Custom Hats in Downtown Toronto

 

Thinking of ordering custom hats for your organization, team or company? At Artik we've been adding logos to all sorts of hats for over 30 years. Let's walk through some of the different styles and their advantages:

 

Baseball Caps with Custom Embroidery

Baseball hats protect against heat, glare, and sunburn; they keep your hair tidy, the rain out of your eyes, and your logo or design will be prominent. Custom embroidered baseball hats are one of our most popular products and in recent years they've only grown in popularity. Custom baseball caps aren't only popular amongst baseball teams! Embroidered hats are sold as merchandise by bands, given out at festivals and even worn as uniforms by staff retail shops. 

 

Custom Athletic Hats

Performance hats (also known as Athletic hats) are a great alternative for outdoor events and sports teams. Made with polyester and breathable mesh, these hats will resist water and sweat, keeping them dry and clean for years. We can add your logo to custom nike performance hats with embroidery, print or vinyl transfer. With your logo embroidered on custom athletic hats, your brand will make an impact at the next festival, marathon or giveaway. 

 

Custom Trucker Hats

There's a reason truckers love these hats! The mesh back allows for airflow and reduces sweat. The perfect hat for a trucker brand, a fun design or an outdoor event. Trucker hats are pretty awesome and we've got a wide selection of colours available.

 

Custom Bandanas

Bandanas have become a rising star in our hat game. We carry all colours of bandana, ready for screenprinting your design. Screen printed bandanas are well priced and perfect for outdoorsy types, dogs and athletes! We recommend making a design that integrates your logo into a nice pattern.

 

Custom Toques and Beanies

When Winter comes around, it comes down pretty hard! We'll embroider your logo on a variety of cozy hats, beanies, toques / touques and scarfs and gloves to match! These make high-value products or giveaways, and will be held onto by consumers.


Different Peak Options: Flatbill vs. Curved

 

Flatbill and Curved

The bill of the hat, also known as the brim is the part that protects the eyes from shade. In recent years we've sold more custom flat-bill hats than ever before, but some people still prefer the classic curved hat bill. This is an aesthetic decision to make based on your branding!

Different Back Options: Velcro vs. Snapback vs. Fitted

 

Velcro and Self Closure Backs
Velcro hats have flexible sizing and affordable pricing, making them one of our top selling hat styles.


Snapback
Snapback hats allow for flexibility and give the hat a high perceived value.


Fitted Back
Fitted hats are less flexible, but are loved when they fit right. Feel free to stop by our show room to try the different hat samples on!

Choosing the Right Custom Hats

When you're choosing hats for custom embroidery, it's important to consider your budget, what your hat will be used for and what style best suits your brand. Below, we'll highlight a few popular hat styles that our team recommends!

Choose your Backing

Start at the back - what kind of clasp are you looking for to close your cap?

We have velcro and buckle options which are great value options and have a lowkey sense of style to them.

We also sell snapback caps, perfect for adjusting hat size without losing the premium cap look.

And we carry fitted caps which are popular in the fashion and high-end sports merchandise world.

 

Choosing your Hat Style

Custom Embroidered Athletic Caps:

Our most popular embroidered hat style is the Athletic Cap. These hats are perfect for sports teams or sunny days. We've embroidered athletic caps for company uniforms too! These hats breath and reduce sweat, plus they don't absorb odors. We recommend custom embroidery for athletic caps and performance caps.

Custom Trucker Caps:

These embroidered trucker hats have netted backings allowing for total breathability on long rides. We find trucker caps are popular for youth-focused brands and outdoor events. We've embroidered designs for moving companies and shipping companies as well as fashion-focused brands popular on social media.
