New Dad Hats

"Dad Est. [year]" is already a configurable product on Etsy, sold by multiple sellers as the exact phrase typed into search, and "Promoted to Daddy" sells the same way across eBay, Walmart, and TeePublic, usually paired with a baby-shower or pregnancy-announcement framing. Both proven phrases anchor this collection as flags rather than jokes nobody searches for. The rest of the set plays the real, well-documented new-dad arc: car seat installation is covered by NPR as a genuine safety topic and by a viral parody video as a comic one, which is exactly the overconfidence this collection's bits lean on, from one baby book finished to a tracked diaper-change personal best. No live collection covers the expecting or first-time window; Divorced Dad Humor Hats sits at the opposite end of fatherhood, post-split and wry rather than pre-birth and optimistic, so this fills real open ground between a baby registry and a birth announcement. Every design is custom embroidered on an unstructured dad hat. Claim one for the nursery, or hand it to the dad who just found out car seats don't install themselves.
