Custom Team Beanies and Scarves: Design Ideas

October 4, 2026

A coordinated team beanie and scarf can share the same colors while using different logo layouts. Put the compact symbol where it remains visible on the beanie cuff, and use the scarf's longer shape for a readable team name. These photo references from the CHD archive show how a black, green and white palette works across both pieces.

Give the cuff logo its own space

The beanie uses two distinct branding areas. Large white lettering runs across the upper band, while a smaller emblem sits on the folded cuff. The black cuff provides a simple background for the emblem, and the green stripes connect it to the rest of the design.

For your own brief, decide which element is most useful at a small scale. A compact club symbol may suit the cuff, while a longer wordmark needs a wider area. Submit the original artwork for both elements so their relative size can be checked on the proof.

Use the scarf length for the full name

Green and black football scarves with contrasting white block lettering — Scarf reference: large white letters are outlined against green and black areas. The same color palette is arranged differently across the long fabric panel.

A scarf offers a long horizontal surface that a beanie does not. In this reference, the prominent lettering carries across the fabric, with a smaller line of text above it. The color blocks and contrasting outlines help separate those lines visually.

Review the scarf both laid flat and folded as it would be worn. A centered logo can disappear inside a fold, and a long word can be divided between the hanging ends. Show the intended reading direction and any artwork on the reverse in the design brief. Do not assume the second side repeats the first.

Coordinate the pom and stripes

Red and black pom beanies showing knitted lettering and contrasting white stripes — Separate color reference: red-and-black poms repeat the colors in the knitted bands, with narrow white stripes separating the darker areas.

The red-and-black reference demonstrates another way to repeat a limited palette. The pom mixes the two main colors, the broad band carries lettering, and the narrow white lines provide an accent. A club can use this kind of color relationship to connect several accessories without putting the same large graphic on every surface.

Choose the main color, supporting color and accent in the same brief. Photographs can help explain the direction, but lighting and screens can change the appearance of a shade. Use an agreed color reference when an exact match matters.

What should a team accessory brief include?

The beanie and scarf references you want to discuss.
The exact team name and separate logo files.
Beanie cuff artwork, upper-band lettering and preferred pom colors.
Scarf text, reading direction and artwork for each requested side.
Quantities for each item, requested fit or dimensions, delivery destination and date needed.

Request confirmation of material composition, dimensions, decoration method, minimum order and production timing for the proposed items. The archive photos illustrate appearances; current availability and the order specification are confirmed with CHD.

Questions about matching team accessories

Should the beanie and scarf use identical artwork?

They can share a symbol and colors, while using layouts that suit each shape. Check the cuff separately from the scarf's long lettering area.

Does a pom color determine the material?

No. Appearance alone does not establish yarn composition, lining or care instructions. Ask for the specifications of the proposed item.

Can we send a photo as the design reference?

Yes. Identify the features you like, then include your own approved logo and wording so CHD can discuss an appropriate design.
