Performance nylon hat
Raised CT badge
Shopify-ready drop
First summer drop
A tight launch assortment, ready for Shopify.
Start with the products that make the brand believable now, then let demand decide what earns inventory later.
Hat blank direction
Not cloth-back. Performance back.
The first sample should be a structured performance rope hat with nylon/poly panels, perforation, and a stretch or adjustable performance back. That keeps it closer to high-end golf and lake wear, not a basic cotton promo cap.
Build around the hatNylon/poly body
Light, clean, and more summer golf than cotton twill.
Perforated back
Breathable enough for heat, rounds, lake days, and travel.
Raised CT badge
Silicone/PVC patch gives the hat the premium product signal.
Manual first batch
Control quality and packaging until volume proves automation.
Summer lookbook
Course, lake, trail, repeat.
Shopify-ready operations
Built around simple fulfillment rules.
Rope hats ship manually at launch, tees can connect through Printify, polos stay sample-gated, and shorts remain preorder or waitlist until fit demand is clear.
Manual hats
Performance rope hats become tracked Shopify inventory with manual fulfillment, branded packing, and clear ship timing.
Printify tees
Tees can start as POD so graphics and sizes launch inside Shopify without tying up cash in inventory.
Apliiq polos
Polos stay sample-gated until the blank, decoration method, margin, and photos are launch-ready.
Shorts preorder
Shorts remain preorder or waitlist only so sizing feedback arrives before inventory or return risk grows.
