Custom Beanie Manufacturer
Custom knit beanies — cuffed, uncuffed and pom styles in ribbed and jacquard knits — with your logo for fall, winter and ski-season runs. Unlike our baseball caps and trucker hats, a beanie has no brim and no closure: the knit itself stretches to fit the head, folds flat and ships efficiently.

Beanies are a knit extension of our range — not another baseball cap
A beanie sits differently from everything else in our headwear catalog. Where a custom baseball cap carries a brim and an adjustable closure, a beanie has no brim and no buckle — it relies on the stretch of the knit to hug the head, so sizing is forgiving and every piece folds flat for efficient packing and shipping. Buyers who already run custom trucker hats often add beanies to the same program so their brand appears across both summer and winter seasons.
We manufacture beanies in cuffed, uncuffed, pom and slouch styles, knit in ribbed or jacquard construction. Logos are most often applied by flat embroidery directly onto the knit, or finished with a sewn woven patch or leather patch on the cuff or crown. Jacquard knits your mark into the fabric itself for a tonal result that will not crack or peel.
Because beanies are lightweight and fold flat, they are efficient to ship and well suited to fall retail drops, corporate winter gifting and ski-resort merch. Send your logo and quantity and we will prepare a mockup and artwork proof before any order. Every run is checked against the approved sample the same way we work across the hat factory, so a beanie order slots into a workflow you already trust.
Buyer Risk Check
Where beanie projects go wrong
Knit density is too light
A thin knit lowers perceived value and warmth. Confirm yarn, rib structure and stretch recovery on the physical sample.
Cuff height changes the logo
Embroidery and patch placement depend on the folded cuff. The mockup should show fold height and visible logo area.
Jacquard detail is overestimated
Fine text and gradients rarely translate cleanly into knit. We check artwork before recommending jacquard or a patch.
Why choose our knit beanies
Four reasons cold-weather brands add beanies to the same program as their caps — and to us for production.
One-size stretch fit
No brim and no closure — the knit itself hugs the head and adapts to head circumference, so sizing is forgiving and every beanie folds flat for efficient packing and shipping.
Cuffed, uncuffed & pom styles
Choose a folded cuff for a classic look, an uncuffed beanie for a lower profile, or a pom for resort and streetwear appeal. Each style is knit to your spec.
Ribbed & jacquard knits
Ribbed construction gives stretch and structure, while jacquard knits your mark into the fabric for a tonal logo that will not crack or peel. Cable knits are also available.
Fall, winter & ski ready
Beanies are the cold-weather counterpart to our caps, built for fall retail drops, corporate winter gifting and ski-resort merch. Checking against the approved sample keeps every logo sharp through the run.

Frequently asked questions
MOQ for custom beanies is confirmed by knit structure, yarn color, cuff style, logo method and packaging. This lets you test handfeel and stretch before a full seasonal run.
Yes. We prepare a free artwork proof first, then a physical sample so you can check knit density, fold height, yarn color, stretch and logo label or embroidery before bulk production.
Production is scheduled after sample approval. Beanie timing depends on yarn availability, knit structure, cuff style, label method, quantity and packing.
We accept AI, EPS, PDF and PNG at 300 dpi. Vector files give the cleanest result for embroidery, jacquard and woven patches. If you only have a raster file, our team will advise on the best decoration method.
Flat embroidery is the most common choice and holds well on ribbed knits. Jacquard knits the logo directly into the fabric, while woven patches and leather patches add a premium, removable look. We recommend the method based on your artwork and quantity.
Yes. We keep a wide stock of yarn colors, and Pantone matching is available so your beanie matches the rest of your branded merchandise.
Beanies are a one-size stretch fit that adapts to head circumference, with no brim and no closure to adjust. This makes them easy to stock and give away without sizing charts.
Cuffed, uncuffed, pom and slouch styles, knit in ribbed or jacquard construction. We help you choose the fold, pom and knit that fit your brand and price point.
Yes. We support private label with your woven label, heat-transfer neck label or printed size tag inside the beanie. This is standard for brands and retailers building their own line.
We ship worldwide by express courier, air freight or sea freight depending on your quantity and deadline. Freight is quoted separately, and we can deliver to your nominated forwarder.
100 pieces per style and colour, the same as caps. Knit beanies are knitted to order rather than cut, so the colour and the yarn are fixed before the machines start.
Yes, but the knit moves under the needle, so the design needs more underlay and a simpler shape. Small text under about 5 mm is unreliable on a knit and is usually replaced by a woven label.
A woven label sewn into the cuff is the most durable and the cheapest per unit. Embroidery on the cuff works too, but the cuff is the part that stretches, so the design has to tolerate that.
A beanie generally lands below a decorated cap at the same quantity, because there is no crown structure, no closure and no brim. The knit yarn and the decoration are the two lines that move the price.
