CAPS
JUNE 2016 • PPB • 17
UNSTRUCTURED These caps have nothing behind the two front panels to stiffen them and
the fabric is often washed before assembly to soften it. They have a lower profile on the wearer’s
head and tend to have a more casual feel. You can fold them up and put them in a pocket. “It’s
really just personal preference, but unstructured caps are growing in popularity,” Mosley adds.
Another important part of the cap
is the bill. You can choose a flat bill
or a curved bill. Again, it’s all about
personal preference, so it’s critical to
know your audience. Mosley says
that many people planning events
think they should order the hat that
they want, but that’s a mistake. “We
remind distributors that the goal of
picking a cap that the recipient will
like is to have the recipient actually
wear it.”
Cool Cap Choices
This premium “Half Pipe” retro chino twill
cap features an updated performance sweatband
that wicks moisture away from your head so you can
stay cool and comfortable at any outdoor event. The
pre-curved bill blocks the sun and makes it a perfect
headwear solution for corporate programs and golf
events. Choose from 14 color combinations.
