An embroidered cap can easily become the most visible and consistent piece of branding your team wears. It can act as an instant identifier at trade shows, job sites, and client meetings alike. In this blog, we’ll be discussing some key cap embroidery tips so that you can confidently select a style that elevates your brand identity.
Here are our expert recommendations before submitting a cap embroidery order:
- Keep the shades consistent with your brand. First, stick to your brand’s colors. Using your exact logo shades makes your gear look cohesive and professional. Additionally, you should try to limit the number of thread colors. A simpler design with strong contrast is often more legible and impactful from a distance than a complex, multi-colored one.
- Place your logo in the right spot. Logo placement directly affects visibility and recognition. Although centered placement is most common, you can experiment with side placements or back panels based on your brand. For corporate teams, centered placement offers the most professional look. For lifestyle brands, a side logo can create a modern, casual feel.
- Ensure the right size and fit. An uncomfortable cap is a cap that gets left in the car. Offer a structured cap for a classic, professional profile or an unstructured one for a more casual feel. If you can, provide a few size options.
- Pick the right style. Your hat style should reflect your brand’s personality. Structured caps fit professional settings, whereas unstructured or mesh-back caps are ideal for relaxed or outdoor industries.
