The Richardson 112 is a five-panel snapback trucker cap with a structured foam front, breathable mesh back panels, and an adjustable plastic snap closure that fits most adult head sizes. Businesses order the 112 decorated with their logo — via embroidery, patches, or DTF print on the front panel — for team gear, retail merch, trade show giveaways, and customer swag. At Wholesale Caps and Embroidery, we've decorated Richardson 112 caps in-house at our Houston facility since 1979, with a free digital proof on every order before production starts.
The 112 is the best-selling trucker cap style we run, and it's easy to see why: the foam front panel holds a crisp, raised look for flat embroidery and 3D puff embroidery, and it's wide enough for a full leather or woven patch if you want a rugged, retail-ready logo. Prefer a photo-real or gradient design instead? DTF heat-transfer print handles that on the front panel too. Every 112 style ships in 60+ colorways, and you can browse them all: the classic 112, full-foam-front 112FP, 112FPR retro trucker, 112PFP printed foam front, 112P, camo 112FPC, mesh-back 112PM, recycled 112RE, performance 112PT, 112LN lined trucker, and the low-profile 112PL R-Flex.
Businesses choose the 112 for uniforms, brand giveaways, retail racks, and event merch because the structured front panel gives a logo room to stand out — whether that's a bold 3D puff mark, a stitched-on leather patch, or clean single-needle text. The mesh back panels keep it comfortable for outdoor crews and long shifts, and the snapback closure means one size fits nearly everyone on your team, so you're not guessing at sizing across a bulk order. We'll walk you through decoration options during a free consultation so the finished cap matches your logo and budget.
Every 112 order starts with a free digital proof for your approval before anything goes into production. Once you sign off, decorated caps run on a standard 7–10 business day turnaround (rush available) and ship free. Prefer your 112 caps blank so your own shop can decorate them? We can do that too — blank caps require a 12-piece minimum per color, and shipping charges apply, since blank orders don't qualify for our free-shipping-on-decorated-orders policy.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Richardson 112?
The Richardson 112 is a five-panel snapback trucker cap with a structured foam front panel, breathable mesh back panels, and an adjustable plastic snap closure. At Wholesale Caps and Embroidery, we decorate 112 caps in-house at our Houston facility with your logo via embroidery, patches, or DTF print, and every order gets a free digital proof before production.
What decoration methods are available on the Richardson 112, and where?
The front panel is the most flexible location: it supports flat embroidery, 3D puff embroidery, leather patches, woven patches, rubber patches, and DTF heat-transfer print. The side and back panels are embroidery-only — those areas are too small and curved for patches, puff, or DTF. Most customers put their main logo on the front and a website, hashtag, or small mark on the side or back.
What is the minimum order for the Richardson 112?
Decorated 112 caps require a 12-piece minimum total, and you can mix colors to get there — for example, 6 black and 6 navy both counts toward your 12. Blank (undecorated) 112 caps are also available, but they require a 12-piece minimum per color, since blank orders aren't mixable, and shipping charges apply to blank orders instead of free shipping.
Do you keep my artwork on file for reorders?
Yes. Once your logo is digitized for embroidery or set up for patches or DTF print, we keep the file on hand, so reorders skip the setup step and ship within our standard 7–10 business day production time.
Can I order multiple Richardson 112 styles or colors with the same logo?
Yes. The same logo file can be applied across any of the 112 variants — the classic 112, 112FP, 112FPR, 112PFP, 112P, 112FPC, 112PM, 112RE, 112PT, 112LN, and 112PL R-Flex — as well as across colors, and all of it counts toward your 12-piece minimum.
Do you offer volume pricing on the Richardson 112?
Yes. Per-cap pricing drops as order quantity increases, so larger team, uniform, and retail orders get better unit pricing. Tell us your target quantity and decoration method during your quote and we'll build out the pricing tiers.
What is your turnaround time on Richardson 112 orders?
Standard production is 7–10 business days after you approve your free digital proof, with rush production available for tighter deadlines. Decorated orders ship free; shipping charges apply to blank orders.
How do I wash or clean a Richardson 112 hat?
Spot-clean a Richardson 112 with a damp cloth and mild soap rather than machine washing — the structured foam front can lose its shape in a washer or dryer. Wipe the front panel gently, rinse with a clean damp cloth, and let the cap air-dry on a rounded surface (like a bowl or cap form) to help it keep its curve.
What is the difference between the Richardson 112 and the Richardson 115?
Both are five-panel snapback trucker caps, but the 112 has a mid-profile foam front panel while the 115 sits slightly lower with a low-profile, unstructured-leaning front. The 112 is the more popular choice for a bold, structured logo placement; the 115 gives a flatter, more relaxed look. We decorate both, but the 112 is our best seller.
