About the Richardson 112PL

The Richardson 112PL is a thoughtful redesign of the iconic 112 trucker for wearers who don't always find their perfect fit with a standard snapback. The Comfort Stretch sweatband adapts to head shape rather than gripping rigidly, and the 95/5 polyester/spandex stretch mesh back provides additional give that a standard rigid mesh can't match. Combined with the R-Flex adjustable snapback closure, the result is a cap that fits a meaningfully wider range of head shapes and sizes comfortably, while still delivering the structured Mid Pro silhouette and embroidery-ready front panel that make the 112 family the standard for decorated headwear programs.

For decorators, the 112PL holds embroidery and patches the same way the standard 112 does, since the front panel construction is consistent across the 112 family. The 60/40 cotton/poly front provides a stable, structured surface for stitching without puckering, and the Mid Pro shape gives the design plenty of vertical real estate. For programs that have customers who specifically prefer stretch-fit comfort over the firm fit of a standard snapback, the 112PL offers a practical alternative without abandoning the look or decoration quality of the 112.

For the standard rigid Richardson 112, the Richardson 112 Trucker Cap is the most widely embroidered cap in the wholesale market with the deepest color range. For the five-panel version with a rope detail, the Richardson 112FPR Five-Panel Trucker with Rope covers a different aesthetic in the same Richardson lineup. For a fully stretch-fit cap without a closure, the Flexfit 5001 Adult Value Cotton Twill Cap uses elastic construction throughout for maximum flexibility.

FAQ

What's the difference between the 112 and the 112PL?
Both caps share the same Mid Pro front panel construction and 60/40 cotton/poly front, so embroidery and patches work identically across both. The difference is the back and closure. The standard 112 uses rigid mesh and a standard snapback, fitting most adult heads firmly. The 112PL uses stretch mesh and a flexible R-Flex snapback with a Comfort Stretch sweatband, fitting a wider range of head shapes more comfortably. For programs where customers have requested better fit options, the 112PL solves that without changing the embroidery surface.

Does the stretch construction affect embroidery?
No. The front panel of the 112PL uses the same 60/40 cotton/polyester construction as the standard 112 and holds embroidery the same way. The stretch elements are limited to the back mesh, sweatband, and closure, none of which interact with the embroidery area.

Is the 112PL good for patches?
Yes. The structured Mid Pro front holds patches cleanly without puckering. The 60/40 cotton/poly front panel construction provides a stable backing for both embroidered and woven patches.
