Start With the Brim Shape
Send a reference photo, sketch, or sample. We use it to define the front, side, and back brim widths, crown proportion, side profile, structure, and edge.
What Can You Customize?
A wide brim is defined by more than width. These choices determine how it looks, moves, and holds its shape.
Brim Width
Set the front, side, and back measurements instead of relying on one overall diameter.
Side Profile
Choose a flat, downward, upward, softly waved, or more controlled line.
Firmness
Choose a soft, flexible, semi-structured, or firm brim.
Crown Proportion
Balance crown height, shape, head opening, and band position with the brim.
Edge Finish
Choose a raw, stitched, bound, or another approved edge treatment.
Branding and Color
Add a hat band, logo, under-brim artwork, color, and contrast details.
Set the Brim Measurements
Front, side, and back widths can match or differ. Record each measurement from the crown connection to the edge so the sample follows the intended proportion.
- Brim map:
Mark the front, side, and back widths. - Crown:
Add the crown height, top shape, head opening, and band position. - Provide:
Send front, side, back, top, underside, and worn views with key measurements. - Sample check:
Review the complete proportion, balance, and fit from all main angles.
Choose How the Brim Should Move
Two brims with the same width can look completely different. The side profile and firmness decide whether the brim flows, holds a curve, or stays more fixed.
- Soft:
Allows more movement and visible variation. - Semi-structured:
Balances movement with a more controlled outline. - Firm:
Holds a clearer line and usually needs more packing support. - Edge:
Choose a finish that works with the target profile and movement.
Match the Material to the Brim
A material can look suitable in a swatch but behave differently at full brim size. Compare it in the finished shape for weight, texture, flexibility, and edge control.
- Material:
Compare raffia, paper straw, Toyo straw, wheat straw, palm, seagrass, or another available option. - Texture:
Choose a finer surface or a more visibly natural weave. - Structure:
Make sure the material supports the intended curve and movement. - Color:
Choose a natural tone or provide a dyed color direction.
Make the Brim Part of the Design
The larger surface can carry color, artwork, or edge detail when the material and curve support it.
Under-Brim Artwork
Place artwork where it appears as the brim moves. Confirm the print area, direction, scale, and edge clearance on the sample.
Under-Brim Options
Crown Branding
Keep the brim clean and place the logo on a band, patch, woven label, or metal plate.
Logo Options
Contrast Edge
A binding, stitched line, or another approved treatment can define the brim outline.
