Hat work
Woven patch, PVC patch and leather patch hats for brands, businesses and teams. Woven patches give a crisp, detailed logo. Leather patches give a rugged, premium look. PVC patches are a 3D mold of your logo with a top-tier design aesthetic.

Small runs and big orders
A handful of hats for a new brand or event, or a full order for the whole crew. Patch hats work for both, and every hat in the order gets the same clean, even press, or we can stitch your patch on for a premium price.
