Can a custom race hat carry a second logo on the back panels?

Yes, a custom race hat takes a second logo at the back panels lower center. Embroidery there fills 2.25 in x 1 in, and heat transfer fills 3 in x 1 in, enough for a short sponsor line or a race date.

How large can embroidery be on the side and front lower panels of the Checkered Flag race hat?

Each side panel and each front lower panel of the Checkered Flag race hat takes embroidery up to 2.5 in x 1.5 in at its lower center. 3D embroidery fits the two front lower panels at that same size. Heat transfer on those front lower panels is smaller, at 1.5 in x 1.25 in.

Which faux suede patch shapes fit the front of a custom race hat?

A custom race hat takes faux suede patches at the front panels center in eight shapes: diamond, square, oval, rectangle, small rectangle and small, medium and large circles. The large circle is 2.29 in across, the diamond and square are each 1.47 in, and the oval runs 3.7 in x 1.4 in.

Should a sponsor logo on a custom race hat use flat or 3D embroidery?

Flat embroidery on the front of a custom race hat covers a slightly larger area than 3D embroidery. 3D embroidery builds the stitching up off the panel, so it suits a bold mark or a short word.

How do quantity breaks work for custom racing team hats with a 30 piece minimum?

Custom racing team hats in the Checkered Flag style need at least 30 pieces. Per-hat pricing steps down at 50, then again at 100 and at 300.

Where are custom race hats made, and what does a full carton weigh?

Custom race hats in this Merrimack Hat Co style come from the Philippines. One carton holds 80 hats, weighs 20 lb and measures 19 in by 15 in by 16 in.

What adds to the cost of a custom race hat beyond the base rate?

The base rate on a custom race hat covers one color in one location. Each added location, such as the back or a side panel, adds a charge. Extra colors and a second method, like 3D embroidery or a patch, are charged as well.

Description

The custom Merrimack Hat Co race hat pairs structured front panels with a brass buckle closure and tuck in strap, so one size fits most heads and the strap tucks away. It gives race fans, volunteer crews and brand promotions a clean front for your logo.

Put your logo on the front panels and the hat becomes the team uniform at a charity race day. Embroidered at the center, the design reads from across the infield, and the low profile crown sits close for a sleek, modern fit. Fundraising events work well with a hat people keep wearing, so your cause stays visible long after the finish line. Hand one out at company events as a welcome gift, or drop it into conference swag bags beside the lanyard. The Black/White colorway reads as checkered flag, which suits any race theme, and the curved brim keeps the look sporty. At a track day or a pit crew party, the structured front panels keep the badge area flat and easy to read.

Pair it with the mid profile trucker hat with recycled mesh back so a crew has two hat styles under one banner. Each takes your logo, whether embroidered or heat transfer printed, and each is easy to size for a whole group. The brass buckle adjusts for each wearer, so one order of 30 or more covers a whole crew, and more baseball hats round out the lineup.

Start with a free no obligation quote and a free digital proof of your logo on this hat, approve it, and your order is delivered on time to the date you confirm.
