How to Order Bulk Custom Hats for Your Brand (Even If It’s Your First Time)

Thinking about launching custom hats for your brand?

It sounds easy—until you’re stuck choosing between overpriced middlemen, vague MOQ rules, and factories that leave you on “read.” If you’re a U.S.-based brand looking for private label hats or bulk custom caps, here’s everything you need to know.

To order custom hats in bulk, work with a direct manufacturer who offers full private label options, flexible MOQs, reliable communication, and transparent pricing. JoinTop supports U.S. brands with factories in China, Vietnam, and Bangladesh—producing snapbacks, truckers, dad hats, and more at scale.

Why U.S. Brands Are Turning to Bulk Hat Orders

More U.S. brands are choosing overseas hat manufacturers to lower costs, increase quality control, and customize freely. Working directly with a factory allows you to avoid markups, missed deadlines, and limited options.

Bulk ordering hats allows your brand to:

• Lower per-unit costs
• Offer full customization and private label branding
• Launch faster and stay in stock
• Increase margins with retail-quality products

Best-Selling Hat Styles in Bulk

Snapbacks, trucker hats, dad hats, and performance caps are among the top-selling styles for custom hat orders. Whether you’re launching a merch line or expanding a fashion collection, choosing the right style for your audience is critical.

What Is a Private Label Hat?

Private label means your brand identity is inside and outside the product. With JoinTop, your hats can include:

• Woven inside labels
• Custom size and care tags
• Branded interior taping
• Logo-printed sweatbands
• Hang tags and packaging
• Sticker labels

Private label hats give you full control over branding, packaging, and resale value.
