UM Customs — Field Notes
The Cap Is The Canvas: How UM Customs Builds Headwear for Teams, Brands & Businesses
Every great branded cap starts with the same thing: a blank built well enough to be worth decorating. Here's how we build that canvas — and what goes into a UM Customs order from first sketch to final delivery.



Why The Canvas Matters More Than The Logo
Most businesses ordering custom caps focus entirely on the design — the logo placement, the colours, the patch. Almost none of them ask what the cap itself is actually made of. That's backwards. A logo embroidered onto a poorly built panel still looks cheap, no matter how good the artwork is. The construction underneath is what determines whether your cap holds its shape for two years or two months.
"We've been building the canvas since 2013. UM Customs exists so businesses don't have to choose between good design and good construction."
Our Stock Builds
Every UM Customs order starts from one of our core constructions — each built around a specific use case, the same way performance gear is engineered for its sport. These are the same panel and brim builds used across our own retail line, now available as a base for your custom run.
Available Colourways — UMC-01
From Sketch To Shipment


Every order moves through the same four stages, regardless of size: inquiry and build selection, a design consultation to lock in materials and customization, a physical sample for sign-off, and finally bulk production on a confirmed timeline. The sample stage isn't optional — it's the only way to guarantee the cap you approve is the cap your full order actually delivers.

Time is an illusion, and Urban Monkey continues to redefine how we perceive it. After the overwhelming success of our first-ever Loop watch collection, which sold out in just 40 minutes, we’re back with something even more refined introducing LOOP_INBTWN, a collector’s edition timepiece crafted in stainless steel, available in two stunning variants: Inbtwn // Silver and Inbtwn // Black.
A Legacy Reinvented
LOOP marked Urban Monkey’s first venture into experimental accessories a groundbreaking analog-digital watch released in four variants: Moon, Astro, Origin, and Intrglctc.
Designed as a collectible art piece, LOOP carried profound messages like “Keep Moving Forward,” “Be Here Now,” and “Don’t Let Time Govern You.” This philosophy resonated deeply with our community, pushing the boundaries of product design and storytelling in India.
Now, we take that vision even further with LOOP_INBTWN.
The Evolution: LOOP_INBTWN

The second edition of LOOP re-emerges in a stainless steel body, fusing past and future to emphasize the only moment that truly exists, the PRESENT.
Created by URBNMNKY-SYSTMS, Urban Monkey’s division for experimental lifestyle accessories, LOOP_INBTWN is more than a watch; it’s a statement piece designed for collectors, visionaries, and those who see time as an ornament rather than a constraint.
The Variants
INBTWN // SILVER

A tribute to the infinite interplay of time, the INBTWN // SILVER is a polished stainless steel timepiece that speaks to those who embrace clarity and precision.
This variant is all about balance. The lustrous silver finish gives it a modern yet classic aesthetic, offering a sleek reflection of both past elegance and futuristic minimalism.
The clean analog-digital interface is framed by a custom-designed steel body that showcases Urban Monkey’s commitment to innovation and detail.
The parametric design elements create a sense of movement even when the watch is still. It feels alive constantly evolving, much like the concept of time itself.
Whether you’re pairing it with streetwear or a more refined fit, INBTWN // SILVER is a versatile piece that adapts to your mood and message.
On the wrist, it feels substantial yet seamless. A conversation starter. A reminder to live in the moment. The engraved inner bezel reads: "Live INBTWN" a subtle nudge to step away from rigid timelines and embrace the fluidity of now.
INBTWN // BLACK

Bold, timeless, and enigmatic. This variant embodies the contrast of time’s duality, rendered in deep black stainless steel with a futuristic edge.
Rendered in deep matte black stainless steel, this variant offers a stark yet elegant silhouette that draws inspiration from the shadows between seconds. Its design is minimal but packed with intention.
The blacked-out display and subtle illumination create a seamless visual language that feels high-tech and almost meditative.
Where Silver leans into clarity, Black celebrates mystery. It’s the future, wrapped in a form that defies trends. The futuristic edge is heightened by the watch's modular form panels, textures, and materials layered together like an architectural study of time.
This piece is engineered for those who don’t follow the clock, but rather move to their own rhythm. It doesn't shout; it whispers power. It's a perfect match for a monochrome aesthetic or to provide a grounding contrast to bolder outfits.
INBTWN // BLACK reminds you that time is personal. That moments of stillness and motion exist side by side. That presence isn't passive it's a form of strength.
More Than Just a Timepiece
LOOP_INBTWN isn’t just a watch, it’s an art piece, a philosophy, and a collectible that challenges traditional timekeeping. This release is an invitation to redefine your relationship with time and embrace the limitless space between binaries.
With LOOP_INBTWN, Urban Monkey once again pushes the boundary of what a product can be. It’s not about keeping up with time. It’s about reframing it.

