Kentucky rope hat built for gameday in Lexington. The SALTYmf Kentucky GOAT Roper is the Richardson 258 with rope cord trim on the bill.
Blue skies, horse farms, bourbon country, and college football Saturdays in Lexington. This is what Kentucky looks like. The Kentucky GOAT Roper is a low-profile 6-panel roper-style hat built on the Richardson 258 platform, with rope cord trim running along the edge of the bill. Blue/White colorway. Worn by men and women who carry the Kentucky identity everywhere they go, from Lexington tailgates to Tuesday afternoons.
Why the Kentucky GOAT Roper?
- Rope cord trim on the bill: The detail that makes a roper hat a roper hat. The rope cord runs along the edge of the bill and separates this hat from every standard cap in the parking lot. It is a specific look with a specific history, and it wears well in Lexington or anywhere Kentucky follows you.
- Richardson 258 construction: A structured, low-profile 6-panel cap with a snapback closure. The 258 sits lower on the head than a traditional trucker, giving it a cleaner profile that works as well off the field as on it. If you prefer the classic trucker silhouette with mesh back panels, the Kentucky GOAT Trucker (Richardson 112) is the companion style in this collection.
- Blue/White colorway: The Kentucky color combination in a hat that does not need a logo to make the statement. Clean, structured, and specific to where you are from.
- SALTYmf voice, no filler: Built for the bold and the proud. The ones who own the moment rather than wait for it. The attitude wears well in Lexington and anywhere Kentucky takes you.

Frequently asked questions
What is a roper hat?
A roper hat is a style of cap with a cord or rope trim that runs along the edge of the bill. The rope cord trim is the defining visual detail that distinguishes it from a standard curved-bill baseball cap. The style has roots in mid-20th century golf and outdoor culture and has returned as a clean, structured alternative for fans who want a hat with a specific look and character.
What is the Richardson 258?
The Richardson 258 is a structured low-profile 6-panel cap with a snapback closure. It sits lower on the head than a traditional trucker hat, producing a cleaner, more fitted silhouette. The 258 is the base blank for the Kentucky GOAT Roper and is built specifically to carry the roper style with rope cord trim on the bill.
Does the rope trim on the bill come on every roper variant?
Yes. The rope cord trim running along the edge of the bill is the defining construction detail of the Kentucky GOAT Roper. It is present on the Blue/White colorway. The rope cord trim is what separates the Roper from the Kentucky GOAT Trucker, which uses the Richardson 112 platform with a mesh back instead.
What head sizes does this hat fit?
The Kentucky GOAT Roper uses a snapback closure that adjusts to fit a wide range of adult head sizes. The low-profile Richardson 258 construction fits comfortably for most wearers without the high crown of a trucker silhouette. If you sit between sizes, the snapback lets you dial it in.
