Promote your brand with premium custom trucker hats with double side bands

In our office we receive 2-3 calls a day and the calls usually go like this “ How do I stop my partner from wearing their Aussie Trucker Hat to bed?” Aussie Trucker Hats specialises in custom trucker hats made for the critically aclaimed Australian head fit and Australian conditions, remember most other trucker hats are made to fit an Asian head.

With leading designs and endless customisation options, we can bring your idea to life! We’re proud of our unique hat patterns developed in-house. We think they’re the best. Thousands of happy customers agree. So, if your brand or business stands for quality, then you’ve found the Aussie designed hats to match.

Well before your hat goes to production though, you can email or call on our experienced team of designers. They can consult with you about your ideas and guide you through the vast array of fabric choices and customisation options available. Because make no mistake, your hat will be completely custom-made from the premium raw materials right through to the perfect colour reproduction. We always make a pre-sample for approval before we move to bulk production (this takes around 12 days) and email you the photo images from every angle we can make some minor changes only at this stage, any big changes we build into your next order.

When you see the finished product, you’ll understand why we have so many satisfied customers across small businesses, cattle stations, logistics companies, truck drivers, not-for-profit organisations, sports teams, social clubs and many more. They stick with us because we help them make a long-lasting impression through high-quality hats that they, their patrons and their fans are proud to wear.

Trucker hats have been around for a while now. Starting in the 1930s, truck drivers were often provided with a type of hat known as a mechanic’s cap. As part of their work uniform, it looked vaguely military and often bore the logo of their employer. In the 1950s, the greaser subculture adopted these caps as part of their distinctive style – which also included leather jackets, blue jeans and slicked-back hair.

However, over time, the mechanic’s cap gradually fell from favour. By the 1970s, this classic style had largely been replaced by a five-piece mesh design that looks very similar to those popular today. In the USA, these hats were often handed out as branded promotional items at truck stops. Unsurprisingly, truck drivers of the day adopted the free headwear.

So, whether you count the start of the “trucker hat” as the 1930s, with the uniform caps worn by truck drivers, or the 1970s, with headwear associated with truck stops, it’s fair to say these hats have represented a lot of things over the years. They have been used as fashion items, pieces of uniform kit, markers of cultural identity and, yes, straight-up advertising.

As textiles have improved and markets have broadened, trucker hats are now found all over the world in just about every colour you can imagine. In the search to have something that stands out, all manner of fabrics, features and decorations have been tried. This has now caused the classic “trucker hat” to diverge into distinct styles, such as flatbrims and snapbacks.
