Hats might be one of your essential dressing accessories. Besides, expressing your attitude and sense of fashion, hats are quite practical and convenient items at all. Hats can protect you from the influence of weather, no matter whether it’s a hot sun, chill breeze, or rainy day. Custom-printed hats or normal hats are the first choices when you want to cover your dirty or messy hair. Due to all these reasons, hats are popular and still have a great demand worldwide.

Due to the Covid-19 epidemic, people were stuck at home for about two years, resulting in a low demand for hats. However, from now on, people are free to go out, which means the demand for hats is rising and will have a huge increase in the future.

1.    Custom Baseball Caps

According to the data, baseball caps are the most popular type of hat and half of the people surveyed like to wear a baseball cap as part of their everyday clothing.

In the beginning, baseball caps were designed for baseball players and were part of the traditional baseball uniform. As time went by, the popularity of baseball caps has continuously increased and has become an essential item for everyone’s daily wear. The influence of the baseball cap goes beyond being a simple item and baseball caps have a great influence in the fashion industry.

The styles of baseball caps have changed tremendously from time to time in different shapes and morphs. However, from the structure, most are similar in structures, including panels (5 or 6 panels), brims, the top button, and eyelets.

2.    Custom Trucker Caps

Trucker caps are very similar to baseball caps. In the beginning, trucker caps were a promotional gift from agricultural supply companies to farmers and truck drivers. That’s why the reason trucker caps were popular among workers in the United States countryside.

Before as a fashionable accessory, trucker caps were designed for practicality and convenience. The symbol feature was the back mesh design to improve the ventilation and keep the head cool, providing comfort for workers when they worked outdoors under the sun. That’s why trucker caps are the favorite caps among blue workers and farmers.

Trucker caps were popular in the ’00s and became famous at that time. Companies like Von Dutch, have success in their trucker caps. Recently, with the trend in 2000, or what we call Y2K style, trucker caps have become popular again.

The structure of trucker caps is firm and stable. What’s more, you can custom full DIY printing on the front panel of trucker caps, even including the mesh panels, which can make them distinctive and impressive, leading to your success.

3.    Custom Bucket Hats

There seems to be no need to introduce the bucket hat because we all know it. The casual and effortless features of bucket hats make them essential hats in streetwear. Such a simple bucket hat has a special power to enhance your style and outfit distinctively. What’s more, such a bucket hat is also a perfect idea to cover your unideal hair.

4.    Embroidered Custom Hats

Embroidery is a popular way to decorate hats. Compared to regular printing, embroidery is more long-lasting and durable, and the quality looks premium. However, there are some cons of embroidery.

• Higher cost than printing
• Only suitable for simple handicraft
• Embroidery machines cannot handle complex and detailed designs

5.    Custom Beanies

The last one is custom beanies. Beanies are the must-have headwear in winter because beanies can keep your head warm and fashionable at the same time. However, beanies are suitable for winter and can be worn all year round from spring, summer, and fall to winter. What’s more, you can customize your personalized pattern or logo to express your sense of fashion. No matter whether you want to promote your brand or creative idea, even fashion in the cold winter, then custom beanies are a very nice choice for all.

In the End
