Dad hats typically feature an unstructured, low-profile crown, curved visor, and adjustable closure—often in garment-washed cotton for a relaxed, lived-in look.

Dad Hats — Frequently Asked Questions
Flat embroidery is a classic choice for clean left-chest-style logos; 3D/puff embroidery adds dimension. Woven, leather-look, PVC, or sublimated patches provide premium texture and color depth.
Front center is most popular; offset front, side panel, and back arch placements are also common. Patch shapes and sizes can be tailored to crown profile and artwork.
Most are adjustable one-size with strapback (buckle, slide, or hook-and-loop) closures; fitted options exist in select lines. Samples help confirm crown depth and curve.
Many dad hat programs complete in ~2–4 weeks after final art approval; embroidery/patch timelines may vary. Minimums depend on hat style and decoration—ask for current options by cap.
