Gen 2

Gen 2 Cap Frame

Rated 4.95 out of 5 based on 20 customer ratings
(20 customer reviews)

$384.99

The GEN 2 from Hoop Tech is the next generation HTP style cap frame. Originally called The Dream Frame, the GEN 2 was redesigned to allow sewing closer to the bill than ever before. And it is the easiest cap frame that we have ever made to frame all styles of caps, even visors! It was specially designed to maximize the sewing field on the front two panels of a finished cap, while still maintaining registration. This cap frame is lighter, has backing holding clips, is easier to frame, and with the new bill retaining strap you can sew closer to the bill than ever before.

    Finally! I can do structured, unstructured, you name it. After debating whether to purchase or try some gimmick to embroider unstructured hats, boonies etc. I broke down and made the purchase. Well worth it in loss of headache alone. I have set aside my normal hat hoop and use only this now. It so easy and centering is no problem. Even seems to be smoother in the sew out on my Tajima.
