Custom head wear by Best Grips


Recommended Posts

This will be my goto thread for all hat pics for this year. In case you were unaware, earlier in 2013, to add a new facet of customization to my portfolio I purchased an industrial embroidery machine. The main purpose was to open up the options for custom head covers.

 

An unanticipated feature of the new embroidery machine was the ability to embroider hats. In the past, I would either use lids or the local embroidery shop. However, this usually set me back around $40 per hat. How ridiculous!

 

As part of the new and improved Best Grips Custom Studio, you can now purchase customized hats for as low as $15. These can be customized in anyway you please (puffy, aplique, etc.). All I need is a logo and a general idea to start from. You can choose from a multitude of hats (the selection is always growing) and we offer over 20 embroidery colors. If there is anything you want that you don't see, just drop me an email or call and e can discuss it further.

 

I wear a hat 3-4 days out of the week, so I am extremely particular when it comes to quality. The recent goto hat (Cool Max) is one of the best hats I've worked with. I'mm working on accumulating a few new colors and should have them ready next week.

 

I'm a big fan of snapbacks. They are very versatile (you can bend the bill flat bill haters, I do) and fit a wide variety of heads. You can find our growing list of offerings in the Custom Studio (here). You can also find Best Grips logo and already customized hats in the Arsenal (here).

Was recently chatting with my flexfit contact when they dropped this little bombshell on me. A limited run, camo colorway cotton snapback. I immediately fell in love. Expect to see a BG Camo Snapback on my head asap!

 

You can customize the Camo Snapback in the Custom Studio now for $25 (yes. 100% customized hat for less than what some jokers want you to pay for the exact same hat with their dumb logo on it!). Go to the product page here.

The Custom Headwear Oligarchs are now shaking in their boots! If you aren't following me on twitter (why not?), you missed this breaking news!

 

The BestGrips Custom Studio, my challenge to competitors to step up and offer more customization with fewer barriers, is getting serious about hats. We have offered FlexFit hats for over a year and recently added the economically and stylishly attractive Cool Comfort. Well, now we are adding the bold Pacific Headwear, country club Imperial, and the old faithful New Era to the mix.
 

Inventories are not prepared at the moment for a website debut. However, you can always pm, email or call toll free (866 687 2291) to discuss early orders.

While hats are certainly not the bulk of what I do, I personally love hats and really enjoy making protos. While I have a lot of hats, my opinion of the industry has left me wearing fewer and fewer OEM hats. However, blank hats are boring and dorky so I came up with the [url="http://bestgrips.com/products/dby-snapback"]DBY Snapback[/url]. The intimidation of designing a full custom hat is replaced with a simple option: you choose a letter, number or symbol and then pick the fill and trim colors.

The best thing? The price! $10. Yes, they are flatbill snapbacks, but the best thing is they fit a broad spectrum of sizes and the bill can be curved!

Got a hat question for you. What is the biggest size you can get your hands on? A new Era size 8 is to small for me, I fit closer to 8-1/4, 8-3/8. Please be the answer to my prayers

Ok, I'm sorry for bothering you and blowing up this thread. But sometimes, when my mind gets stuck on something....u know how it goes.

In any case, I was checking out your webpage again, and saw that you can also put on custom designs (not just the letter/symbol). Is that true? I didn't see the design option on the non-camo snapbacks. Would I just email my order to you?

Thanks!

Ok. I have pretty fast turnover rate, so I will make a note to get a few more colors on the next order. I rarely get black, because HEY! that is what the bad guys wear! haha.

I can put any design you want on any hat! I'm a little low on inventory, so there are fewer options atm, but on my list of things to do is grow the selection.


I also do some private label work. A friend has a really cool hat design that we have brought to life called [url="http://bestgrips.com/birdie-bogey-par"]Birdie.Bogey.Par[/url].

Here are two of the latest BBP hats. Both are stitched on the superb Pacific Headwear platform. This hat is the best on the market at the moment.
