More than merch. It’s an experience.
What is The Hat Lab?
The Hat Lab is a one-of-a-kind, on-site hat customization experience designed to make your brand unforgettable.
Here’s how it works:
- We set up at your event with hats, patches, and our live press station.
- Attendees pick their hat and custom patch.
- We heat press it live on the spot.
- They walk away with a custom hat repping YOUR brand.
It’s not retail. It’s not random patches.
It’s a branded merch experience. Powered by Romano Promo.
