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.
I heat-pressed "flocked" htv onto these hats for several of our drum corps vets. They look GREAT and fit really well-- I was surprised at how nice they are and how well they fit, given the low price! I have ordered more, since more of our vets want them-- I couldn't be more pleased!
I bought 3 of these for my kids who are 8, 5, & 2 to use as art aprons and they are perfect! I can tie a knot on the neck strings so it fits my 2 year old better but she'll use it for years to come!
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 bought a new cap press, so I needed some caps to decorate. I decided to go with an inexpensive option. These 6-panel caps certainly feel different than structured caps, but don't mistake their unstructured nature for flimsiness. They have a relaxed and comfortable fit and are easy to work with on a cap heat press. I did not need to use any foam or other padding on the bottom platen. You should be able to use them on a flat heat press as well. I might test that out later on one of mine. You do have to keep the front seam in mind when using HTV on these caps. Thinner HTV and heat transfer paper might not be a good choice. Even puff HTV can show the stitching of that seam. I'm a bit of a perfectionist, so I really noticed it at first. But people who have received the finished product are not complaining. I'm waiting for an order of 5-panel caps from the same company so that I can really get this part of my business rolling.
This is a perfect bucket hat. It is a osfm, but it is still a good size. I find a lot of osfm bucket hats run small. This one did not and it did not draw up when washed. I make sure to only air dry it after washing. The color is very bright and after 3 washes has not faded.
These hats are perfect and the price can't be beat

These hats are perfect and the price can't be beat. The ordering is practically effortless and the service is fast. This is a company I'll be using again.
The material is like a dense cotton microfiber and holds vinyl well, which is good, but the size is just short of being large enough for a proper bandana. It will fit most people's heads, but not those with larger skulls or a lot of hair. So if you sell them as bandanas, as opposed to handkerchiefs, expect some complaints. Also, these aren't your typical soft cotton bandanas. The material is like a linen napkin.
These aprons have adjustable ties that let you better place apron on the person regardless of size. These were about 6" longer also which was great for heavier and taller people. Easily took the heat transfer vinyl.