Loop Care Guide
Proper care of your LOOP watch is essential to ensure that it performs at its best and maintains its good looks. Remember that your watch is in close contact with your skin, much like a piece of cloth, and should be kept clean and well-maintained.
Maintaining your LOOP watch is crucial for it to function properly and maintain its appearance. Here are some tips to keep your watch in top condition:
- Clean your watch regularly by wiping it with a cloth to remove dirt, sweat, and other contaminants.
- While the LOOP watch is splash-resistant, it should not be submerged in water or used for swimming or sauna. If your watch comes into contact with seawater or mud, rinse it off with clean water and dry it with a soft cloth.
- Avoid exposing your watch to extreme temperatures, such as leaving it on a car dashboard or near a heater. High temperatures can cause problems with the watch's performance and the LCD display. Direct sunlight can also cause discoloration.
- Keep your watch away from chemicals such as thinner, gasoline, solvents, oils, and fats. These substances can damage the resin case, resin band, leather, and other parts of the watch.
- When not in use for an extended period of time, store your watch in a cool, dry place. Wipe it clean of all dirt, sweat, and moisture before storing it. Avoid strong rubbing of the printed area on the band to prevent discoloration.
- Be sure to handle your watch gently and avoid rough treatment, such as dropping it or subjecting it to strong impacts.
- Long-Lasting - The high-performance nylon belts are long-lasting. Use it daily through the roughest phase, and still, it is durable for a long time.
- If you notice any damage or malfunction with your watch, such as a cracked case or a broken band, have it repaired as soon as possible to prevent further damage.
- To keep your watch looking its best, consider having it professionally serviced every few years. This can include cleaning and lubricating the movement, replacing any worn or damaged parts, and adjusting the timekeeping.
- If your watch has a leather band, take care to keep it conditioned and avoid getting it wet. When not wearing the watch, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the leather from drying out or fading.
- Consider using a watch winder to keep your automatic watch running when not in use. A watch winder is a device that rotates the watch periodically to mimic the natural motion of the wearer's wrist and keep the movement wound. This can help prevent the watch from stopping and ensure it is ready to wear when you need it.
By following these care guidelines, you can help ensure that your LOOP watch continues to function well and look its best for years to come.

Krump: A Legacy of Movement, Culture, and Growth
Krumpact Is more than just an event; it is a movement, a heartbeat of India’s Krump community. A National Krump event, Krumpact provides an unparalleled platform for dancers across the country to learn, connect, and represent themselves in the presence of the world's most influential figures in Krump from creators to OGs and pioneers. Since its inception in 2017, Krumpact has grown into one of the most significant Krump dance events in India, inspiring and shaping the Indian Krump movement.
The Vision Behind Krumpact

Krumpact was born from the shared vision of Ugle Fate (the pioneer of the Russian Krump Movement) and Srishti Poojari, aka Princess Ugly Fate (the first female Krumper in India).
Their dream was to create a space where dancers could immerse themselves in Krump's raw, powerful culture. In 2017, they launched a five-day event that combined conferences, workshops, battles, and community-building sessions. Every subsequent edition has only elevated its quality and impact, making Krumpact a cornerstone of the Indian Krump scene.
What Makes Krump Special?

At its core, Krumpact is about community and growth. Participants experience the culture not just through movement but also through intimate conversations with faculty.
Conferences provide insights into Krump’s history and philosophy, while workshops and sessions allow dancers to develop skills, share ideas, and forge connections. Battles and events give participants the space to represent themselves and showcase their talent in an electrifying environment.
The carefully curated lineup of international teachers from creators like Big Mijo to other global legends has been a highlight of Krumpact. These pioneers bring authentic knowledge and diverse perspectives, helping to reshape the Indian Krump community's mindset and approach.
Milestones of Krumpact

One of Krumpact’s most unforgettable moments was hosting Big Mijo, the creator of Krump. Sharing a room and exchanging energy with the very person who gave life to this art form was nothing short of a blessing for the Indian Krump community. It symbolized how far Krumpact had come and the transformative impact it continues to have on dancers across the nation.
What is Krump?: More Than a Dance
To understand Krump, one must first understand Krump itself. Born in the streets of South Central Los Angeles, Krump evolved from Clowning, a dance style pioneered by Tommy the Clown in the early 1990s.
While Clowning brought joy and positivity to communities plagued by violence, Krump became its raw, emotional offshoot a form of expression for those who sought to channel their pain, anger, and experiences into movement.
For many dancers, Krump is more than just a dance; it is survival, therapy, and freedom. It’s a space to feel safe, to release, and to transform. What may seem aggressive to an outsider is, in truth, an expression of resilience and unity.
Krumpact's Influence on the Indian Krump Movement
Krumpact has been instrumental in defining and elevating the Indian Krump scene. By setting international standards, it has bridged the gap between India and the global Krump community. The event has fostered a mindset shift encouraging dancers to explore art with authenticity, passion, and professionalism.
With its holistic approach, including top-tier setups, international DJs, and immersive workshops, Krumpact creates an unforgettable atmosphere that leaves participants inspired to grow and return stronger.
The Future of Krumpact
Krumpact is not just an event; it’s a foundation, a movement that has laid the groundwork for the Indian Krump community. But the journey is far from over.
The team envisions building even bigger platforms, creating opportunities for Krumpers to shine in entertainment, fashion, and other industries. With every step forward, Krumpact continues to push boundaries, set new standards, and inspire the next generation of dancers.
A Heartfelt Tribute
Krumpact isn’t just about dance battles or workshops. It’s about the stories shared, the friendships formed, and the energy exchanged. It’s about a community that rises together, finding strength and expression in every move. It’s about giving Indian dancers a chance to stand on the global stage, proud of their roots and ready to represent their art.
Krumpact isn’t just an event; it’s a legacy. A legacy that promises to grow, evolve, and continue shaping the future of Krump in India.
