Eight fabrics in regular use on our lines, plus the closures they are built with. If your spec calls for something not listed here, ask — we can usually source it.

Fabrics

The fabric ledger

The weight and the weave decide what a mark can look like. A heavy twill takes a high stitch count without puckering; a fine twill lets small lettering stay legible.

Premium Cotton Twill

Mid weight · Two-Tone 3D Embroidery A-Frame Cap

Smooth diagonal weave that holds a crisp 3D puff.

100% Cotton Twill (108*56)

Heavy weight · Custom 3D Embroidered 5 Panel Gorras

Dense, stable twill that takes a high stitch count without puckering.

Heavy Acid-Washed Cotton

Heavy weight · Vintage Acid Wash 6 Panel Dad Hat

Washed before cutting, so the colour has already settled.

Breathable Tech Cotton

Light weight · Outdoor Performance 5 Panel Cap

Cotton-nylon blend that moves moisture away from the head.

Heavy Duty Cotton Twill

Heavy weight · Structured Multi-Color Baseball Cap

Built for buckram front panels that hold a high crown.

Fine Cotton Twill

Light weight · Ladies Plain Blank Cotton Sports Cap

Finer yarn and lower weight for a cap that does not ride high.

Premium Cotton Canvas

Heavy weight · Personalised Two-Tone A-Frame Cap

More body than twill, so contrast panels read sharper.

Breathable Cotton Mix

Mid weight · Breathable Custom Embroidered 6 Panel

Mesh-lined crown with reinforced eyelets for repeated wear.

Sustainability & compliance

Certifications we hold — and those we can arrange

European buyers increasingly require documented proof that a fabric meets a chemical or environmental standard. We hold CE on finished goods. For orders where OEKO-TEX, GRS or REACH documentation is required by your destination market or brand policy, we can arrange independent testing on the specific fabric lot — ask us before sampling and we will confirm what is possible and what it adds to the lead time.

OEKO-TEX Standard 100ON REQUESTTests for harmful substances in fabric and thread. Can be arranged per fabric lot on request. Adds 2–3 weeks and a lab fee.
