Bucket Hats Are Having a Major Moment
Fashion editors have declared the bucket hat the accessory of the season—just check out Harper’s Bazaar’s summer-hat roundup highlighting the style’s blend of sun-protection and selfie-ready flair. When your logo is stitched front and centre, every beach photo or festival Reel becomes free brand real-estate.
Why Embroidery Beats Print
Thread never cracks or peels, and it screams “premium.” That matters, because the ASI Global Ad Impressions Study found 85 % of recipients remember the advertiser on branded headwear—far higher than many other promo items. In short: a quality embroidered hat keeps your name top-of-mind long after the event wristband comes off.

Design Tips That Make the Stitch Pop
-
Contrast Counts – White cotton + navy or black thread = instant legibility.
-
Stay Bold – Keep letter heights ≥ 8 mm; tiny serifs disappear in thread.
-
Add Accents – Metallic or neon stitches draw the eye without raising costs.
-
Mind the Curve – Place circular art slightly higher so it reads flat when worn.
