Who We Are
Welcome to Thinking Caps
A sister Company to Pocket Coach Academy, Thinking Caps was born out of the need for schools to have access to easy fundraising options. We shortly realized there was a need for headwear that celebrated the academics and spoke to students in those arenas. Thus Thinking Caps was born!
Our Story
Thinking Caps is more than just a hat company— we’re passionate advocates for education and community empowerment. Founded with the belief that learning should be celebrated in style, we specialize in creating academic-themed hats that inspire students, educators, and lifelong learners. From school mascots and graduation motifs to motivational quotes and subject-specific designs (like math, science, and literature), our hats turn everyday headwear into symbols of achievement and pride.
What sets us apart? Our commitment to high-quality embroidery, customizable options, and a unique fundraising model that gives back to schools, teams, clubs, and individuals. Every hat we make is designed to spark conversations, boost school spirit, and support meaningful causes.

Our Fundraising Program
At Thinking Caps, we believe in giving back. That’s why we’ve built a simple, high-impact fundraising program to support schools, clubs, teams, and verified individuals pursuing educational or community goals—like scholarships, sports fees, or program funding.
Here’s how it works:
