Heavyweight Warmth for Cold-Weather Wear
The Night Watch Heavyweight Hat is designed for businesses and organizations that need practical winter apparel without sacrificing brand presentation. Its chunky acrylic rib knit delivers a substantial feel and helps protect the wearer during chilly workdays, outdoor activities, and seasonal events.
Unlike lightweight promotional beanies, this heavyweight construction provides a structured appearance that pairs well with work uniforms, branded outerwear, and casual apparel. The stretchable knit offers a flexible fit, while the cuffed design provides additional coverage around the ears.
Professional Custom Embroidery
Your logo is embroidered on the front cuff for a clean, dimensional finish. Embroidery adds texture and durability while helping the design remain visible against the hat’s chunky rib-knit surface.
The maximum embroidery area is 4" W × 2" H, providing sufficient space for many business logos, organization names, team emblems, and simple promotional messages. Designs may include up to four embroidery thread colors.
For the clearest result, use bold artwork with readable lettering and distinct shapes. Extremely small text, gradients, shadows, photographs, and very fine details may require simplification before embroidery.
Available Hat Colors
Choose a color that coordinates with your brand, uniform, or campaign:
-
Navy
-
Black
-
Graphite
-
Olive Green
Actual hat and thread colors may vary slightly from their appearance on computer and mobile screens. Minor color differences may also occur between manufacturing or dye lots.
