DOES RICHARDSON OFFER FREE SHIPPING?
We don’t offer free shipping—but for a good reason. Instead of building shipping costs into our pricing, we focus on keeping product prices as low as possible. With distribution centers and wholesale partners across the country, we work to minimize delivery times and costs wherever we can. It’s all part of how we deliver value without cutting corners.
CAN I WASH MY RICHARDSON CAP?
Yes—carefully. Most Richardson caps can be spot cleaned using mild detergent and a soft cloth or sponge. To help preserve the shape and fit, we don’t recommend machine washing or drying. For caps that get a lot of wear, a gentle hand wash is best. Always air dry your cap by shaping it and letting it sit at room temperature. That way, it stays ready for the next adventure.
WHY IS THERE A DIFFERENCE IN COLOR FROM ONE CAP TO THE NEXT?
We work hard to ensure color accuracy and consistency, but our caps are handmade and slight color variations are to be expected. Color variations can occur in the dyeing process from batch to batch. We cannot guarantee that fill-in orders will match the previous cap exactly.
WHY DOES ONE CAP FIT DIFFERENTLY THAN ANOTHER?
We aim for consistency across every cap we make, holding all our manufacturing partners to the same high standards. But because textile manufacturing involves a lot of hands-on craftsmanship, small differences in fit can happen from one factory to another. It’s a natural part of the process—and something we work hard to minimize without compromising the quality or feel of our caps.
