Approve the sample against the brief
Compare the sample with the approved artwork, hat style, requested colors, placement, and decoration method. Record any difference rather than relying on memory or a verbal assumption.
Check the visible details
Review logo edges, thread or print coverage, patch or label position, trims, and the overall appearance from a normal viewing distance. Note which observations are required changes and which are preferences.
Confirm the order specification
Once the sample is acceptable, restate the style, materials, colors, logo treatment, trims, packaging, and quantity in one approval record. Items that are still unknown should remain marked for confirmation.
Keep the quantity rule explicit
Eligible custom programs can start at 50 pieces; final MOQ must be confirmed against style, materials, colors, logo treatment, trims, and packaging. Do not treat the starting quantity as a universal promise for every project.
Approval checklist
Save the approved artwork and sample reference, record the approver and date, list remaining questions, and attach the final specification to the bulk-order request. This creates a traceable handoff without adding facts that were not reviewed.
