Designing for an Unstructured Cap
With no buckram behind the front, the panel flexes, so we keep dad hat logos around 1.75–2″ tall and avoid 3D puff, which collapses without structure. Small text, script and simple marks look best. Leather patches work well here too. Want the same relaxed fit in a trucker? Try the 6606 or the rope Richardson 258.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a dad hat?
An unstructured, low-profile six-panel cap, usually cotton twill with a curved bill and an adjustable strap. The YP Classics 6245CM is the most common blank.
Can you do 3D puff on a dad hat?
We do not recommend it. Without a structured front the foam has nothing to push against. Flat embroidery or a patch looks better.
How big should a dad hat logo be?
About 1.75 to 2 inches tall and up to roughly 4 inches wide.
Is there a minimum order?
No minimum on embroidery or patches. Pricing improves at 12, 48 and 144 pieces.
How long does a custom hat order take?
Standard production is 10–14 business days from your approved proof, plus shipping. Rush is available depending on the schedule.
Do you ship outside Nevada?
Yes. We decorate in Yerington, Nevada and ship custom caps anywhere in the US.
