Custom Dad Hats With Your Name or Monogram

Custom Dad Hats With Your Name or Monogram — common questions

What is a dad hat?

A dad hat is a baseball-style cap with a soft, unstructured crown and a relaxed fit, so the front folds gently instead of standing upright. It reads as casual and slightly worn-in, and washed, brushed and distressed finishes suit the style.

Should I choose a dad hat or a structured cap for a logo?

Choose a dad hat when you want the logo on a soft, relaxed front, and a structured cap when it should stay flat and upright. A small or simple mark looks natural on a dad hat, while a wide logo reads more cleanly on a stiff front.

Which dad hats look worn-in from the start?

The distressed dad hats are finished to look broken-in, and the bio-washed chino twill dad hat has a soft, pre-worn texture. Peached cotton twill is sanded smooth, so those dad hats feel soft from the first wear.

Can a monogram be embroidered on a dad hat?

Yes. Initials stitched on the front suit the embroidered dad hats, including the classic cotton dad hat and the embroidered distressed twill dad hat. Keep the letters bold rather than hairline thin so the thread can render them cleanly.

Is a dad hat only meant as a gift for a father?

No. The name describes the soft, low-crowned shape, and the cap suits anyone. It does make a ready Father's Day present when a name, a nickname or a year goes on the front.

What is the difference between peached and brushed twill dad hats?

Peached cotton twill has a smooth, matte, soft surface, while heavy brushed twill has a raised face that feels thicker in the hand. Both keep the soft dad-hat crown, so choose by the texture you prefer.
