Peak performance for your team with our new baseball cap

We wanted to give Ben our tennis coach a thank you present for all his hard work during the year.  Enter the idea of a personalised budget 5 panel cap.  Our logo, being a tennis club, has a yellow ball speeding through the air, set against the green background of a tennis court.   The logo speaks aspiration. And aspiration is such a positive force with so many meanings.  It cements the identity of the club and bear in mind, Ben's gratitude and the wider reach the club will get by him wearing the cap on court.  He coaches many sets of different abilities and age groups and a cap is such an eye catching addition to any wardrobe.  And off court too in the wider community.  Be it in the supermarket or out and about socially, Ben's cap will get noticed.   And of course once he started wearing it, we all thought, let's add to our custom club teamwear (in our case hoodies and tshirts and lightweight jackets) by adding in personalised caps to the mix.  We chose green but It comes in many different colours, and can fit different head sizes having a velcro fastening at the back. Also there's a choice between having an embroidered or printed logo. The price of a personalised 5 panel budget cap means it's a somewhat small investment for large groups.  I am thinking clubs or companies.  Like us, you may well have already invested in corporate or club custom clothing.  The cap is a natural addition.Plus if you are exposed to the elements, the custom cap alongside sunscreen can help shield your face particularly during the summer from bright sunlight. Protection from sunlight is one of the reasons why the baseball cap came into being.  Its definition is 'a type of soft hat with a rounded crown and a stiff bill projecting in front."  It was originally used from 1980's by baseball players in the US as a promotional tool and fashion accessory..   Such is the popularity of this cap that it has grown from a component of baseball uniforms to evolving as a global cultural icon.  It's now the most popular hat type worldwide and has morphed into many different styles depending on the material, shape, panel count and back fastening.  The snapback, Flexfit, trucker and fitted are all examples of baseball caps with varying characteristics. Take the snapback, it's renowned for its adjustable strap at the back, offering a customisable fit.  Originating from hip-hop and urban fashion, snapbacks gained popularity for their flat brim and embroidered logos, becoming a symbol of street style.  Like the snapback hat, a trucker cap also has an adjustable plastic snap closure, The trucker cap first became popular in the 1970s when they were printed with agricultural supply company logos. They were originally given out to farmers and truck drivers as popular promotional items. This hat style has a flat brim like a snapback hat, but the hat is split into two sections. The front part is made of foam or cotton twill, so that it’s taller than a regular baseball cap — giving a lot more head room for a custom design. The back, however, is made of plastic mesh, which makes a trucker cap much more breathable than other hat styles.  The Flexfit is designed for maximum comfort. The patented polyurethane spandex is woven into the sweatband and throughout the entire hat crown.This means that the cap band is flexible enough to adjust to the wearer’s head.  Also the crown  is particularly popular for embroidered logo being made of the same Flexfit material.   So in a nutshell, caps are cool and even more so as they protect the wearer from the sun's harmful rays.  Your logo will get noticed on a cap being positioned prominently on the head.  So why not make custom caps part of your wardrobe be it to identify yourself with a company or as an expression of your own personal style…..or both !
