This cap hat mockup is a quick way to show a side mark without a photo shoot.
Sports teams and streetwear labels tend to get the most out of files like this. Quick tip: caps show logos small and curved; a simplified version of the mark reads much better than the full logo.
It’s also useful before a print run, to check how large the design should really be on the garment. Add a hoodie or sweatshirt shot next to it and you have a basic collection page.
Mockupful created this one and hosts the download on their own site, so you always get the latest version straight from the source.

- Decide where the design sits on the item and size your art for that spot.
- In the Layers panel, find the layer with the small smart object icon and double-click it.
- Drop your artwork in, fit it to the canvas, save and close. The mockup updates by itself.
- Lower the print opacity a touch if it looks too sharp on the folds.

One more thing: place the design as a flat PNG with a transparent background, then let the fabric displacement do the folds.
