I built up the lower pad with a mouse pad, the same size as the patch. Then I made a shield to go around the patch with old jean material, double thickness to protect the beanie from getting melted. I also cut down the pressure ant time just a bit. After you lift the hat press you can press the graphics with you hand. Great seller. I am selling for $15.
This is a great beanie hat. However; if you're planning on applying HTV to the patch area be very careful as to NOT heat the whole hat, as the acrylic material will stretch a lot and won't go back to it's original shape.
I recommend these - if you’re putting anything on the front, with heat - don’t use a heat press. I followed others’ advicd And used a small hand iron. These are great hats
Used it to test out done custom embroidery patches. Worked out perfectly. Not too stretchy, but thick enough, and the puffball is dope. I have big hair and it fits me snug.
Absolutely loved these. Sewed a small patch to the cuff and it was quick, easy and has held up well. They're incredibly soft, handle a wash really well and very warm. Have heard nothing but good things about them!
My customers are in love with this caps, i like the 5 panels style because i apply hear transfer, i love the clean finish without the line in the middle
we used these for a team of guys that work in a cold wharehouse. embroidered the company name on the folded lip of the beanie. they turned out great. didnt get any pics before we shipped then out . ill order these again for any other orders we need.
