Lightweight polyester takes crisp flat embroidery, and 3D puff works well for short block lettering on the front panel. We also apply leather, woven or rubber patches and direct-to-film printing when the artwork calls for it, all under one roof in Houston.

Why Buyers Pick It
Sun protection is a spec, not a feeling, and the 225 has one you can put in writing: UPF 35. That matters for crews working outdoors all day and for organizations that answer to a safety officer. The lightly structured low-profile crown still looks like a casual dad cap rather than technical gear, the hook-and-loop backstrap adjusts faster than a snap when someone is wearing gloves, and sixteen colorways cover both department color-coding and a retail rack.

Headwear runs start at a 12-piece minimum and volume pricing tiers open at 24 pieces.

What is the minimum order on the Richardson 225?
The Richardson 225 has a 12-piece minimum. Volume pricing tiers begin at 24 pieces, and you can mix colorways or add other headwear styles to reach a tier as long as the decoration stays the same.
Does the Richardson 225 offer sun protection?
Yes. The Richardson 225 Casual Performance Lite carries a UPF 35 rating, which is why it is used for outdoor crews and sunny-day events. Its Stay-Dri moisture management in the crown and sweatband also wicks sweat away during wear.
What closure and sizing does the Richardson 225 use?
The Richardson 225 uses a hook-and-loop adjustable backstrap and is made in one adult size, OSFM. Because it is adjustable and one size, there is no size split to plan when ordering.
Do you keep files on hand for reorders?
Yes. Wholesale Caps and Embroidery keeps your digitized embroidery file and artwork after the first 225 order, so reorders skip setup and start production immediately.
Can I use one logo across several styles?
Yes. The same logo can be decorated on the 225 and on other headwear styles, and those quantities combine toward a volume pricing tier when the decoration is unchanged.
How long does a Richardson 225 order take?
Standard turnaround is 7–10 business days from the date you approve the free digital mockup. Rush production is available on request, and most orders ship free ground.
