Video transcript

  1. 0:00Choosing a cap blank by brand name alone backfires.
  2. 0:05Start with sizing. Fitted caps mean collecting head sizes and accepting leftovers; stretch-fit ranges compromise. For unknown wearers, one adjustable size is practical.
  3. 0:17Match crown to logo. High structured fronts suit stacked marks, mid curved fronts suit wide wordmarks, low soft crowns, simple marks. Lower crowns leave less height.
  4. 0:29Map the open zones. Mesh backs allow front panels only; solid panels add sides and back. A branded blank reserves one side, and snapbacks leave a narrow arch.
  5. 0:42A branded blank places your logo beside the maker's; check rights before stitching a team mark. A private-label cap carries your own labels but needs sampling time. Approve a sew-out on the exact blank.
  6. 0:55Start with the wearers, then send your logo and target use.
