Embroidery Q&A

We suggest ordering a few blank caps or shirts that you may be interested in having us embroider or print for you. We cannot be responsible if product colors are not exactly as shown on the website because dye lots change and material is purchased from various factories. This way you are sure that you like that particular item. You can place your order through our other website; www.capwholesalers.com .
