How it works

Three simple moves.

An interchangeable sleeve goes on and off your snapback strap in three simple steps.

01 / SLIDE ON

SLIDE ON

Slide the sleeve over the female strap with seven adjustment holes.

02 / SNAP IN

SNAP IN

Align the original pegs with the female strap's adjustment holes, then press the closure together until the pegs snap into place.

03 / SWAP ANYTIME

SWAP ANYTIME

Remove the sleeve and replace it with another design.

Six sizes are numbered 0–5 by exposed pegs: size 0 means zero exposed pegs; size 5 means five exposed pegs.

Protection meets personal style

PROTECT YOUR STRAP. ELEVATE YOUR STYLE.

Your snapback strap takes a beating from everyday wear. SnapInk slides over the original plastic strap, adding a protective layer that helps reduce scratches, scuffs, and surface wear.

Change your look without changing your hat.

  • Everyday ProtectionHelps shield your original strap from scratches and scuffs.
  • Slide-On DesignSlides over the existing snapback strap. No permanent modifications required.
  • Swappable StyleSwitch designs whenever you want while keeping your favorite hat.
CUSTOMIZE YOUR SLEEVE
Make the space yours

Built for your next idea.

From a bold wordmark to a patch-inspired graphic, a SnapInk sleeve gives your artwork a place on the back of the hat.

Two ways to make it yours

Texture or direct print.

Partners can bring their own artwork, add embroidery, or create a design in SnapInk Studio for direct printing.

Embroidered patches

Apply embroidered patches to SnapInk sleeves with heat-activated adhesive. Embroidery is recommended for small, intricate artwork.

Hydbond is our recommended adhesive based on approximately one year of internal testing involving flexing, sweat, heat, cold and heavy wear.

Embroidery Production Sheet

Approved SnapInk pilot partners can download our embroidery production sheet to help prepare embroidered artwork for SnapInk sleeves. Use the sheet as a production reference for artwork sizing, placement, and layout.

Direct printing

Print customer designs directly onto the sleeve. Create a free preview in SnapInk Studio, then discuss production through the pilot program.
