Snapback
- Richardson 112 — Classic Trucker
- Mid-profile 5-panel, structured front, mesh back. The one everybody knows — holds its shape and sits square.
- Richardson 115 — Low Pro Trucker
- Same hat as the 112 with a shorter crown and flatter visor. Sits closer to the head.
- Richardson 169 — Cannon
- High-profile 7-panel, flat bill, laser-perforated performance polyester. No mesh — the whole cap breathes. Water resistant.
- Legacy OFA — Old Favorite Trucker
- Relaxed 6-panel, soft washed front, mesh back. Broken-in the day it arrives.
Adjustable strap
- Richardson 326 — Peached Twill Dad Hat
- Low-profile 6-panel, unstructured, soft peached cotton. No stiffener. The off-duty option.
- Legacy EZA — Relaxed Twill Dad Hat
- Unstructured washed twill, curved bill, sits low. The most casual cap on the board.
Fitted — no strap
- Flexfit 6277 — Cotton Blend Cap
- Structured 6-panel, mid-profile, Permacurv visor, elastic sweatband. The only cap here that is not one-size — it comes in S/M and L/XL, so pick your size with the hat. If you are between sizes, go up.

Had this hat sent to me and the craftsmanship, stitching, and overall quality are outstanding. It's well-made, comfortable, and a great way to represent the Steel Airmen. Shipping was smooth and the product exceeded expectations. This had can also survive any climate you may work in if you are a fan or work for the 911th I greatly recommend this hat to showcase your Steel airman pride!
