In every product description on our website
Thread Logic related to caps, you will see the one of these two terms; constructed
or unconstructed. You will also sometimes see the terms “structured” and
“unstructured”. It is one of the most commonly used terms to
describe a cap style and it is also some of the most questioned.
Customers always ask us what those terms
mean when it comes to caps with logo embroidery.
In a constructed cap, there
is a piece of material called buckram that is placed in the crown of the cap
and it helps the crown hold its shape.
One of the most common examples is that of a baseball style cap.
The crown in this cap has a distinct
shape. The buckram holds the crown up
giving it a more formal or uniform look.
In an unconstructed cap, that piece of the
buckram is not used. Therefore, the
crown of the cap is lays more flat against the forehead. It is a less formal or more casual look for a
cap. Some people call these floppy caps.
Constructed caps are great if you are
looking for a more formal, uniform or athletic look for your company logo.
Unconstructed caps tend to be more casual
and informal looking. People also seem
to really like the way these caps fit on their head. That’s why you will see more people wearing
unconstructed caps than constructed one.
At Thread Logic, we sell way more
unconstructed caps than we do constructed ones.
As you can see the logo embroidered cap you
chose has a lot to do with the kind of look you are trying to achieve. We also recommend thinking about who will be
wearing the cap. Are they more likely
and/or comfortable wearing a certain style?
Very few women wear constructed caps outside of an athletic team so you
may take that into consideration as well.
Either way, embroidered caps are very
functional and a great way to promote your company or organization with
beautiful logo embroidery.
