When it comes to hats, Richardson seems to be the industry standard. All of our customers always say “only the Richardsons fit my head “Or I know Richardson hats are the best quality” but is this actually true or is it just great marketing telling them so? We sell a lot of hats here at Shirt.co and we’re here to tell you that there is a better option out ther when it comes to hats.
Let’s start with giving Richardson hats the credit they deserve. Richardson has been around for a while and they definitely are the leader when it comes bulk blank headwear. But recently new headwear companies have emerged that are giving Richardson hats a run for their money.
Let’s Start with Pacific Headwear. A lot of people may not know that but the founder of Pacific Headwear was actually a founding partner of Richardson Headwear before they started Pacific Headwear. Now, we’re not sure exactly what happened between the founders but we are certain that Pacific and Richardson headwear produce basically the same exact hats and styles as each other. The Trucker, flexfit and baseball caps are the same build and even have similar style numbers. When it comes to quality however, we like Pacific Headwear over Richardson. The material is better, the fit is nicer and they always have their hats in stock! If you’ve ever ordered Richardson Hats before, you know that stock is always an issue with them…
Recently, Pacific Headwear has bene acquired by Augusta Sportswear and it’s only made their brand better. Tons of hat colors and options and plenty of stock in everything. Pacific Headwear is definitely becoming our go to brand when our customers are looking for nice hats ordered in Bulk.
