CapBuilder is the Shopify hat builder from the Patch Crafters family. Your customers pick the cap, upload their logo, shape the leather patch and watch the price update live — then check out with an order that's ready to produce.
No Shopify store yet? Here's how to start ↓
Two independent businesses, one team behind them. Use either one on its own — they just work better together.
Supplies what you make with. Full-grain leather, leatherette, acrylic, heat-activated adhesive, custom patches and automatic hat presses.
Powers how you sell. A live hat builder inside your Shopify store, so customers design the hat themselves and the order arrives production-ready.
Upload your logo, pick the shape, the leather and the stitching, watch the wholesale price drop as the quantity goes up. That's the experience on our Custom Leather Patches page — now picture it with full hats, in your store, with your prices.
CapBuilder takes the order. Patch Crafters helps you make it.
Hat model, colors, logo, patch shape, leather and stitching — with a live preview.
The design image and every option come attached to the Shopify order. No guessing.
Cut and engrave your own from our leather — or let us make custom patches for you.
Our heat-activated adhesive and the DuoForge automatic press give you a clean, lasting finish.
Models, colors, leathers and prices are set up in the CapBuilder dashboard. No developer needed.
The hat redraws with every choice, so customers approve the look before they pay.
Turns a blurry screenshot into leather-ready artwork — or creates a logo from a sentence.
Classic patch shapes, or a patch that follows the outline of the logo.
Volume tiers recalculate the unit price the moment the quantity changes. You set the tiers.
30 in camo, 30 in navy: each color gets its own quantity in the same order.
The product image in the cart becomes the exact design your customer created.
CapBuilder runs inside a Shopify store. If you sell your hats through DMs, Facebook or a marketplace today, this is the way in.
Pick a plan on Shopify and add your hats.
Free for 7 days from the Shopify App Store.
Turn on the app embed in your theme and set up your cap menu in the dashboard. No code.
Affiliate link: we may earn a referral fee from Shopify if you sign up through it. Your price stays the same.
CapBuilder is its own Shopify app, built by the same team behind Patch Crafters. Patch Crafters is its official supply partner — the two are designed to work together, but each stands on its own.
CapBuilder runs inside Shopify, so you need a Shopify store first. Start your Shopify store, then come back and install CapBuilder. It's free for 7 days.

No. CapBuilder works with any supplier and any production setup. We just think our leather, adhesive and presses make the finished hat better.
No. You switch it on in your theme (App embeds) and set up hat models, colors, leathers, shapes and prices in the CapBuilder dashboard.
Caps first: model, colors, logo, text, patch shape, leather, stitching, position and extra side or back patches. The same builder can also run beanies, straw hats, koozies, tumblers and patch-only products.
One plan at $49.90/month with a 7-day free trial, plus a small usage fee per customized product in an order. Current pricing is always on the Shopify App Store.
The CapBuilder team helps you get started — reach them at capbuilder.app.
Give your customers a builder they'll actually enjoy, and spend your time making hats instead of mockups.
