The team cap this season
BaseballBaseball has been the busiest thing on our embroidery machines this spring — travel ball, Little League, high school programs. This is the cap they keep choosing.

Perforated GameChanger
Custom 3D puff embroidered team caps
GameChanger fabric with perforated side panels, so it survives a July doubleheader. Pro shape, flat bill. Your logo goes on the front in 3D puff — stitched over a foam layer so it stands off the cap and reads from the bleachers.

What we put it on
A short list of a long onePick the blank, pick the placement. Front panel, side, back strap, under-brim — stitch as many as you want on one cap.
How the job runs
4 stepsNo surprises. You see a proof before anything runs, and you approve it before we cut a single piece.
-
Step 1 / 4
Pick the blank
Tell us the look — structured or soft, mesh or solid, rope or plain — and we'll send back three or four blanks that fit the budget.
-
Step 2 / 4
Digitize for a cap
Cap embroidery runs on a curved surface from the center out. It needs its own stitch file, so we build one — 3D puff or flat, your call.
-
Step 3 / 4
Approve the sew-out
We stitch a real cap and photograph it front-on and at an angle so you can see how the puff sits. Thread numbers included.

Step 4 / 4
Run and ship
Shipped nationwide, or ready for pickup in Dayton. Reorders run straight off the file.

Send us artwork
Before we can proofCap embroidery is less forgiving than flat goods — the surface curves and the seam runs up the middle. Here's what makes it work.
File types
Vector preferred — AI, EPS, or outlined PDF. 300 dpi PNG on a transparent background is usually workable for a simple front mark.
Front-panel size
A front panel gives you roughly 4.5 inches wide by 2.25 inches tall on a structured cap. Wide horizontal logos suit caps; tall stacked ones fight the crown seam.
3D puff rules
Puff needs bold, closed shapes — block letters and thick strokes. Thin script, small text and fine detail should stay flat stitch. We'll mark which parts go which way.
Thread colors
Matched to Madeira numbers and confirmed on your proof. Tell us the cap color early — thread reads differently on dark crowns.
Questions we get
8 answersWhat's the difference between 3D puff and flat?
Flat stitch lies on the fabric. 3D puff is stitched over a foam layer so the letters stand up off the cap. Puff photographs better on bold block type; anything fine or scripted should stay flat.
Do you do full team orders?
Yes — it's most of what runs through the embroidery machines in spring. One logo, one setup, every cap the same, sorted and bagged so you hand out a bag per player.
These are stretch fit — how do we get the sizes right?
The GB998 is a 5-size stretch fit with no adjuster, so size matters more than it does on a snapback. Measure around the head just above the ears and use the chart above, or ask us for a try-on kit before you commit a whole roster.
Can each cap have a different player number?
Yes — $3 per cap for a number on the back. Send the roster in a spreadsheet with numbers and sizes and we proof it back to you before anything is stitched.
Can I do a different logo on the front and the side?
Yes. Front, both sides, back strap and under-brim can each carry a different mark. Each placement is digitized and priced separately.
Can you match my exact team color?
Close, not exact. Thread comes in fixed colors — we match to the nearest Madeira number and show you the match on the sew-out before we run a hundred of them.
Do you sell single caps?
Yes, at sample pricing. It's the right way to check a blank and a stitch-out before you commit to a full run.
Can I use my own caps?
Yes. Send spares, and note we can't warranty a blank we didn't source.
Ready when you are.
Send the artwork, the cap style and the quantity. You get a written quote and a sew-out proof before anything runs — no deposit to find out what it costs.
