Planning your caps order for Thailand
The calendar in Thailand sets the delivery window for caps. Hot and humid year-round with a rainy season from May to October; peaks follow Songkran, the winter tourist season and year-end holidays. For caps specifically, caps sell strongly in summer, at sports events and in promotional campaigns; winter beanies are ordered by July for the northern autumn. Our lead time is 25–40 days, plus sea transit of about 10–20 days, so we advise confirming orders early enough to land the goods before the peak rather than during it.
Typical buyers of caps in Thailand include promotional-merchandise companies, sports and event organisers, school and uniform suppliers and retail chains and wholesalers. Around Bangkok and Chiang Mai, they usually order 1,000–3,000 pieces per design; 500 pieces for stock colours with simple embroidery and reorder the styles that sell through, so we keep fabric, size ratios and labels on file for repeat shipments.
Fabric, fit and colour choices for Thailand
Thailand has distinct seasons, so we split caps into two ranges: lighter fabrics such as cotton twill 240–280 GSM for spring and summer, and heavier options such as acrylic knit for beanies for autumn and winter.
Sizes: Adjustable with strap, snap or buckle closures; fitted sizes S–XL; kids' sizes. Colours: Over 30 stock colours; contrast peaks, panels and under-peak colours.
Caps made in bulk to your colour, size and design
You are not limited to stock designs. We make caps in bulk in the colour you choose, in the sizes and size ratio your customers wear, and in the design you supply for the Thailand market. A reference garment, a tech pack, a sketch or even a photograph is enough to start.
How it works: send a Pantone code or fabric swatch for colour and we return a lab-dip; send your size chart and the ratio you want in each carton; send artwork, print, embroidery or label files for the design. We make a sample for approval and then produce the bulk to that approved sample, so the order you receive matches the one you signed off.
- Colour: Over 30 stock colours; contrast peaks, panels and under-peak colours.
- Size: Adjustable with strap, snap or buckle closures; fitted sizes S–XL; kids' sizes.
- Design and branding: 3D puff or flat embroidery, woven and rubber patches, custom colours and linings and private-label inside tapes and tags.
About our caps
Caps are also an easy add-on to a mixed container of T-shirts, polos and hoodies, giving a buyer a branded accessory range for very little extra freight.
A cap is cheap to ship and easy to brand, which is why it features in so many promotional orders. Delhi NCR and Mumbai units make structured and unstructured caps with precise embroidery, and can add woven patches, rubber badges or leather tags.
