Blank Hats Fabric Guide
When purchasing blank hats wholesale, people often overlook the fabric of the hats. If customization is part of the agenda, disregarding the fabric may not be a good idea. Additionally, the cap material also plays a role in the overall comfort of the cap and its longevity.
Here is a short walkthrough of the pros and cons of CapBargain’s available fabric options.
COTTON
Cotton is spun natural fiber and among the most popular materials for manufacturing apparel and accessories like blank wholesale caps. Cotton caps are notably soft, breathable and ideal for embroidery designs. The moisture control is great and the insulation doesn’t compromise comfort. Cotton fabric is also hypoallergenic, making it an ideal choice for wearers with sensitive skin. However, 100% cotton hats are relatively pricier compared to synthetic fibers. Cotton is not as durable as some of its artificial counterparts, which is one of the reasons why the fabric is blended with other materials such as polyester for enhanced durability.
As you browse our cotton cap collection, you will come across terms like brushed, twill, or washed in the product descriptions.
Brushed Cotton
A soft-to-touch variant of cotton made for its raised fibers that trap more air. This improves insulation to a considerable extent. It gets the name after the natural fabric is brushed with a fine metal brush to remove impurities. Brushed cotton is super soft but is more prone to shrinkage and pilling over time.
Cotton Twill
A cotton twill is made by a unique weaving technique where a series of parallel diagonal ribs are formed on the surface of the fabric, with the ribs’ visibility depending on the yarn’s thickness.
Washed Cotton
Washed cotton' is also known as pre-washed (or garment-washed) cotton. It is softer and mostly chosen for its ‘lived-in’ look.

Polyester is a synthetic fabric known for durability, abrasion-resistance and moisture-resistance. It’s made from petroleum and is actively used in manufacturing blank activewear, cheap hoodies and blank caps. Headwear made of polyesters lasts longer and costs less. They also have excellent colorfastness. Polyester caps are relatively not as breathable as cotton caps, but efficiently wicks sweat to keep wearers dry and comfortable any day. These features make polyester caps ideal for wearers in the sports industry or into fitness.

Poly-cotton blends come with the best features of cotton and polyester; nearly as breathable as the former and with moisture-wicking like the latter. Poly-Cotton caps generally have at least 50% cotton in the blend, and come in ratios of 80/20 or 65/35. They are durable while retaining a soft feel of cotton, offering great comfort and promising longevity.

WOOL
Wool and wool blends can make the warmest hats. Wool and its blends are used to manufacture a variety of hats including beanies, snapbacks, baseball hats, berets and even fedoras. In CapBargain, you can purchase blank hats in bulk that are made of wool blended with other fabrics such as cotton, which guarantees better durability. As these caps keep wearers warm in windy and rainy environments, wool remains a preferred choice during the colder seasons. However, wool may cause skin irritations to some people, and in some cases even make the hair brittle. Wool blends are technically safer for regular use.

Nylon is a synthetic fabric used for manufacturing blank hats wholesale. Caps made from nylon are inherently lightweight, with wearers barely feeling them on their heads. However, nylon isn’t regarded for its moisture-wicking ability unlike polyester. One can choose nylon caps for easy-to-care headwear that doesn’t shrink or lose its shape.

Acrylic is a synthetic fabric known for its shape retention properties and durability. It can be shaped into many thicknesses, making it a great choice in the manufacture of snapback hats. With a mildly textured surface, acrylic also resists stains. The most useful trait of acrylic is that it’s easy to dye and customize. It also has great insulation and is malleable enough to be considered a decent alternative to wool in the manufacture of stretchable winter beanies.
