Custom Bucket Hat — Polyester with Felt Blocking
We supply bucket hat to brands, retailers, uniform and promotional programmes, made in Polyester with felt blocking for uniform and corporate programmes. On headwear the specification that decides whether it sells or comes back is UPF rating where it is sold as sun protection — 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: 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 SNI or SIRIM documentation per destination so the container clears instead of missing the season it was bought for.

Where it sells
- Retail chains and department stores — repeatable spec, stable reorders

- Promotional and event channels — logo application and retail packing
- 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 azo dye-free declaration are prepared for the destination market. We ship to Jakarta or Port Klang 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 UPF rating where it is sold as sun protection.
