Custom hats are traditionally a wholesale-account product, where a seller needs to open a supplier account and order a case minimum before printing or embroidering a single design. Print on demand removes that requirement entirely. Bear Grips Pro Shops runs seven hat products from established headwear brands (Richardson, Otto Cap, Yupoong, Valucap), printed or embroidered, with no minimum order and no wholesale account needed.
| Hat | Brand | Decoration | VIP base |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mesh Snapback Hat | Yupoong | Printed | $25.88 |
| Adjustable Cotton Lifestyle Hat | Yupoong | Printed | $25.88 |
| Cuffed Winter Hat | Yupoong | Embroidery | $25.86 |
| Youth Classic Baseball Hat | Valucap | Embroidery | $25.86 |
| Classic Rope Hat | Richardson | Printed | $29.86 |
| Premium 5-Panel Baseball Hat | Otto Cap | Printed | $29.86 |
| Classic Flat Bill Snapback Hat | Yupoong | Embroidery | $29.86 |
Printed hats work best for detailed, multi-color logos or graphics, since the print process is not limited by thread color count. Embroidered hats (Cuffed Winter Hat, Youth Classic Baseball Hat, Classic Flat Bill Snapback) suit simpler wordmarks or single-color logos and read as a slightly more premium, tactile finish. Both decoration types are included at the listed base price with no separate embroidery upcharge.
Bear Grips Pro Shops: Custom Apparel for Your Team. No Minimums. Free Shipping.Hats sit at a lower price point than a tee or hoodie, which makes them a common second or third item in a customer's cart rather than the first purchase. Pairing a hat with a hoodie or tee (as covered in our hoodie guide) rounds out a full merch drop for a gym, team, or small business without needing a separate wholesale relationship for headwear.
The Cuffed Winter Hat covers cold-weather demand at $25.86 VIP base, and the Youth Classic Baseball Hat at the same price point serves team or family orders that need a smaller size. Both use embroidery, which holds up well over a full winter season of wear.
A hat priced at $25.86 to $29.86 VIP base and sold at $35 to $40 retail clears roughly $9 to $14 in margin per sale, close to the platform's default $10 recommendation. Because hats have no minimum order, a seller can list all seven styles from day one without any added inventory risk, unlike a traditional wholesale hat order that would require committing to a case of each style in advance.
