“This is one of the most common questions we receive. While we do not offer ‘no minimum’ custom hats in the traditional sense, we have a process designed to provide the best possible quality and value for serious brands.
Our standard Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ) is 50 pieces per style. Here’s why this is a major advantage for your brand:
- True Manufacturing Quality: An MOQ allows us to set up our professional knitting and embroidery machines specifically for your design. This results in a much higher-quality, retail-ready product compared to the simple print-on-demand services that offer single custom hats.
- Better Pricing: A bulk order significantly reduces the cost per unit, giving you a much better profit margin. Our factory-direct pricing for 144 pieces is often more cost-effective than ordering a small batch from a “no minimum” supplier.
- Full Customization: Our process allows for deep customization, including custom leather patches, 3D puff embroidery, and private woven labels—features that are typically unavailable for no minimum orders.
We Are Flexible!
We understand that every project is different. If your needs are close to our MOQ or if you are a new brand looking to get started, we encourage you to contact our team.
