This is not just your average screen printing style on logo hats. Custom embroidery stitches your design directly onto the cap.

Standard Embroidery

Often called flat embroidery, this process comes standard with each order. We have thousands of thread colors to choose from to match your branding.

Puff 3D Embroidery

A layer of foam is added between the hat and the stitch, creating a pronounced raised and rounded look that mimics a three-dimensional effect.

Everything about our T-shirt order from the Monterey Company was OUTSTANDING. If your order happens to be small (as ours was), don't worry; they will treat you like you're one of their top customers. The order process was smooth and user-friendly from beginning to end; the communication was frequent and clear; and the quality of the final product was excellent (and captured more detail than we had imagined). Additionally, the T-shirt material was soft and durable - very top notch! And most of all, their suggestions for improving on our original artwork were perfect and added nice touches to our original ideas. Not to mention their pricing options - VERY reasonable! James and the rest of the team were a pleasure to work with. We will gladly use them again in the future!

We had what is probably considered a smaller order since we are not a company, but we had t-shirts made for an event. The entire process from beginning to end was thorough, professional, and there was great attention to detail so we would get EXACTLY what we wanted at a really excellent price. The quality of the tshirts was excellent. I would not hesitate to use Monterey Company again. Everyone we interacted with was wonderful. Thank you!

I just wanted to take a moment to share a few things about a company that I have been working with for roughly 6 years. My main contact is Josh Knowles and he is AMAZING. Monterey is professional, has quality products and is very easy to work with. Their customer service is 2nd to none and I am sure we will continue to have them produce our patches for many years to come!

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I send you the blank hats for embroidery?

Yes. You can send your hat blanks to us, and we can add custom embroidery to the caps. First, contact our sales team, and we can outline the process.
