Wholesale FAQs

Do you have order minimums?

Wholesale starts at 36 hats. You can split that into sets of 12 identical hats. Each set has to match (same hat, same patch or decoration), but you can run multiple designs as long as they’re ordered in 12-piece increments.

Can we mix and match designs in the same order?

Absolutely. Want three different designs? No problem. Just order them in 12s. Every set of 12 has to be identical, but you’re free to stack multiple sets into the same wholesale order.

How long do wholesale orders take?

On average, 4–6 weeks depending on order size and time of year. Once we know your count and designs, we’ll give you a straight ETA.

What brands of hats do you use?

We primarily work with Richardson hats because they fit right, last, and crews actually wear them off duty too. Other options are available on request.

What file types do you need for artwork?

Vector files (AI, EPS, or PDF) work best. High-res PNG or JPEG is fine if that’s all you have, but clean vector files cut down on setup time and posibly avoid any setup charges.

Can we pick our own hat colors and styles?

Yes. Wholesale buyers can choose from a wide range of Richardson colors and styles. Keep in mind each set of 12 has to be identical.

Who can buy wholesale?

Our wholesale program is built for retail shops, boutiques, and businesses looking to stock high-quality custom hats. If you’re looking for a handful of hats for your crew, that’s retail. Wholesale is for resell and requires a EIN as well as Sales Tax ID

Wholesale Richardson Hats: What Sets Us Apart

When it comes to sourcing wholesale Richardson hats, businesses have no shortage of options. But not all suppliers deliver the same level of consistency, quality, and long-term reliability that your brand deserves. At Little River Customs, we’ve built our wholesale program to serve retailers, promotional companies, and organizations that need bulk headwear designed to sell.

Authentic Richardson Quality

We work almost exclusively with genuine Richardson hats, ensuring every order starts with the most trusted foundation in the industry. Customers know the Richardson name, and that recognition drives retail sales, brand loyalty, and repeat purchases. Pairing these hats with our handcrafted leather patches creates a premium product line that stands out on shelves and online.

Built for Business Growth

Our wholesale model is designed around 36-piece minimum orders, broken into flexible sets of 12 identical hats. This allows businesses to stock multiple designs in a single order without overcommitting on inventory. Whether you’re running a boutique, launching a private-label line, or fulfilling promotional campaigns, this structure keeps your margins healthy while offering design variety.

Consistency at Scale

Handcrafted doesn’t have to mean inconsistent. Our production process combines traditional leather patchwork with repeatable quality standards, so every reorder looks and feels the same as the first run. That consistency builds customer trust and strengthens your brand identity with every hat sold.

Competitive Wholesale Pricing

Pricing matters, especially when you’re scaling. We structure our bulk pricing to protect your margins while keeping your products competitive in the market. Larger orders unlock stronger discounts, allowing you to expand your product line profitably.

Reliable Fulfillment

A wholesale partnership is only as strong as its delivery. We provide clear turnaround times upfront — typically 4–6 weeks depending on order size — and fulfill every order with reliability in mind. For businesses planning seasonal launches, events, or promotions, dependable scheduling is critical. That’s where we excel.

A Partner, Not Just a Supplier

Our role doesn’t end when the hats ship. We keep your artwork on file, making reorders fast and efficient. We also offer private-label options for businesses looking to build their own branded lines, giving you flexibility to grow without reinventing the process.
