Embroidered hats are the highest-margin merch SKU a pet shop can sell. The base cost is low, the retail markup is high, and dog-mom customers pick them up at impulse-buy prices the same way they pick up a leash clip. Bear Grips Pro Shops offers six embroidered hat styles starting at $25.86 VIP base with no minimum and free US shipping.

Embroidery Layout That Reads Across the Shop
The standard layout for shop hats is a centered embroidered logo on the front panel, 2.5 to 3 inches wide. Optional: a small wordmark on the back closure.
- Two-color embroidery: shop logo in two thread colors, reads cleanly
- Tone-on-tone: thread color matches hat color for a subtle, premium look
- Patch on the front panel: woven or PVC patch instead of direct embroidery, more vintage feel
