Custom Dad Hat — Organza with Reflective Piping
We supply dad hat to brands, retailers, uniform and promotional programmes, made in Organza with reflective piping for outerwear and jacket 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 300 pieces per style.
The failures here are predictable: minimum order quantities far above what a growing brand can absorb, or a supplier who disappears once the deposit is paid. We lock material, construction, measurement and tolerance on a pre-production sample, and prepare CPSIA and California Prop 65 compliance 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 salt spray test for metal finishes are prepared for the destination market. We ship to Los Angeles or New York 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.
