Why Hats Are the Best Cannabis Brand Add-On
- Universal fit: Most hats fit most heads. One size to stock vs five sizes for tees.
- Highest margin per piece: $8 to $14 per hat. Strongest margin in the catalog by piece.
- Daily wear: Customers wear the hat more days than they wear the tee. More brand impressions per piece.
- Easy add-on at checkout: $25 add-on lands easier than a $50 hoodie add-on.

Logo Treatment for Cannabis Hat Embroidery
Hat embroidery has constraints the customer never sees but the print team does.
- Logo size: Roughly 2 to 3 inches wide. Tighter detail than tees.
- Thread color: Up to 8 colors per logo. Most cannabis brand hats run 1 to 3 colors.
- Avoid micro-detail: Tiny text under 8mm gets lost. Simplify before sending the file.
- Tonal embroidery option: Thread color matched to hat color for the subtle wellness-customer look.
