In the baseball cap segment, the Cruz is the only flat-visor in cotton of the selection: 5 panels, front, canvas in 80% organic cotton and 20% recycled cotton certified, flat visor and snapback closure in recycled material. It's the natural, soft-hand alternative to recycled-polyester snapbacks, with the garment wash giving it a lived-in look.

The choice of unstructured cotton canvas and the garment wash have a direct consequence on customization: cotton is the substrate of choice for printing, and indeed the spec declares the model 'ideal for printing' with a front screen-print area up to 10×6 cm, wide and flat. The unstructured front also accepts up to 12×6 cm and transfer well. It's one of the few baseball models where front is provided in large format.
Printing techniques.
A verdict for each one.
What to expect on this specific product, technique by technique.
It's this model's technique of choice: the unstructured cotton canvas front is declared ideal for printing, with a front area up to 10×6 cm, wide and flat. Cotton absorbs water-based or plastisol inks well with a crisp result and full colors. Also on the sides up to 6×5 cm. Recommended for graphics from 1 to several colors.
Cotton canvas accepts embroidery very well: the spec indicates a front area up to 12×6 cm, with a recommended start 2 cm from the bill. Areas also on sides up to 10×6 cm and back 8×3.5 cm. The unstructured front is less rigid than a buckram front: for very structured 3D puff logos a structured model is preferable, but for classic flat embroidery the result is excellent.

It's the right choice for those seeking a snapback with a natural, lived-in aesthetic, in cotton fiber, with a strong vocation for front printing. It isn't the right product for those seeking a technical material or a water-repellent treatment: its value is the soft hand of washed cotton canvas and the large front print area.

Declared certifications.
And what they guarantee.
We list only third-party certifications declared by the manufacturer: some concern the environment, others the safety of substances or working conditions.
Certifies that the recycled content declared in this product is authentic and traceable through the production chain. Applies to all types of recycled material: polyester, cotton, nylon, wool. The percentage of recycled content stated in the composition is verified, not a marketing claim. It does not assess the environmental impact of the recycling process or working conditions in recycling facilities: it certifies the origin and traceability of the material, not how it was processed.
