Custom caps are made-to-order overseas and allow us to offer them to you in an expansive variety of customizable options. In addition, embroidering a logo on a flat panel prior to constructing the cap allows for finer detail, expanded 3D capabilities and larger logo sizes. Since custom caps are made-to-order and ship from overseas, they require a longer lead time.
Stock caps are pre-built Nike caps in popular styles and core colors. Stock inventory is available in our Missouri facility.
