Custom Ethnic Hat — Melton Wool with Embroidered Patch
We supply ethnic hat to brands, retailers, uniform and promotional programmes, made in Melton Wool with embroidered patch for denim and workwear programmes. On headwear the specification that decides whether it sells or comes back is consistency of hand-finished detail between units — 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: unclear responsibility when a defect shows up after washing, or a supplier who disappears once the deposit is paid. We lock material, construction, measurement and tolerance on a pre-production sample, and prepare REACH and GPSR documentation so the container clears instead of missing the season it was bought for.

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 GRS recycled content claim are prepared for the destination market. We ship to Rotterdam or 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 consistency of hand-finished detail between units.
FAQ
How do you control colour on reorders?
The approved reference and the bulk standard are retained, and every reorder is checked against them before shipment.
Can you match a reference sample?
Yes. Send the trim and we match material, finish and shade, then confirm on a pre-production sample before bulk.
What packing options are available?
Bulk packed, carded, or packed to your own size and design ratio with barcodes applied.
What is the minimum order?
Programmes start at 1000 pieces per style per finish. Mixed sizes are fine within one style.
