Port Authority C812 - Flexfit Mesh Back Cap - True Navy / White
Selected Color: True Navy / White14 colors
Choose Size
Description
The Port Authority C812 is a Flexfit mesh back cap with a structured front panel and stretch-fit construction. The closed-back mesh panels provide airflow while the structured front gives embroidery and DTF transfers a flat, stable surface for logo placement. Available in S/M and L/XL with two-tone colorways featuring contrast mesh and underbill trim.
Embroidery is the primary decoration method on the structured front panel. The Flexfit stretch band eliminates the snapback or velcro closure, giving the cap a clean finished look. DTF transfers bond to the front panel for full-color artwork. Screen printing with plastisol works on the flat structured front. Patches (woven, leather, PVC) sew onto the structured front for premium brand programs.

Fabric Blend by Color Group
Not all colorways share the same fabric composition. Check the blend before ordering for decoration jobs where substrate matters.
| Color Group | Blend | Print Consideration |
|---|---|---|
| Heather front / contrast mesh (Heather Gray/White, Heather Gray/Black) | Cotton/poly heather front, poly mesh back | Heather front panel shows marled texture through prints. Embroidery recommended for cleanest logo reproduction. |
| Solid front / contrast or matching mesh (Black/White, True Navy/White, etc.) | Cotton/poly solid front, poly mesh back | Solid front panel for clean screen print and DTF. Dark colors need white underbase for plastisol. |
