Authentic Carhartt® Style with Your Branding

This custom embroidered Carhartt® hat combines recognizable workwear style with your organization’s identity. The sewn Carhartt® patch remains on the front of the cuff, preserving the product’s authentic appearance.

Your custom logo is embroidered on the back of the hat, creating a balanced co-branded design. This separate placement keeps both brands visible and provides a clean, professional look for uniforms, employee gifts, and promotional apparel.

Warm Double-Layer Rib-Knit Construction

The hat is made from 100% acrylic rib-knit fabric with a double-layer construction. The flexible knit conforms comfortably to the wearer’s head while providing practical coverage in cool and cold conditions.

Its classic cuffed beanie design pairs naturally with:

• Work jackets and uniforms

• Safety apparel

• Outdoor crew clothing

• Casual company apparel

• Winter event merchandise

• Employee gift packages

Custom Back Embroidery

Your company logo, department name, organization mark, or simplified design is embroidered on the back of the hat. Embroidery adds texture and dimension while providing a professional appearance appropriate for a premium branded product.

The final embroidery size depends on the artwork’s proportions, stitch requirements, and available decorating area. Exact placement and approximate dimensions will be shown on the digital proof before production.

Artwork Recommendations

Embroidery reproduces artwork with thread rather than ink, so clear, simplified designs generally produce the best results.

For embroidery-ready artwork:

• Use bold lettering and clearly defined shapes.

• Avoid extremely small text and thin lines.

• Remove gradients, transparency, shadows, and photographic effects.

• Use solid colors whenever possible.

• Choose thread colors that contrast with the selected hat color.

• Convert all fonts to outlines in vector files.

• Avoid unnecessary background shapes unless they are part of the intended logo.

• Provide the correct brand-color references when color consistency is important.

Fine details may need to be enlarged, simplified, or removed to produce a clean embroidered result.

Artwork and File Preparation

Production-ready vector artwork is preferred for embroidery digitization.

• Preferred formats: AI, EPS, or vector PDF

• Also accepted: PSD, high-resolution JPG, and PNG

• Maximum upload size: 75 MB

• Fonts: Convert all text to outlines

• Bleed: Not required for embroidery

• Resolution: Submit raster artwork at the highest available quality

• Color Information: Identify preferred thread colors with the artwork

Uploaded files are reviewed within 24 hours. If corrections or clarification are required, we will contact you before production.

Embroidery Digitization and Set-Up Charge

Artwork must be converted into a machine-readable embroidery file before stitching. This digitization process determines:

• Stitch type and direction

• Stitch density

• Underlay construction

• Thread sequence

• Color changes

• Final embroidery dimensions

A $35 set-up charge applies to the order. Additional charges may apply if separate artwork, additional embroidery versions, or substantial artwork revisions are requested.

Production and Turnaround

Standard production takes approximately 5–7 business days after artwork and digital proof approval. Shipping transit time is additional and is not included in the production estimate.

Turnaround may vary according to:

• Order quantity

• Artwork complexity

• Number of thread colors

• Requested proof revisions

• Product availability

• Seasonal production volume

Production does not begin until the final artwork and digital proof have been approved.

Digital Proof Approval

Before embroidery begins, a digital proof will be sent by email for approval. Carefully review:

• Logo design and proportions

• Spelling and wording

• Back embroidery placement

• Approximate embroidery dimensions

• Thread colors

• Hat color

• Quantity

• Other order details

Approving the digital proof confirms that the displayed design and specifications are ready for production.

Color and Product Notice

Colors displayed on computer monitors and mobile devices may differ from the finished product. Minor variations may occur in the knit fabric, Carhartt® patch, and embroidery thread because of screen settings, dye lots, material batches, and manufacturing tolerances.

The placement, appearance, and dimensions of the Carhartt® patch may vary slightly according to the available product version. Hat and thread colors should be reviewed on the digital proof before approval.

Care Instructions

Follow the care label attached to the garment. To help protect the knit material and custom embroidery:

• Use mild detergent.

• Avoid bleach and harsh cleaning chemicals.

• Do not iron directly over the embroidery or Carhartt® patch.

• Reshape the hat after washing.

• Allow it to air-dry when appropriate.

• Avoid excessive heat that may affect the knit or decoration.
