Dad Cap Fabric Types
- Cotton Twill - A sturdy, 100% natural fiber, cotton twill is one of the most popular dad hat materials.
- Brushed Cotton - An additional treatment done to the fabric to create a more textured look resulting in a hat that appears more heavyweight and "warmer". Brushed Cotton Dad Caps will typically also be a little bit softer than standard cotton twill.
- Pigment Dyed - A process in which the dyes of the garments add softness, and also offer a more washed, worn, vintage look. Pigment dyed caps are almost never solid and are washed out looking.
- Polyester - Offering both standard and recycled polyester options, these caps will have moisture wicking properties and tend to be prefered for athletics and sweating. Hats are a great way to not only keep the sun out of your face, but the sweat out of your eyes.

Ordering Custom Dad Haps
Our most popular method of printing or customization on dad ball caps is with custom embroidery. We love embroidery because it has that classic look. We will take your logo or design and digitize it, meaning we tell our embroidery machines exactly where to sew out your logo. You’ll approve your proof and 4 business days later we will sew your caps and ship you custom headwear directly to your door for free. Another reason you see custom embroiderd dad hats is that they have a seam down the front and so traditional screen printing with ink going over seams is not ideal.
