Not only are they affordable, but they are comfortable, stylish, and durable – deliberately designed to withstand the rough and tumble life of their energetic owners.
If you are planning next year’s uniforms, or are in need of some special sports styles, in this blog we reveal Red Oak’s 3 most popular school headwear styles and how you can customise them with your school emblem and colours.
Red Oak’s Custom School Headwear Solutions
All of the custom headwear options from Red Oak Uniforms are made from our performance micromesh.
It is a fabric that does not fade, shrink or lose its shape, so expect our hats to outlast any others on the market.
Along with adding your school’s embroidered logo, we are able to customise your hats as we have a range of styles and a variety of colour choices.
We stock 18 standard hues to ensure consistency for schools who place repeat orders.
Red Oak Uniforms is also able to produce custom colour dye batches in order to match specific school and event colours.

What is the ordering process?
Step 1: If desired, generic samples are sent first for an initial assessment.
Step 2: Discussions take place regarding design, production and delivery deadlines before the design brief is finalised.
Step 3: Subject to lead times, a production sample may be possible. Once final approval given, production is underway.
Step 4: Order fulfilled and items delivered.
When do designs need to be finalised for the next school year?
The exact dates will be subject to our production lead times. For 2021 school orders, there are some additional freight considerations in response to COVID-19 and limited air freight.
That said, sea freight is usually the better option for bulkier items such as formal school hats.
To guarantee back to school delivery for the first term of 2021, we need orders for approved designs placed before early October.
Our expert staff will assist with other cut-off dates depending on when you need delivery, so don’t hestitate to reach out.
