SALTYmf Dad Hat

The SALTYmf Dad Hat is our brand-staple dad hat on the Richardson 326 platform. Unstructured 6-panel garment-washed cotton twill, adjustable brass buckle, embroidered SALTYmf goat on the front. The cap you pick up first thing in the morning and forget you are wearing.

The Richardson 326 is the dad-hat blank lifestyle brands trust when they want a premium hand-feel out of the box. Garment-washed at the cap stage instead of just the fabric. Softer, more broken-in, ready to wear on day one.

Frequently asked questions

What is the Richardson 326?
The Richardson 326 is an unstructured 6-panel garment-washed cotton twill dad hat. Low-profile, soft worn-in feel from the garment wash, pre-curved bill, and an adjustable self-fabric strap with antique brass buckle. A trusted dad-hat blank for lifestyle brands.

How is the Richardson 326 different from a standard dad cap?
Garment wash. The 326 is washed at the cap stage to soften the cotton twill and produce a more lived-in hand-feel right out of the box. Same 6-panel unstructured silhouette as a standard chino dad cap, just softer.

What is the difference between a dad hat and a snapback?
A dad hat is unstructured (soft crown, no buckram), 6-panel, cotton or canvas, with a pre-curved bill and an adjustable strap closure. A snapback is structured (firm foam front, buckram), typically 6-panel with a flat bill and a plastic snap closure on the back. Dad hats wear softer; snapbacks hold their shape.

What other SALTYmf dad hats do you make?
The SALTYmf Distressed Cap is the distressed brand-basic version. The Khaki/Navy Distressed pairs the distressed finish with a two-tone colorway. Same brand, three different cap builds.
