How to Order Custom Leather Patch Hats (What It Is Like to Work With Outsiders Supply)
If you have ever tried to order custom hats for your business, you already know how it usually goes:
- Slow responses
- Limited hat options
- Confusing pricing
- Generic design support, if any at all
And worst of all, you feel like just another order number.
That is exactly why we built a different process at Outsiders Supply Co.
If you are considering a custom leather patch hats bulk order, this breakdown shows exactly what it is like to work with us from first contact to delivery.
Step 1: You Reach Out and Talk to a Real Person
No bots. No ticket systems. No bouncing between departments.
When you reach out through our website , Instagram , email, call, or text, you are talking directly to Ben or Jordan.
From the first conversation, we focus on three things:
- What you need
- What your vision is
- What your end goal looks like
This is where we separate ourselves right away.
We are not just taking an order. We are working with you to build something that fits your brand.
Step 2: We Help You Choose the Right Hats
Once we understand your goals, we help you decide on the right hats for your business.
We look at:
- Your industry
- Your customer base
- How the hats will be used
- The overall look you want to achieve
You are not limited to a small catalog
Because of our procurement network, we can source a wide range of hat blanks as long as they are in stock.
That includes:
- Meshback trucker hats
- Performance rope hats
- Flat bill styles
- Structured and unstructured fits
If there is a specific hat you have in mind, we can usually get it.
This gives you flexibility that most suppliers simply do not offer.
Step 3: We Design Your Patch With You
This is one of the most important parts of the process.
You can:
- Send us your logo
- Bring us an idea
- Or have us create a design from scratch
Design is included on bulk orders
If you need help creating something, we will build it for you and refine it until it is right.
We design with production in mind, which means:
- Clean lines
- Proper contrast
- Strong readability on leather
You will see exactly what you are getting
Before anything goes into production, we send you a design proof.
You will know exactly what your hats will look like before we make them.
No guessing. No surprises.
Step 4: You Approve and Place Your Order
Once your design is approved and your hat styles and quantities are finalized:
- We confirm all order details
- You submit payment
- Production is scheduled
We keep this step simple and clear so nothing gets missed.
Step 5: Production Begins After Payment
Once payment is received, we begin production.
Typical production timelines:
- Orders under 100 hats
Ship in about 2 to 4 weeks - Orders over 100 hats
Ship in about 2 to 6 weeks, depending on current production volume - Large orders approaching 1,000 hats or more
We can break shipments up so you receive hats in batches as they are completed
This means you can start using or selling your hats sooner instead of waiting for the entire order to finish.
Step 6: Delivery and What to Expect
When your hats arrive, they are ready to go.
At this point, most of our customers are using them for:
- Employee gear
- Customer merchandise
- Retail sales
- Brand promotion
Because the process was handled correctly from the start, the final product reflects your brand the way it should.

That only happens when the process is done with intention from the beginning.
