Before You Order: What Coaches Should Collect First

A good Richardson PTS20 custom logo hat order starts before anyone clicks add to cart. The smoother the information is up front, the easier it is to review artwork, confirm sizing, and move the order toward production after proof approval.

1

Pick the team hat color that best matches the uniform, school colors, or travel ball package.

2

Collect the roster size breakdown for Youth, XS/S, S/M, and L/XL where available.

3

Upload the cleanest logo file you have, preferably AI, EPS, PDF, SVG, PNG, or JPG.

4

Decide if the front logo should be flat embroidery or 3D embroidery.

Why the PTS20 Works for Baseball and Softball Teams

The Richardson PTS20 Pulse R-Flex hat is built for teams that want a dependable performance cap with a classic on-field look. It uses Pulse performance fabric, a Mid-Pro crown, structured six-panel construction, a U-Form bill, Stay-Dri technology, and R-Flex stretch sizing.

That matters for real teams. Players need a hat that feels comfortable during practices, games, and tournament weekends. Coaches need the roster to look sharp. Athletic departments and team buyers need a hat that can be ordered with a clean custom logo and a clear proof process.

Clean Team Logo Look

The structured front gives the team logo a clean space to sew, which helps the finished hat look organized on the field.

Built for Team Use

The PTS20 is a strong choice for baseball teams, softball teams, school programs, travel ball, leagues, coaches, and athletic departments.

Performance Fit

R-Flex sizing gives players a fitted feel while still giving coaches a practical way to collect sizes across the roster.

The PTS20 Is Practical When the Team Needs One Clear Hat Choice

When the roster needs baseball team hats with logo embroidery, the PTS20 keeps the buying decision focused: choose the color, collect sizes, upload the logo, review the proof, and approve production.

Upload Your Team Logo

Choosing the Right Team Color

Start with the uniform. If your jerseys are navy and white, the hat should support that look. If your school has a strong primary color, keep the hat color clean and easy to match. If your team uses alternate uniforms, decide whether the PTS20 should match the main uniform or serve as a flexible team hat across multiple looks.

The Richardson PTS20 custom logo hat page includes a wide color selection, including solid colors, combination colors, alternate color options, and select colors with white eyelets. Size availability can vary by color, so it is smart to choose the color and confirm your size needs at the same time.

If the team is split between two colors, keep the logo and thread colors in mind. A logo that looks strong on black may need thread changes to stand out on white, grey, navy, or red. Graham Support can help review that before production.

How to Collect Team Sizes Without Confusion

Size collection is where many team orders slow down. The PTS20 uses R-Flex stretch sizing, and the available size options may include Youth, XS/S, S/M, and L/XL depending on the selected color. The simplest way to collect sizes is to send one message to the roster with the exact size choices and a deadline.

Send the Available Size Choices

Do not let players answer with random fitted sizes. Give them the PTS20 size options that apply to the order.

Separate Players and Coaches

Keep coach hats in the same count so the final order total is accurate before checkout.

Confirm the 12-Hat Minimum

GrahamHats.com offers the PTS20 custom logo hat for team orders with a 12-hat minimum per design.

Keep the Logo the Same

The team order should stay focused on the same front logo design so the order stays clean and easy to review.

Front Logo Embroidery Options for the PTS20

The front logo is the main branding piece on the Richardson PTS20 baseball hat. GrahamHats.com gives teams two front embroidery choices: flat embroidery and 3D embroidery. Both can look strong when they match the artwork.

Think of flat embroidery as the clean, classic team logo option. Think of 3D embroidery as the raised, bold-impact option. The best choice depends on the logo, not just the style name.

Flat Embroidery vs. 3D Embroidery for the PTS20

The right embroidery choice can make the finished custom Richardson team hats look cleaner. A detailed mascot may need flat embroidery. A bold letter logo may look better with 3D embroidery. Graham Support can help review the logo before production.

Choose Flat Embroidery When the Logo Has Detail

Flat embroidery is usually the safer choice for detailed team logos, mascots, school marks, small lettering, thin outlines, and designs that need a clean stitched finish. Most baseball and softball team logos work well in flat embroidery.

Choose 3D Embroidery When the Logo Is Bold

Richardson PTS20 3D embroidery works best for simple letters, bold shapes, strong outlines, and low-detail logos. It gives the front logo more depth, but thin lines and small detail do not always sew well in raised embroidery.

Artwork: Send the Best Logo File You Have

Good artwork helps produce better custom embroidered Richardson hats. Vector files such as AI, EPS, PDF, or SVG are preferred when available because they give the cleanest starting point for embroidery setup. A high-resolution PNG or JPG can also work in many cases.

Pictures of logos from a phone, screenshots, low-resolution website images, and stretched graphics can slow the process down. If that is all you have, upload it anyway and leave notes. Graham Support can review the file and help with the next step before production.

Include thread color notes if you already know them. If you are not sure, say that. It is better to ask for help than guess at colors that may not show well on the chosen hat.

Common Team Hat Ordering Mistakes to Avoid

Most custom hat issues are preventable. The PTS20 ordering process is straightforward, but coaches can save time by avoiding a few common mistakes before the order is placed.

Using a Logo That Is Too Small

A tiny image pulled from a website may not give enough detail for a clean embroidery setup. Upload the best version you have.

Guessing on Sizes

Collect sizes before ordering. Guessing can create problems once the team order moves toward production.

Choosing 3D for a Detailed Logo

3D embroidery is best for bold designs. If the logo has small text or fine detail, flat embroidery may produce a cleaner result.

Ignoring Thread Contrast

The logo needs to stand out from the hat. Dark thread on a dark cap or light thread on a light cap can reduce readability.

Proof First. Production After Approval.

After the order is placed, a proof is emailed for review before production begins. This gives your team a chance to review the logo setup, placement, thread colors, and decoration direction before the hats are made.

Start the Proof Process

What Happens After You Place the Order?

After checkout, Graham Hats reviews the custom PTS20 team order and contacts you by email if anything needs to be checked. That may include artwork quality, thread colors, optional embroidery locations, stock questions, size notes, or production details.

Order Review

Graham Support reviews the order details so the artwork, sizing, and decoration choices are clear.

Proof Email

A proof is emailed before production. This is where the team reviews the logo setup before the hats are made.

Final Approval

Production begins only after final artwork approval. Do not approve until the logo and details look right.

Production and Shipping

Custom PTS20 team orders usually ship about three weeks after final art approval.

Best Team Uses for the Richardson PTS20 Custom Logo Hat
