Embroidered baseball caps, beanies and hats: what they cost and which to choose
A cap, beanie or hat with your logo costs from €1.32 per unit, including branding. Embroidered baseball caps do a different job from pieces handed out at a sunny event, items given as gifts or products your team wears day to day. Here you can see today’s prices, the most common uses with real models, and the key points on branding, fit and season to check before you order.
How much does a personalised cap, beanie or hat cost?
Price per unit with your logo in one colour in the standard position, excluding VAT and delivery. The unit price drops as quantities rise because the embroidery, patch or transfer setup is spread across more units.

For summer giveaways and outdoor events
When you are handing out lots of items at a race, outdoor open day or festival, they need to provide sun protection and show the logo clearly on the front. In the Essential range, lightweight cotton or polyester caps and sun hats work well, with embroidery or transfer on the front panel.
A common mistake is choosing for the order date rather than the date they will be handed out. For summer, a cap, visor or sun hat is the better choice; for colder weather, switch to beanies. And do not fill the whole front: a more restrained logo makes people more likely to wear it outside work.

6-Panel Cap Organic Cotton Twill 280 g/m² From €1.69 with your logo For a campaign with recycled fabric
If the campaign needs to say more about the material, it is worth moving up a level and looking at caps in recycled cotton or other recycled fabrics. In the Plus range you will find six-panel models and cleaner finishes, suitable for front embroidery, a patch or a small detail on the side or fastening, depending on the product page.
For logos with lots of detail or gradients, do not force very fine embroidery: a printed patch will handle it better. And if the cap is for everyday wear, keep the design small; on headwear, that discreet size is what gets the item worn out and about instead of left in a drawer.

Acrylic beanie with custom pattern, 2*1 ribbed knit cuffs and pompom From €5.30 with your logo For gifts and for your team
When the cap is part of a gift or team kit that will be worn often, fabric, structure and finish matter more. The Premium range brings together six-panel models and sports or recycled cotton options that look better with embroidery, 3D embroidery or an engraved leather patch.
If it is going into a pack, pair it with a custom T-shirt in summer or a fleece in colder months. Do not look for sizes where you do not need them: caps usually have an adjustable fastening, and the product page shows whether the model offers extra logo positions without overcrowding the front.

How each type of accessory is branded
| Item or fabric | Technique | How the logo looks |
|---|---|---|
| Cotton or polyester caps | Embroidery | Hard-wearing in use, sun and washing; gives a clean result on the front |
| Caps with a simple logo | 3D embroidery | The logo stands proud and works best with thicker lines and simple shapes |
| Caps and knitted beanies | Printed patch or engraved leather patch | A fashion-brand finish, useful when embroidery will not reproduce so much detail well |
| Technical fabrics and straw hat bands | Digital transfer or screen transfer | Good colour and detail in areas where embroidery does not give a clean finish |
| Bandanas | Screen printing or transfer | Allows large, visible designs across the whole item |
