A metal patch on a Carhartt hat looks exactly like what it is: a serialized badge on heavy equipment. The CT105298 Rugged Professional™ Cap earns that comparison — FastDry® sweatband, Carhartt Force® odor control, thick cotton-poly-spandex twill that handles the weight of brushed stainless steel without puckering or shifting. The Carhartt “C” rides the side. The front carries a laser-cut stainless steel patch, rivet-mounted over full-grain black leather backing, your logo cut clean and bold in a format that doesn’t apologize for itself. For high-end construction firms, custom automotive shops, and any trade brand that wants their hat to feel like the most expensive thing in the truck cab.

Carhartt CT105298 Metal Patch Hat — Frequently Asked Questions
Why does a metal patch work so well on the Carhartt CT105298?
Hat Style
The combination reads as industrial — like a serialized badge on heavy equipment. The CT105298’s rugged twill fabric and workwear heritage create the right context for brushed stainless steel. It’s same “over-engineered, built to last” philosophy that Carhartt has stood behind for over 130 years.
Who is the CT105298 with a metal patch best suited for?
Hat Style
High-end construction firms, custom automotive shops, heavy equipment operators, and any trade brand that wants their merch to feel like equipment rather than a giveaway. The Carhartt name handles the workwear credibility; the stainless steel patch handles the premium positioning.
Can the CT105298 front panel support the weight of a metal patch?
Hat Construction
Yes. The thick cotton-poly twill front is one of the most structurally capable decoration surfaces. Metal patches are rivet-mounted, distributing weight evenly across the panel. The CT105298’s fabric handles that load — even with regular heavy use. The same Force® technology that keeps the hat performing also keeps it structurally sound.
What is the metal patch made of?
Decoration
100% brushed stainless steel, laser-cut to your logo and backed with full-grain black vegetable-tanned leather. Attached using rivets for a permanent, industrial finish that won’t loosen with wear. Stainless steel is highly resistant to rust, corrosion, and general wear — the most durable patch type we offer.
What logo style works best on a metal patch?
Decoration
Bold, simple, one-color designs with strong silhouettes. Metal patches are laser-cut into a stencil format — fine details, thin strokes, and small text are simplified during production. For trade and construction brands, clean icons and strong wordmarks deliver the sharpest result. Our patch style guide can help you decide.
Is the metal patch weather resistant enough for a work hat?
Decoration Care
Yes. Brushed stainless steel is highly resistant — it requires no special maintenance in outdoor environments. The rivet mounting keeps it secure through heavy daily use. Hand wash the hat and air dry; the metal patch needs no special care beyond keeping it out of prolonged submersion.
