In the promotional baseball cap segment, the Pitch occupies a precise space: it is the model, with no rear closure, for anyone who wants a clean fit and a sporty silhouette without the bulge of a or velcro mechanism. It is not an adjustable cap — it is a cap you choose in your own size and that fits naturally, like a garment.

The structured construction in -certified with recycled guarantees a consistent and a stable front panel for . The recycled elastic is the functional detail that sets the modern fitted apart from the rigid ones of the past: the elastic allows a small dimensional variation within the size, covering a wider circumference range than a fitted without elastic. The recycled visor completes the sustainable profile.

A verdict for each one.
What to expect on this specific product, technique by technique.
The structured front panel with recycled buckram on a 6-panel crown offers the optimal embroidery surface for a fitted cap: estimated 10×6 cm on the front, recommended start 2 cm from the visor edge. The rigid buckram structure supports high stitch-density embroidery without crown deformation. The seam dividing the two front panels requires the logo to sit entirely on one panel or run across both with a properly engineered embroidery file. Sides embroiderable 6×5 cm. The back is not accessible with a standard cap hoop due to the fully closed construction.
A woven, PVC or embroidered patch is particularly suitable on this fitted model: it covers the front seam, guaranteeing a continuous graphic area, and integrates visually with the structured sportswear aesthetic. Heat sealing applicable on the buckram-reinforced front panel, completed with perimeter stitching for maximum durability. Recommended size: 6-8 cm.
It is the choice for sports teams, brands with a sportswear aesthetic and companies that want a baseball cap with a professional profile and no visible closure mechanisms. Availability in two sizes — S/M and L/XL — requires size-based order management, but the aesthetic result justifies the extra step. It is not the right product for mass distributions where one-size is a logistical requirement.

The Pitch is the reference format for sports teams that want a uniform cap with a professional profile: the fitted construction without a snapback is the quintessential sports baseball cap aesthetic. Availability in S/M and L/XL allows an optimal fit for every member. The dark grey-black-navy palette covers most sports uniform colour combinations. GRS certification is added value for sustainability-minded sports organisations.
The fitted profile with an elastic sweatband is comfortable during physical activity: it does not slip, needs no adjusting and has no mechanisms that can loosen during movement. GRS-certified recycled polyester is the ideal technical material for outdoor sport. GRS certification adds narrative value for environmentally minded teams.
