NEW PRODUCT, SAME TRUSTED QUALITY
Coal set out in 2002 to redefine what intentional, beautifully functional headwear could be, blazing a trail through the winter sports industry that dismissed headwear as an afterthought accessory. What started as a humble side hustle drawing from deep roots in art, skate, and snowboard culture evolved into a respected lifestyle brand with global reach.
Along the way, a growing number of our retail partners began to envision custom headwear styles emblazoned with their own names and logos. We happily dug into the archives and unearthed legacy Coal styles and fabrications that were soon to become the blueprint for custom requests. For our big-dreamer partners, we even built a process for creating full-on, custom-built headwear. Now, the project has grown to become Coal Customs but our mission has remained the same: create premium custom headwear for like-minded brands.

FAQ

FAQ

FAQ
CAN YOU MATCH PANTONE COLORS?
Yes. This is how we make sure color matching is exact.
IS THERE A CHARGE FOR ARTWORK?
Our design team is happy to help you create artwork. From-scratch design or modifications to a low-res .jpg or .pdf will be charged $125/hr. We always communicate estimated artwork charges before we dig in. If you send us vector artwork or a high-res .pdf, there will be no charge.
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ART ARRANGEMENT AND CUSTOM DESIGN?
Art Arrangement: you provide us a ready-to-go .ai, .eps, .psd, or a high-resolution .pdf file, we arrange on your headwear free of charge.
Custom Design: you provide an idea or a low-res .jpg or .pdf and our designers dig in to make sure the final product is beautiful and production compatible.
WHAT IS VECTOR ARTWORK? WHAT IF I DON'T HAVE IT?
A vector file is an editable raw design file created with shapes, curves, points, polygons, strokes, and colors. They allow designers to expand or reduce the graphic in size without losing quality. Acceptable formats include .ai, .psd, .eps, or a high-resolution .pdf. If you don’t have a vector, in most cases we can vectorize it. A custom design fee of $125/hr is charged in these instances, but cost could go up depending on complexity.
WHAT DOES YOUR QUALITY CONTROL PROCESS LOOK LIKE?
We’ve spent years developing our tech packs so they provide every necessary detail down to sizing, Pantone colors, yarns, packaging, and placement requirements. Once we submit our tech packs to our manufacturers, all samples are approved by our overseas manager prior to bulk production. Once the products arrive at our facility, each item is inspected thoroughly before shipping out to you.
Quality is of the utmost importance to us and we do everything we can to give you a product you can be proud to wear.
DO YOU SHIP INTERNATIONALLY?
In order to save on duties, we can skip shipping in and out of the US and direct ship from our manufacturer to you. Though we lose out on our in-house quality inspection, we have a high level of trust in our manufacturer’s abilities to get you an exacting product.
CAN I ORDER A SAMPLE PRIOR TO PRODUCTION?
Yes. Keep in mind that this will add two to three weeks to the lead time. The cost is $220 for two samples. We can provide sample photos for approval in some cases, but rest assured that we have an exhaustive quality control process all the way to bulk production. We do not order physical samples for patches.
CAN I SPLIT MY MINIMUM ORDER BETWEEN TWO COLORWAYS?
All minimum order quantities are per color, per style.
IS THERE A COAL LABEL ANYWHERE ON THE HAT?
All of our orders are built with an external Coal label and an internal Custom Headwear Division label.
CAN I ADD EXTRA LABEL PLACEMENT?
Yes. We recommend keeping it simple and limiting your labeling to no more than two placements. One is standard and baked into the price per unit. Every additional label incurs an additional fee.
CAN WE MAKE HATS OR BEANIES THAT ARE NOT IN THE CLASSICS LINE UP?
Yes, but the minimum order becomes 300 per color, per style. The custom manufacturing process is much more involved than choosing from our standard lineup, but if you would like to pursue that route, contact us and we’re happy to walk you through the process.
CAN YOU MATCH PANTONE COLORS?
Yes. This is how we make sure color matching is exact.
