Cap Showdown: 5-Panel vs. 6-Panel

What is the difference between
5-Panel & 6-Panel Hats?

Many people assume that when choosing a hat to customize, they need to choose a 5-panel hat because of the seam going down the front. While it is true that 5-panels are a little bit easier to sew and print, we believe you should choose the hat fit and look you love. Our team will make sure that we give you a high quality result no matter which you choose.

  • 5-Panel hats have no seam running down the front of them.
  • They will have a little peak at the top where the fabric panels come together.
  • They will fit similarly to a 6-panel cap, all things equal.
  • Almost all 5-panel hats have a snapback closure.
  • Most 5 panels will have a structured or stiff front, unlike dad caps.
  • Provides a nice smooth surface great for no minimum embroidery, patches or transfers.
