Custom Embroidery Baseball Cap

Custom Embroidery Baseball Cap

Custom Embroidery Baseball Caps have seen a surge in popularity thanks to the help of Hollywood. Over the past several years, new leading characters have come out in block buster movies and are wearing a signature baseball cap. This trend has grossed gender line popularity with men and women and has created an explosion of resurgence in the fashion world of caps.

We’ve seen more new cap designs and more revival of retro caps in the last 3 years, than over the last 30. Circa 2002, you could find a few varieties of cap, but in 2021 and beyond, you are now starting to see a huge range of style offerings.

What’s been interesting with custom embroidery baseball caps is to see how popular some of the old styles from the 1970’s have become. Trucker hats, foam hats and what was once considered a “cheap” cap, are all highly sought after items.

One of the most popular requests with trucker hats has been to implement a faux patch on the front. If you’ve ever seen the classic hat with the rounded edge rectangular patch on the front, it is this style that has really been popular.

Since small patch runs of under 100 patches are often too much for most clients. Faux patch sewing has become more popular. Faux patch sewing is when we make an embroidery design look like a patch. We base down a fill pattern or mash down stitch, sew the design on top of that, and then put a satin stitch around the edge, to emulate the classic merrowed edge of a patch.

Screen Printing in New Jersey

Screen Printing in New Jersey

AMBRO Manufacturing offers Screen Printing in New Jersey. With 30+ years in business and in our 3rd family generation of operation, we know screen printing. In addition to screen printing, we offer embroidery and knitting.

Choosing a good screen printer is not an easy task. Screen printers typically fall into one of three categories. Category one includes what I like to call “Mega Screen Printers”, these printers are massive. They print hundreds of thousands of items each month. If you need a few hundred thousand pieces, then they are a great choice. But if you need only a few dozen, hundred or thousand, then it’s unlikely that any of these mega printers will return your calls.

The next category is what I call “The Garage Shop”. These printers often work out of their basement, garage or small retail space. While you can find many good quality printers in this category, it’s truly a hit or miss. Often, the level of service that you will get from one of these printers depends highly on what they have in their shop the week that you need something. As a one man or one woman shop, the proprietor is often the Jack or Jill of all trades. This means that the person that answers the phone, does the paperwork, prints the products, QC check the products and delivers them, is the same person. While that can be awesome, it also means that they have limited capacity. Risks with working with this type of organization are high.

The final and most rare category is the mid-level provider. Mid-level providers are big enough to produce hundreds or thousands but not so big that they won’t take your order for 12 pieces. These mid-level companies have the resources that you need to get your job completed in a quality manner and in a short period of time.
