A cap is the smallest canvas we stitch and the one people see first. The front panel takes a name, a set of initials, a small pet portrait or a short line of text; the side panel suits a date or a tiny icon; the back strap area suits a single word. Because the embroidery sits on a curved, structured panel, we keep hat designs compact and use a dense satin stitch so letters stay crisp at cap size.
\nHow to choose: a structured baseball cap holds its shape and shows a centred design clearly; a soft dad cap sits lower and looks lived-in, best for small left-of-centre text; a snapback has a flat brim and a taller front, which suits bolder lettering. Caps are one size with an adjustable strap or snap closure, so sizing is not an issue, and a cap is the easiest matching piece to add to a sweatshirt or hoodie order for a couple or a family.
\nTwo-tone caps are common in this category, so the thread colour matters twice: pick one that contrasts with the front panel rather than the brim. Choose the text, font, thread and placement on the product page and we email a stitch proof before we start. Caps are stitched within 1-3 business days after you approve the proof and ship free with tracking to the US, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. Our 60-day returns apply to caps too, including personalised ones; the Returns and Exchanges Policy explains the few steps, and the FAQs cover how to clean an embroidered cap.
