Frequently Asked Questions
What is the production time for custom-designed hats?
The average production time for hat with patches is 4 weeks, while hats with embroidery is typically 2 weeks. Rush orders are available, just ask your customer service rep.
What is the minimum order quantity for your hat order?
The minimum order requirement for custom logo hats is 24, with outstanding tiered price breaks.
Can you screen print on hats?
Unfortunately, we don't offer screen printing on hats. We replaced that option with DTF print on hats. We find that DTF offers more design possibilities, lasts longer, and is faster to produce.
What is the difference between patches and embroidery for hats?
Patches are custom produced in a variety of materials like thread, leather, and PVC rubber. After the patch is produced, we sew the patch directly onto the hat. We do not heat transfer our patches. We find sewing to be a much more secure option.
Embroidery is your own logo stitched directly onto the hat with an embroidery machine. Offered in flat and 3D embroidery.
Can I order to sample first?
Yes, we do offer preproduction samples for hats. The cost does depend on the style of cap, decoration option, and quantity requested. Ask your sales rep for the cost for samples. We also offer free shipping within the United States for for patch samples, if you are wondering what the best patch option is with your logo.

Reviews
Third order for Monterey. Quality work and very easy to deal with. Can highly recommend.
We recently ordered custom fidget cubes and pencil bags with our Company logo, and we are beyond impressed with the results! The quality of the products exceeded our expectations, and the turnaround time was incredibly fast. A special thank you to Sarah MacArthur, who went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect from start to finish. We couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out and highly recommend this company for anyone looking for branded items!
I used Monterey Company to help make a custom order of 50 soft enamel pins and they made the process so seamless! Everyone I interacted with had great communication and were eager to assist me throughout the entire process. Josh specifically took great care in regularly sending me updates and sharing my excitement for the final product. I would trust these folks to handle any project, big or small.
Josh was amazing to work with! The medals look amazing! The quality is great and I will be ordering again next year!
Our company had keychains designed and manufactured by Monterery and we are exceedingly happy with the quality and consistency of the product. Communication throughout the entire process was just great. We're very happy. Thank you!
