Arborwear sources and embellishes hats from trusted brands, customized exactly how your crew prefers. From the shape of the brim to the color of the crown, we create a hat ultra-unique to your brand standards. 

### Let’s start building the best hat for your Crewniform™.

### **Shape**

Start by choosing the shape of your hat. Select between a structured or unstructured style.

### **Crown**

How high will your hat sit on top of the head? We build caps with low, mid, and high crowns for a variety of preferences.

### **Visor**

Next, decide which visor style will work best for the crew. Protect their eyes from the sun with either a flat or pre-curved visor.

### **Back**

Build a hat with a solid - or mesh - back. Both backing styles get the job done, but the look and feel is up to you.

### **Closure**

Fasten your hat with a snapback, hook & loop, slide buckle, or flexfit closure. All styles are designed for a variety of head sizes and comfort preferences.

### **Color**

The front, back and visor colors can be all the same, or all different. Solid is a classic look, while two tones are popular, especially for mesh-back hats.

### **Decoration**

Embroidery or patches are common ways to add your logo and information. One location or two? Big or small? Whichever you choose, adding an [on-brand embellishment](https://blog.arborwear.com/blog/building-a-hat-to-remember)really helps your crew stand out.
