Collection: Custom Leather Patch Hats

Most Canadian custom apparel shops require bulk orders. At 403 Custom Cuts, we believe in accessibility. We offer no minimum orders on custom leatherette patch hats, meaning you can order a single personalized hat for a gift or 500 hats for your national business. Our tiered pricing ensures that the more you buy, the more you save.

Based in Calgary, Alberta, we provide fast production times and reliable shipping to every province. Whether you are in Vancouver, Edmonton, Toronto, or Halifax, we ensure your custom headwear arrives on time and ready to wear.

From the humid summers of Ontario to the cold winters of Alberta, our custom leatherette patches are designed to withstand the elements. They are water-resistant, easy to clean, and bonded with industrial-grade thermal adhesive to ensure your patch stays securely attached to the hat, no matter where your adventures take you.

Our state-of-the-art production technology offers two distinct ways to bring your brand to life. We utilize high-precision lasers to etch designs directly into genuine leather for a permanent, rugged look, as well as advanced UV printing technology for vibrant, full color patches.

Whether you choose the classic aesthetic of our Rawhide, Black/Gold, or Charcoal engraved patches or the high-impact detail of our full color UV patches, the result is a crisp, professional finish that won’t fade, peel, or crack over time. This versatility makes our headwear the top choice for complex corporate logos, colorful team gear, and high-end promotional branding across Canada.

A premium patch is only as good as the hat it sits on. That is why we exclusively use industry-leading headwear brands known for their fit and longevity.

The Legendary Richardson 112

The Richardson 112 Trucker Hat is our most popular seller for a reason. Featuring a classic mid-pro profile, adjustable snapback, and breathable mesh, it provides the perfect canvas for our custom leatherette patches. We stock a wide variety of colorways, from classic charcoal/white to bold neon combinations.

Professional Yupoong & Flexfit Styles

Looking for something different? We also offer premium Yupoong snapbacks and Flexfit caps. These brands provide a modern, sleek profile that is perfect for streetwear brands or high-end corporate gifts.

How do I clean my leatherette patch hat?

We recommend hand-washing with soap and water only. Use a damp cloth to wipe the patch and a soft brush for the fabric.

Can you engrave complex logos?

Yes! Because we use laser engraving rather than embroidery, we can achieve much finer detail. We recommend uploading a high-resolution vector file (SVG, AI, or PDF) for the best results.

Why do we use Faux Leather?

1. High-Contrast "Pop"

Genuine leather burns "tone-on-tone." If you laser-engrave a brown leather patch, the logo is just a darker shade of brown.

• The Leatherette Advantage: It is engineered to reveal a secondary color (like black, silver, or gold) when engraved. This creates a high-contrast logo that is much easier to see from a distance, making your branding far more effective.

2. Built for the Canadian Climate

Canadian weather is tough on natural materials. Real leather is like a sponge—it absorbs water, snow, and sweat.

• The Problem with Real Leather: When it gets wet and then dries, it can become stiff, curled, or "spotted."
• The Leatherette Advantage: It is water-resistant and durable. It won’t warp in a Vancouver rainstorm or crack in a Calgary winter. It stays soft and looks new longer.

3. Precision for Detailed Logos

Real leather has natural fibers that can "fuzz" or char unevenly when hit with a laser.

• The Leatherette Advantage: Because it’s a uniform, synthetic material, the laser cuts with micro-precision. If your logo has small text, thin lines, or intricate details, leatherette is the only way to ensure it looks sharp and professional.

4. Consistency Across the Board

Real leather is an animal hide, meaning every square inch is different. One patch might be thick, the next thin; one might be light, the next dark.

• The Leatherette Advantage: It is 100% consistent. If you order 50 hats, every single patch will be the exact same shade, thickness, and texture. This is crucial for businesses that want a uniform look for their team.

5. Ethical & Vegan-Friendly

Many Canadian companies are prioritizing sustainability and animal-free products.

• The Leatherette Advantage: It is vegan leather. You can offer your customers a rugged, "outdoorsy" look while staying 100% cruelty-free.
