Hat Patches & Printing
Vinyl Fire offers multiple professional methods for customizing hats, allowing us to match the right process to your design, material, and intended use. From clean printed graphics to premium engraved patches, we produce hat decoration that looks sharp and holds up.
All hat patches and transfers are produced and finished in-house in North Idaho for consistent quality and reliable results.
You’ve got options.
DTF transfers allow full-color designs to be applied directly to hats with excellent detail and durability. This method is ideal for complex artwork, gradients, and small production runs.
