Forty-eight is the most common first order. It hits the third price tier ($20.50 each on a Richardson 112, $984.00 total) and splits cleanly two or three ways by color. Here is the whole process.

## 1. Pick the hat and the colors

Start with the Richardson 112 unless you have a reason not to. It has the most colors and the stiffest front. Rope caps (256, 258) and low-pros (115) are the next most common. Decide the color split: 24/24 or 16/16/16 are typical. Sizes are not needed for hats; note how many XL if you want them.

## 2. Send artwork, quantity and style

Use the [quote form](/quote/). Attach a vector logo (AI, EPS, PDF, SVG) or a 300 dpi PNG. Put the style, colors, quantity, glued or sewn, and any in-hand date in the details box. Quotes usually go out the same business day.

| Line | Qty | Each | Total |
|---|---|---|---|
| Richardson 112, glued leather patch, heather grey/black | 24 | $20.50 | $492.00 |
| Richardson 112, glued leather patch, loden/tan | 24 | $20.50 | $492.00 |
| Setup |  | $0.00 | $0.00 |
| Subtotal before shipping | 48 |  | $984.00 |

## 3. Approve the proof

After you accept the quote, we send a digital proof: patch outline and size on the hat, leather tone, engraved areas, and stitch color if sewn. Look at the text size and the patch position. Ask for changes; proofs are free. When you approve, the 28-day standard turnaround starts.

## 4. Production

We pull blanks from SanMar's Reno warehouse (or the next closest if Reno is out), engrave and cut the patches on our 80-watt CO2 laser, and bond each one on the hat press. Sewn patches then go to the embroidery machines for the edge stitch. Every hat is checked against the proof.

## 5. Ship

Hats ship from Yerington, Nevada, to anywhere in the US. Shipping is quoted by weight and destination; 48 hats usually go in one or two cartons. You get tracking by email.

## Timeline

| Step | Time |
|---|---|
| Quote | Usually same business day |
| Proof | After quote acceptance and artwork |
| Production | 28 days from proof approval (standard) |
| Transit | By carrier and destination |

## Questions
**Can I order 44 instead of 48?** Yes, but 44 is priced at the 24-47 tier ($21.00 on a 112). Four more hats cost less than the tier difference.

**What if I do not have a vector logo?** Send the best file you have. Simple logos we vectorize free; complex redraws are quoted.

**Can I split 48 across two hat styles?** Yes. Each style is priced at its own blank cost; the patch tier is based on total patch count.
