Clothing should reflect you in every way, so why not top off your unique look with your Custom Beanie Hat? This handmade personalised beanie hat is a timeless accessory, which will add a touch of edge and contemporary style to your everyday, casual look. Make your own beanie hat here. Each custom made beanie hat is made from two different fabrics and can be personalised on the external and the lining. Update your look with your exclusive Beanie Hat, handmade for you by Contrado.
The Contrado Custom Made Beanie is printed and sewn in-house using our own pattern. To create the ultimate beanie, we have designed it so it can be worn 2 ways; slightly more fitted, with the trim turned up, or more relaxed and slouchy, with the trim left down. The external of this stylish hat is made from a soft and elastic Diamond Jersey fabric, while the cosy lining is made from the slightly bouncy, heavier Quilted Jersey. You can make your personalised beanie even more bespoke to you by choosing the size, thread colour and optional fabric label.

It's All In The Details
A beanie should be warm, soft and have enough stretch to give it that fabulous slouchy look. We use 2 fabrics; Diamond Jersey and Quilted Jersey, to give your personalised beanies the ideal characteristics. Soft and breathable jersey is comfortable to wear and prints like a dream.

Your label, your brand
Wear your brand, with your custom Beanie Labels. Brand your beanie with your name or logo: or personalise it for the recipient with their name or a personal message. This raw-edged sewn label is made from the same great fabric as the rest of the beanie, meaning you get great colour consistency, and never have to worry about sewing your own labels again. Fun to wear around town, this custom label is great for building your brand.
Style it with
We can't think of an everyday outfit that a great beanie cap wouldn't look great with. All styles of fashion have adopted this fun accessory to add a street and contemporary edge. Keep it urban cool and team your Custom Made Beanie with a Customised Hoodie and Customised Leggings or why not give it a smarter edge and wear it with skinny jeans and the Custom Bomber Jacket? However you style it, just design your own beanie hat your way and you can't go wrong.
Care instruction
Turn inside out before washing. Iron on the reverse of the printed side. 30°c wash. Low tumble heat. Do not wring. Low heat iron. Steam safe.
One of our favourite aspects of the Custom Made Beanie is that you can wear it 2 ways. The turn-up trim isn't sewn in place, so you can wear it turned up, for a more fitted look, or you turned down and create a more slouchy beanie look. If you turn the trim up, you have the option of showcasing your branded label.
Is my custom beanie suitable for winter?
Your personalised beanie is the ideal hat to keep you cosy in the winter. It is made from a double layer of warm fabric; Diamond Jersey on the outside and Quilted Jersey for the lining. These jersey fabrics are warm, very soft and add beautiful texture and detail, which makes them the perfect fabric for the classic beanie.
Can I brand my own line of beanies?
At Contrado, we strive to help designers create their own brands. Your Custom Made Beanie would make the perfect launch pad for someone looking to create their own accessory or fashion line. Opt for adding a fabric label, which is sewn onto the turn-up trim and show the world your talent.
Beanies
Keep warm with unique beanie designs, created by independent artists and local designers.
To find your perfect hat size for your custom beanie hat, use a soft tape measure or a piece of string (which can be measured afterwards). Place the measuring tape or string just above your ear, and across your forehead, wrapping round to the back of your head. Don't pull too tightly - leave the tape a little loose. If you find your size in the middle of our sizing brackets, go a size up.

