands sell quality branded merchandise because:
Embroidered hats overcome these pitfalls because they are a quality item when they are created with a solid blank:
The stitching on embroidered hats is durable.
Your hat feels like it is retail-quality
Your hats won't fall apart, and your customers will continue to wear them because they look and feel great.
Hats are more convenient than other garments because you don't have to wash them.
Embroidered hats are easy for your customers to put on when they go out with friends or spend time in public.
Hats are unisex:
Unlike other articles of apparel, many hats are unisex and appeal to multiple demographics. You have dad hats, trucker, foam trucker, rope hats, bucket hats, wide brim, and beanies. Because of the wide variety of selection, there is a look and fit for everyone.
How often do people wear comfy sweatshirts or T-Shirts because of how they feel? Even if somebody doesn't know (that much) about your brand, there's a good chance that they would probably wear your hat.
Selecting a size and fit for hats is easier than with other custom apparel
While only snapback hats are one-size-fits all, its easier in general to choose hats that are the correct size for your customers. Sizing, cut, and feel for other articles of apparel come with additional considerations, that you don't have to think as hard about when choosing a hat.
Hats are great for year-round wear and different occasions
Hats don't go out of season. They help protect people's skin from harmful UV rays during Summer, and keep their heads warm throughout chilly winter months.
Hats are an article of clothing suitable for many occasions including:
Boating
Lounging
Everyday wear
Camping
Swimming
Going to the bar
Going out with friends
Running
Going to a game
Attending a concert
You get the point: hats are great for pretty much everything besides formal events, but there are formal hats for even those.
From a UX standpoint, all of these factors are ideal! Customer's will love your hat because it is incredibly functional for the above reasons.
How embroidered hats can appeal to people that aren't customers from a creative standpoint
Now, we'll consider why custom embroidered hats are appealing from a creative branding standpoint.
Hats are a Good Conversation Starter
Hebei Etenal Product Page
Last week at work, I was talking to my coworker and I noticed that he was wearing a hat with a colorful logo. I asked him where he got his hat from, and he told me that it was from a local business. I had never heard of this particular business, but learned about it just because of the hat he was wearing.
Embroidered Hats Generate Awareness and Brand Recognition
An advertising campaign can be difficult to create, requires resources, and might not appeal to potential customers. Research on word-of-mouth advertising has shown that word-of-mouth advertising is the highest effective form of advertising because people are more willing to trust their friends or others they know over companies.
Think of it this way: if you are promoting your brand, would you rather have prospective customers see a billboard or hear about your business from somebody that they know wearing your hat?
Hats also capture and promote the lifestyle and personality of your brand. If you're an outdoor brand, you can create a hat that is good for camping, if you're a snowboarding brand, you can design a custom embroidered beanie.
Hats add value to your brand
When you venture into different mediums it solidifies the fact that you care about your brand and adds to customer perception. Customer perception is a non-negotiable trust signal for all businesses that too often falls by the wayside.
There are many available styles and options for custom embroidered hats
Different styles appeal to different customers. The following are a couple of examples of custom embroidered hats that we have created.
An example of a 5-panel hat that fits an outdoor loving demographic.
A dad hat that fits current trends and styles of both younger and older generations.
Another example of a dad hat, in a different style with unique decorations suited for different demographics.
A 5-panel rope hat with a custom logo.
Because there are plenty of options of available hats, you don't have to limit yourself to just one.
Custom Beanies
Custom embroidered beanies are another example of popular embroidery on clothes. Just like hats, beanies are comfortable, versatile, and fashionable. Like all custom embroidered clothing, you supply your concept logo, it's turned into a digitized file, and then embroidered on your brand merch.
Custom embroidered hats compared to other custom hats
When selecting a design for your branded hat you can choose from a number of different decoration options. Custom embroidered hats:
Add texture to the overall aesthetic of your hat
Provide variety for your customers to choose from when they are offered alongside other headwear
Are an eye-catching choice for displaying your brand's logo

Other custom embroidery like puff embroidery, for example.
