Promotional hats branded with your logo
Promotional hats put your logo on headwear that gets worn outdoors, at work sites and sports grounds. Businesses order caps and custom logo hats in bulk for staff uniforms and outdoor crews, schools and sports clubs, event organisers and brands running giveaways.
The range runs from bucket, wide brim and straw hats to trucker caps and snapbacks. Every order comes with a free digital mockup, so you see exactly how your company logo sits on the hat before anything is decorated. Browse the complete range of promotional headwear below and request a quote once you find the style that fits.
Promotional cap and hat styles in the range
The right hat depends on where it's worn. For all-round sun cover, bucket hats come in cotton twill, terry towelling, corduroy and camo, with reversible styles if you want two looks in one hat. Outdoor workers on exposed sites call for wide brim and legionnaire hats, with a neck flap on legionnaire styles and chin straps on selected lines. Straw hats such as Panama, fedora and beach styles suit summer events and hospitality, with a front patch for your logo. Trucker, snapback and baseball caps are the pick for warm days and outdoor events, with mesh backs for ventilation and a flat peak look that suits event merchandise. Everything else in the cap range sits under our classic caps, for teams and brands after a straightforward branded cap. A well-made hat gets worn long after the event, so it's worth matching the fabric to how hard-wearing the hat needs to be.
Most styles are one size with adjustable closures such as velcro, a snapback or a toggle. Some lines come in set sizes (S/M and L/XL).
Custom printed hats and logo branding options
The right decoration method depends on the fabric, the cap style and your artwork.
- Embroidery: suits cotton, canvas and twill hats and custom caps, giving a stitched, raised logo
- Full colour sublimation: all-over designs on polyester bucket hats, trucker caps and fishing styles
- Full colour print (heat transfer): fine detail and full colour designs on selected custom caps and bucket hats
- Patches: suede, full colour vinyl and full colour patches on many caps and hats, including straw and terry towelling styles, plus built-in leather-look PU or polyester patches on selected lines
- Screen printing: available on selected lines – ask us to confirm for the style you want
We'll confirm the decoration options for the style you choose. Upload your logo with your order and your mockup shows it on the hat before production. These methods apply across the promotional headwear range, so ask us which branding method suits the style you've picked.
Choosing promotional hats for sun, staff and events
Pick promotional headwear by where it'll be worn and who's wearing it.
- Outdoor teams, schools and outdoor events: sun hats such as bucket hats, wide brim and legionnaire hats – selected lines carry a UPF50 rating and meet the AS/NZS sun protection standard, so ask us to confirm the rating on the style you want
- Staff uniforms and hospitality: embroidered caps and hats give one consistent logo across the team, with most styles offered in several colours
- Sports clubs and fundraising merchandise: bucket hats, trucker caps and baseball caps in club colours, with kids sizes on selected lines

Promotional hats FAQs
Minimum order quantities start from as little as 5 units, though the exact number varies by hat style. Need fewer than that? Ask the team – we can sometimes accommodate smaller runs too. Most styles sit between 10 and 100 units, with a handful of lines running up to 250. Tell us the style and quantity you need and we'll confirm the minimum before you order.
All hats and caps are made to order. Standard production runs 5 to 15 working days, with selected lines available faster through our Express Range. Delivery sits on top of that and depends on your location. Include your event date when you order and we'll confirm what's achievable.
Wide brim and legionnaire hats cover the most skin. Pick a neck flap or chin strap for windy, exposed sites, and we'll confirm the UPF50 and AS/NZS rating for the style you're after.
Yes. Ask for a sample when you request your quote, so you can check the fit and fabric first.
Yes. Our kids' range spans bucket hats plus wide brim, legionnaire and snapback styles. Tell us you're after kids sizing and we'll point you to the right styles.
The file you need depends on the decoration method. Screen printing, full colour print (heat transfer) and sublimation give the cleanest result from vector artwork in EPS, AI, SVG or PDF. Embroidery can work from a high resolution JPG or PNG, as our team sets the design up for stitching. If you only have a low resolution logo, send it through anyway and our design team will check it and tell you whether it needs redrawing before production.
