Richardson 172 Hats

Richardson 172 Hats

Richardson 172 Hats present a modern washed twill construction with a relaxed, lifestyle-friendly aesthetic - bringing the worn-in, authentically casual look of vintage headwear to a quality-constructed cap that holds up to daily wear. The go-to Richardson style for brands targeting outdoor and lifestyle markets.

The 172 positions itself in the growing market for caps that feel genuine and considered rather than corporate and mass-produced. The washed twill construction creates that sought-after vintage feel - softer fabric, a relaxed crown that drapes naturally, subtle tonal variation in the color that reads as earned rather than manufactured. For brands in food and beverage, agriculture, outdoor recreation, and artisan manufacturing, it's an aesthetic that resonates strongly with their audiences.

About wholesalehats.com

Since its founding, wholesalehats.com has become a go-to destination for buyers who need quality headwear at volume pricing. The combination of an extensive blank inventory spanning every major headwear brand, in-house embroidery capabilities, and factory-direct pricing structures makes it the practical choice for any organization sourcing bulk caps at scale.

wholesalehats.com supplies Richardson 172 hats in bulk at competitive US wholesale prices. Richardson 172 hats are available as blank products or can be finished with high-quality custom embroidery on request, making them suitable for branding, promotions, and resale.

Richardson hats are produced by Richardson Sports, a US-based headwear manufacturer with decades of experience supplying caps built for durability, consistent sizing, and reliable performance.

Founded in 1970, Richardson has built a strong reputation in team sports, promotional apparel, and corporate merchandising. The brand is especially recognized for combining functional performance fabrics with classic cap silhouettes, making its products suitable for everyday wear, athletic use, and branded uniforms.

Richardson hats are widely used by sports teams, outdoor brands, schools, and businesses that require reliable headwear capable of holding up to repeated wear and embroidery. Over time, models such as the Richardson 112 and performance-focused lines like the Richardson hats 172 Pulse Sportmesh series have become staples in the wholesale and custom headwear market due to their balance of comfort, breathability, and structure.

Richardson 172 hats are performance-driven fitted trucker caps designed with Sportmesh fabric for enhanced airflow, moisture management, and all-day comfort.

This line is commonly used for athletic teams, outdoor events, and brands that prioritize breathability without sacrificing structure.

Richardson 172 series are fitted trucker caps, meaning they use fixed-size ranges instead of adjustable closures such as snapbacks or strapbacks. Here are the size options available:

• XS / SM: fits head sizes from 6 5/8" to 7"

• SM / MD: fits head sizes from 7" to 7 1/4"

• LG / XL: fits head sizes from 7 3/8" to 7 5/8"

Because these hats do not feature adjustable closures, selecting the correct fitted size range is essential. This is particularly important for team orders, corporate uniforms, and bulk custom embroidery, where a consistent fit and appearance across all wearers is required.

For larger wholesale orders, it is recommended to confirm size distribution in advance to avoid fit issues after production.

Richardson 172 hats are available in a broad range of solid and multi-panel color configurations, designed to support clear branding and consistent visual presentation.

color options typically include:

• Core, neutral tones such as Black, White, Navy, Red, and Gray

• Contrasting panel combinations are used in tri-color designs for added visual definition

• Durable performance colors formulated to maintain appearance through regular wear

Rather than decorative or novelty patterns, the Richardson 172 range prioritizes clean, athletic color blocking, making these hats well-suited for embroidery, team identification, and corporate branding.

Because color availability may vary by style and stock, all current options can be viewed directly on the individual product pages.

Wholesale pricing for Richardson 172 hats is influenced by multiple variables related to product configuration, customization requirements, and fulfillment conditions. These factors allow pricing to scale appropriately for different use cases, from blank bulk orders to fully branded programs.