Print Guideline
What's the best resolution to print in?
We print at 200dpi, which is a good combination of quality and file weight. Ideally your image should be scaled to 100% at 200dpi; this means that no resizing of your file occurs, preventing any interpolation. Our design interface will have a quality marker next to the design that you have uploaded, this will change colour using a traffic light system and display a message. The message will let you know if the resolution is too low or if you have a good quality image.
How will my image scale?
When you upload your design our system will automatically scale it to fit your chosen fabric dimensions. In the ‘Product Image’ tab, the displayed dimensions under ‘Print Size’ will show the dimensions of the piece of fabric that you are ordering. For image/design dimensions you need to see the ‘Images & Text Tools’ tab. You can see and edit the dimensions of the image under the quality information next to the thumbnail.
Which colour model should I choose? RGB or CMYK?
We advise providing images in the RGB colour space. Specifically using the sRGB image profile, to achieve best colour results. What does this mean? In your editing software choose RGB as the working space, and assign the image profile as sRGB (full name sRGB IEC61966-2.1)
What is gsm?
Grams per square meter (gsm) is the unit of measurement used to measure the weight of a paper or fabric. This measurement uses the weight of one square metre (1000 x 1000mm) as an indication of the weight and thickness of a fabric. We classify fabrics of 10-100gsm as light (fabrics for summer, fine silk), fabrics of 101-249gsm as medium (most fabrics for clothing) and fabrics of more than 250gsm as thick (upholstery and other specialised fabrics).
What is the bleed area?
When creating your product, it is important to make sure that your image is a little wider than the size needed. In printing, the bleed area allows you to obtain a borderless print. We would advise filling the blead areas, maked with a red checkered area, to ensure you don't end up with white edges. You should make sure that you do not put important details within the bleed area as these will quite likely be lost.
What is crocking and why might it occur?
Crocking, which is fading along the creases, often after washing or heavy use, occurs when you digitally print on natural fabrics - more so when dark or dense colours are used. It can be minimised by using a cool hand wash instead of machine washing as the tumbling of the machine is the main cause of this. To avoid entirely, we would advise using a poly fabric.
Why do my colours appear lighter on organic fabrics?
Our organic fabrics do not have any coatings that the non-organic fabrics have. This means the ink absorbs into the fibres, reducing the colour strength slightly (by approx. -40%). For super strong colours we recommend a non-organic natural fabric.
Can you perfectly join two separately printed panels?
We always try to provide the utmost precision in printing and manufacturing. However, due to unavoidable stretching or movement of the fabric at the time of sewing, we can not guarantee a perfect alignment of the pattern on the seams of the garment. Generally we are accurate to 2-3mm, which is sufficient for most reasons but can pose minor problems with patterns or geometric designs.
Should I save my file as a TIFF or JPEG?
For multi-coloured or very detailed files we recommend using a tiff format, but they must be flattened. For simple colours and low detail files, a jpeg is fine.
Is it possible to print your own label?
Most of our clothing is made with a label space. You can print your label and add information about your brand. If you want to sew your own labels, we offer customizable labels of different sizes.
Can I print on both sides of the fabric?
We do not offer printing on both sides of the fabric, as a lot of our fabrics are semi-transparent. As the customer, you can consider the effect of printing on both sides one of our fabrics and contact us, and we will get back to you if it's feasible.
Can I order labels in another fabric? Will you cut them like you do with the normal fabric labels?
At the moment no, our labels are all printed on the same satin fabric. We may introduce more in the future, but for now this is the best choice. The labels are all cut the same way. You can order the fabric of your choice and make the labels yourself, but we do not cut different fabric into label format.
How is your fabric printing eco-friendly?
With environmental consciousness in mind, our fabrics are all printed using completely water-based inks. This means no chemicals or solvents are used. Our heat fixing procedure fixes the colours and prints, avoiding the downsides of steaming, such as excess or contaminated water returning into the waste system. We have one facility in London where we conduct all the printing, production and fulfillment.
Why are there slight colour differences between my orders?
We work at improving our colour profiles all the time. Though rare it may happen that from one print run to another, and there could be slight colour differences, this is normal and part of the process when we are constantly improving. It is extremely unlikely that there will be a huge difference (like orange instead of red for example). Please bear in mind such colour variations can be intensified from fabric to fabric due to the varying grains and textures of the fabric; natural fabrics tend to have more muted colours than their poly alternatives. This is due to the construction of the materials as well as the print methods that have to be altered slightly for more delicate, natural textiles.
Please note: As everything we provide is handmade to order, you may find a slight variance in the sizes.
