Why It Beats the Rest
Other trucker hats often miss one of the marks—either they don’t hold their shape, feel uncomfortable after a few hours, or the patch starts peeling after a season. The Richardson 112, paired with Outer Wings’ sewn leather patches, solves all of that.
– Shape-retaining build means it always looks good
– Snapback design works for most head sizes
– Leather patches age beautifully with a natural patina
