Custom Bucket Hat — Genuine Leather with Overlocked Edge
We supply bucket hat to brands, retailers, uniform and promotional programmes, made in Genuine Leather with overlocked edge for childrenswear and schoolwear. On headwear the specification that decides whether it sells or comes back is packability without a permanent crease — so that is agreed in writing before bulk, not discovered when the first carton is unpacked. Programmes start at 2000 pieces per style.
The failures here are predictable: colour drift between the approved sample and the bulk trim, 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.

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

- Uniform and corporate programmes — held spec for years of repeat orders
- 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 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 packability without a permanent crease.
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 do small runs across many designs?
Yes — many studio and boutique programmes run small quantities across a wide design set.
How long does sampling take?
A first sample takes 12 working days, and each revision about 3 days.
Do you ship to our forwarder?
Yes. We deliver to your nominated forwarder or quote landed cost under the agreed Incoterm.
