Fishing Hats: Fashion and Function

Fashion and Function of Fishing Hats

Between online retailers and brick-and-mortar stores, consumers have more options than ever when choosing their clothing accessories. This has led them to expect more out of the products they buy. Customers want clothing that is functional and comfortable, while still following the latest style trends. These principles also apply to choosing corporate gifts for your team members and clients! When choosing your custom merch, you want to focus on versatile and popular apparel that recipients will enjoy...and that they will wear regularly, thereby showing off your company logo. Custom fishing hats are one example of a useful and trendy accessory that makes for great logo-branded gifts and giveaways.

Why branded fishing hats? These corporate gifts offer a way to connect personally with clients and colleagues, as they are closely tied to hobbies and leisure. First, they’re clearly a perfect gift for fishing enthusiasts and are great team wear for a company hiking/camping trip. But beyond those uses, logo-branded fishing hats offer comfortable sun protection at the beach, on a picnic, or during any outdoor activity. 

Below, we’ll discuss the growing popularity of these sporty headwear items. We’ll also share some of our favorite choices for custom fishing hats, which you can personalize with your embroidered corporate logo.

2024 Fishing Hat Trend

Fishing hats, also called bucket hats, feature a bell-shaped top and a downward-sloping brim all the way around the hat. According to the lifestyle magazine Country & Town House, these headwear pieces are well on their way to fashion ubiquity: “Once relegated to the likes of festivals and sunny days on the beach, bucket hats are fast making a name for themselves as the season’s must-have accessory.” And since fishing hats are on such an upward trend, now is a good time to give them as your custom gifts.

There is a wide range of fabrics and styles available. Common fabrics include cotton, canvas, and twill, and styles range from utilitarian to sporty to fashionable. With so many options out there, you can find the perfect fishing hats for your team, and you can have customized them with your corporate logo.

Benefits of Fishing Hats with Your Logo

Why are fishing hats becoming so popular? Their practicality and versatility are big factors. They offer sun protection for your face, ears, and neck, and some offer a chin strap to keep your hat secure on windy days. Most are made of lightweight material that won’t cause you to overheat. At the same time, the head coverage still provides some insulation on cooler days.

Whether you use the hats for actual fishing or just need a good hat for sunny days, fishing hats are useful additions to anyone’s wardrobe. And that means they are smart investments for your corporate merch and gifts.

When you add your embroidered logo to custom fishing hats, you will get high-impact brand recognition as people travel, hike, run errands, and enjoy summer events while wearing your logo-branded gift. These aren’t gifts that will sit in the back of the closet; instead, they will be frequently used and seen.
