Guide to Custom Hat Parts & Options

I cannot tell you how many times we have been asked the difference between structured versus unstructured or low profile versus medium profile. To help answer some of these questions, we have assembled a visual guide to the main parts of a customized hat. Photos include 3D puff embroidery versus regular embroidery, mesh fabric options, cotton twill vs brushed cotton and everything else associated with caps.
