When in Texas, BBQ is a must!

We’re in Dallas for the Impressions Expo, checking out new products, equipment, and ideas to bring back to Proof Engraving.

But you can’t come all the way to Texas and not make time for some good BBQ!

A little business, a little brisket. Not a bad way to spend the day.

Someone is going to have hundreds of stickers to cut in the morning.

80 days until Christmas! 🎄

It may feel early, but if you’re planning end-of-year corporate gifts, employee gifts, or customer appreciation gifts, now is the time to start getting those orders together.

We’re already seeing certain hat styles and color combinations go out of stock, with some not expected back until late October or even mid-November. As we get closer to Christmas, availability will only get tighter.

Whether you need custom hats, engraved tumblers, shirts, or other branded merchandise, ordering early gives us the best chance of getting exactly what you want without having to settle for second choices.

Don’t wait until December to start thinking about Christmas. Get your corporate gift orders started now.

Fresh off the truck. 🔥

We just got in a small batch of Richardson 880s, and these are ready for your next patch hat project.

🟠 Blaze Orange
🟠 Blaze Orange / Bottomland

We only have a few of each in stock, so if you’ve been looking for a high-vis option for hunting season, work crews, outdoor businesses, or branded gear, now’s the time.

Bring us your logo and we’ll turn them into finished hats.

One hat press was getting the job done. Three will get it done a whole lot better.

We’ve upgraded our hat production setup from one press to three, giving us more capacity to keep larger hat orders moving through the shop efficiently.

As our hat business continues to grow, we’re investing in the equipment and workflow to grow with it. More pressing capacity means less waiting between hats and a smoother process when we’re working through those bigger runs.

If you need custom patch hats for your business, brand, crew, or customers, Proof Engraving is ready to put in the work.

I'm not saying we don't have new shirts coming soon.

A little thread, a little foam, and some fall inspiration. 🍂

Trying out some puff embroidery in the shop! The raised stitching gives this “Hello Fall” design a little extra personality.

What do you think? Would you wear it?

New patch option just added to the website!

These UV-printed leatherette patches look great during the day, then the material glows in the dark when the lights go out. They are a fun way to make your logo or design stand out a little more.

No minimum order. Order one or order in bulk. Each patch comes heat press ready, or we can put them on hats for you.

Check them out here:

Custom UV printed glow-in-the-dark leatherette hat patches with no minimum. Made in Kentucky for apparel decorators, brands, businesses, and wholesale orders.

Labor Day weekend is coming up, but apparently I can’t quit messing with new ideas.

This one’s just a mockup right now.

DO AVERAGE ELSEWHERE.

So the question is... who wants me to put this on a real hat?
