Promotional Straw Hats: Custom Brand Your Graphics & Logos

A Product Made for Branding

A successful promotional product gets used often and seen by many, making straw hats a fantastic choice for outdoor-focused branding. Unlike traditional baseball caps, straw hats with wider brims offer superior sun coverage and a distinct look that helps businesses stand out. Whether it is worn at a resort by guests, employees, or council workers patrolling the city streets, custom-branded straw hat ensures ongoing brand exposure.

Straw hats provide:

• Unhidden and front-view visibility of your brand
• Excellent sun protection for outdoor workers, event staff, and customers
• A stylish, natural look that suits a wide range of industries
• Comfort and Breathable material
• Versatility as both a functional item and a fashion accessory

Case Study: Down Under Koala Club

The Down Under Koala Club is a membership-based wildlife enthusiast organisation in Australia, focusing on koala conservation education, member outreach, and fundraising events (e.g., habitat tours, “Koala Awareness Day”, and school visits). The club placed an order with Cubic Promote for 800 straw hats, each printed with the Down Under Koala Club logo. These hats were intended for distribution during their summer field events, wild habitat walks, and as welcome gifts to new members.

The campaign was rolled out across Queensland and New South Wales during the summer months, particularly at Koala Awareness Day events in regional towns and local community festivals. For this order, we sourced natural straw material, selected a suitable hat style for sun protection, and matched the club’s earthy green logo.

Key Metrics:

• Arrived 4 days earlier than the scheduled date
• A 4% average increase in membership sign-ups occurred after the first two events.

This simple yet effective branded item campaign helped Down Under Koala Club strengthen public awareness, deliver a functional gift to participants, and drive new membership growth.

Printing Options Available

Straw hats offer several customisation options that allow businesses to create a distinctive promotional product. Branding techniques and decoration surfaces include:

• Custom Hatbands – Pad Printing or embroidery on a fabric hatband wrapped around the hat.
• Patch on the Crown – Extra brand visibility embroidering on the patch or pad printing.

For businesses that want to enhance the presentation, straw hats can also be packaged in branded dust bags or boxes, making them ideal for high-end promotions or souvenir merchandise. Utilise our in-house graphic designers for logo redraws or designs. Design services start at AUD35 an hour.

Natural Vs. Artificial

Choosing between natural and artificial straw hats boils down to authenticity versus durability. Natural straw hats, crafted from organic materials like wheat straw or palm leaves, offer an authentic, rustic appeal and superior breathability. On the other hand, artificial straw hats, made from synthetic materials such as polyester or nylon, prioritise durability but may lack the organic texture and eco-friendly charm of natural options. Consider your brand’s aesthetic and sustainability goals when deciding between the two.
