I went through the caps thing with a couple of clubs who insisted on idiotproof washable caps.
The only brand that I could find was Champion Sys. IMHO they’r aren’t a patch on Apis ... but it’s subjective. They’re kinda shapeless, soft polyester rather than cotton. They are light, good in hot weather or hard training and dry really quick. They’re ok in the rain ... a bit floppy. The brim still distorts over time with washing machine heat but doesn’t crack.
The company also had real trouble (they completely failed) working to Pantone colours. The price was pretty good and the minimum order is a fraction of what Apis require.
