Herff Jones to Accommodate More Graduates With New Grad Cap Remix Collaboration

Herff Jones widens audience base with new expanded and inclusive product offering

INDIANAPOLIS, June 8, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Herff Jones, the achievement division of Varsity Brands and a leading provider of graduation and educational products and services, today announced a new collaboration with emerging graduation accessory brand Cap Creations to exclusively offer its Grad Cap Remix insert for scholastic and collegiate graduates nationwide.

The innovative Grad Cap Remix insert, which went viral on social media platforms earlier this year, is a 3-piece system that enables graduation caps to securely fit on students' heads. The inclusive product accommodates more graduates by allowing them to keep their hairstyles (curly/textured, bangs, etc.), avoid covering or smearing their makeup and avoid interfering with sensory disorders or cochlear implants.

"The Grad Cap Remix was created with the customer's needs in mind, and at Herff Jones, we're dedicated to elevating the student experience and celebrating major milestones, so the brand alignment was clear," said Ron Stoupa, President, Herff Jones. "We want all students to feel their best while they're being recognized for their important achievements, and we look forward to helping more graduates be their authentic selves as they celebrate this significant accomplishment."

Herff Jones is finding a new and innovative way to serve its customers by collaborating with an ingenious brand that is helping to revolutionize the graduation industry. Through the collaboration, Herff Jones students can receive a 15% discount to purchase their Grad Cap Remix for upcoming summer and winter 2023 graduations. Herff Jones sales representatives can opt-in to sell the product and receive a higher commission for participating. 

"We couldn't be happier to collaborate with a leading regalia supplier like Herff Jones and reach graduates on the national scale," said Rashawnda Wright, Grab Cap Remix Creator. "Grad Cap Remix has already impacted more students than we ever could have imagined and now we're ready to become a household name for graduates across the country."
