CHOOSE THE RIGHT HAT STYLE: Let’s take a look at some of the most popular hats and why they might be the right hat for you.
When we’re talking about hats, what most people think of (in the summer, at least) is the good-old-fashioned baseball cap. Whether it’s something super traditional like this New Era option or something with a little more flair like this Nike Golf cap, there’s something for everyone in the world of the baseball hat. This is a beloved custom hat option for anyone and these are perfect for custom embroidered hats for any occasion, but there’s also plenty of ‘genres’ of baseball hat, so to speak. UGP has you covered there, too!
A snapback cap is a great option and one that has seen plenty of recent popularity. With a flat-brim, this is one of the most stylish hat varieties. Our product of the month is this Richardson trucker snapback, which is a great blend of two of our favorite baseball cap styles. These are great for comfort and style and make for a perfect custom hat option as a gift or giveaway.
The trucker hat generally has the same style of bill as a baseball cap, but features a mesh backing. Of course, as you saw with that Richardson option, there can also be exceptions to the flat brim with a trucker hat, and whether it’s a snapback or flat brim, they are just as stylish. Their history stems from actually being given away as a promotional item, but that stigma of the hat is over. They are fashionable and a great custom hat selection for you and your next event or as a gift.
The visor is one of the perfect options for a great summer hat selection. With no crown, the visor is a brim generally attached with a loop around the head that can be adjusted to fit anyone! We love this Nike Dri Fit visor with a hook and loop closure on the back that allows a perfect fit. This is generally associated with summer because of its perfect utilization for outdoor activities like tennis and golf.
Another great summer custom embroidered hat option is the bucket hat. Offering full protection all around the head, this was initially used by fishermen before taking on a much larger role in regards to hat-wearers. This is a super fun option that can be used as a giveaway for a larger event, or just for your own purposes to beat the summer heat and stay cool in some full head shade!
Last but not least, we have the perfect winter custom embroidered hat selection. Now, I know that you may not be thinking about getting a beanie in the summer, but these are always worth keeping in mind. The perfect beanie is soft, comfy, and can be worn inside or outside as a way to keep warm, or as a fashion statement. This Carhartt option, for example, is one of the most popular and fashionable hats we have available. For something a little more fun in design and cost-effective, Sport-Tek’s striped beanie is a great option there. Beanies are a great hat option and definitely worth your time!
