Custom Fashion Hat — Merino Wool Yarn with Crochet
We supply fashion hat to brands, retailers, uniform and promotional programmes, made in Merino Wool Yarn with crochet for e-commerce and small-batch brands. On headwear the specification that decides whether it sells or comes back is size grading across the run — so that is agreed in writing before bulk, not discovered when the first carton is unpacked. Programmes start at 1000 pieces per style.
The failures here are predictable: packing that arrives mixed and unusable on the line, or colour drift between the approved sample and the bulk trim. We lock material, construction, measurement and tolerance on a pre-production sample, and prepare UKCA and REACH documentation so the container clears instead of missing the season it was bought for.

- Outdoor and winter programmes — built for the climate it is sold in
Packing, testing and delivery
Pieces are packed to the ratio you specify — by size, by colour or by style set — with barcodes applied where the channel needs them, and shape-protected where the profile cannot be crushed. Test reports for CPSIA lead and phthalate testing are prepared for the destination market. We ship to Felixstowe with invoice, packing list and certificate of origin, and keep the approved reference on file so reorders reproduce the same material, the same construction and the same size grading across the run.
