Here’s a two bucket hat mockup that works well for a side mark, an embroidered logo and similar projects.

Merch shops 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.

Selling merch online without photos of every colour is hard; a good apparel mockup fills that gap until the samples arrive. Add a hoodie or sweatshirt shot next to it and you have a basic collection page.

The file is made by Mr.Mockup. The download button takes you to their page, where you get the original file and the licence details.

Editable options in the Two Bucket Hat Mockup PSD

Everything below is on its own layer:

  • Print design, placed through the smart object
  • Shadows and highlights
  • Fabric colour

How to use the Two Bucket Hat Mockup

  1. Prepare the graphic flat, without shadows or fake texture. The mockup adds those.
  2. Open the file in Photoshop and double-click the smart object thumbnail in the Layers panel.
  3. Drop your artwork in, fit it to the canvas, save and close. The mockup updates by itself.
  4. Export a full-size image for your portfolio and a smaller one for social media.

Another tip: if the print looks too sharp, a very slight blur (0.3 px) makes it sit into the fabric.

Where the Two Bucket Hat Mockup works best

  • Present a small patch design in a client proposal or brand guide.
  • Use it as the cover image for a side mark in your portfolio.
  • Share an embroidered logo on Instagram, Behance or Dribbble with a real-looking preview.

Questions about this mockup

What licence does it come with?

It's free to download, but the licence belongs to Mr.Mockup. Check their page: it states whether commercial use is allowed and if attribution is needed.

How do I put my artwork on the cap?

Find the smart object layer (it has a small icon on its thumbnail), double-click it, place your design, then save and close that tab.

Which Photoshop version do I need?

A recent Photoshop CC version is best. Older versions can open the file but sometimes have trouble with smart objects and effects.

Can I change the fabric colour?

Almost every apparel mockup has a colour fill or adjustment layer for the garment. Double-click its thumbnail and pick your colour.
