Bulk Orders for Clubs & Events: Pricing, Turnaround & Branding Options for Texas Tech Hats
Whether you are organizing a Red Raider alumni golf tournament, outfitting the Texas Tech chess club, or planning a massive Greek life event, one thing is certain: everyone loves a good hat. But not just any hat—a hat that represents the 806 with pride.
At Projectt 806, we understand that ordering custom headwear for a large group can feel daunting. You have budget constraints, strict deadlines, and a dozen different opinions on style. That is why we have streamlined our bulk order process to make getting premium Texas Tech hats as easy as throwing a "Guns Up."
In this guide, we break down everything you need to know about bulk ordering—from choosing the right Red Raider hat style to navigating pricing and turnaround times.

Step 2: Customization & Branding
We know you want your Red Raider hat to be unique. While we carry officially licensed gear, our bulk program allows for specific customization to make the hat yours.
- Embroidery: High-density stitching for logos that pop.
- Patches: Leather or rubber patches for a premium, textured look.
- Side/Back Branding: Don't forget the real estate on the side! Adding an event date (e.g., "Homecoming 2025") or a sponsor's logo on the side of the cap adds significant value.
Note: All custom designs incorporating the Texas Tech logo must adhere to university licensing guidelines. Our team handles this compliance for you.
