Custom Dad Hat — Sequin Fabric with Contrast Piping
We supply dad hat to brands, retailers, uniform and promotional programmes, made in Sequin Fabric with contrast piping for uniform and corporate programmes. On headwear the specification that decides whether it sells or comes back is soft crown collapse, which is the point of the style but must be controlled — so that is agreed in writing before bulk, not discovered when the first carton is unpacked. Programmes start at 500 pieces per style.
The failures here are predictable: minimum order quantities far above what a growing brand can absorb, or packing that arrives mixed and unusable on the line. 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.

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 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 soft crown collapse.
