Fits great. Good feel. All around a good buy.

Brent N. Marion, NC |
Great fitting hat. True to size and very comfortable for plate or field hat.
|
Brian C. Van Buren, MO |
Very comfortable hat. Doesn't fade and holds up great.
|
Allan C. Cheyenne, WY |
Our association chose these as our umpire hats, because they don't fade as easily as the Smitty does and they just fit better overall.
|
Jarrod H. Monticello, AR |
Fit great! Shipping was very quick!
|
Rusty P. Conway, AR |
Nice hats that do the job fine.
|
Jeff R. Bernie, MO |
The Richardson hats are the best I've used. They don't fade like many others do.
|
Marcus M. Redmond, OR |
Great, super cool hat for hot summer days. A little stretchy for a good fit. Held up all summer.
|
Keoki R. Kahului, HI |
Great.
|
Casey P. Loganville, GA |
Perfect combo hat for base and plate work! Will keep it for seasons to come.
|
James S. West Hamlin, WV |
Great field hat. Love the way it fits and it’s not to tight or restricting.
|
Steve H. Flagstaff, AZ |
Richardson provides a great cap. This cap can be used on the bases and behind the plate.
|
David E. Muldrow, OK |
Great hat. I can wear it under my mask or in the field. It stretches a little but is still tight enough not to fly off during windy games.
|
Garret Rancho Santa Margarita, CA |
For a clean, crisp look, look no further; the Pulse hat is where it’s at. It’s easy to crease and the color is maintained even after washing. For a custom fit with this Flex Fit hat, simply add some mounting tape in the underside of the hat and you’ll be ready for a plate game. The material is easy to maintain and the fade time is less than the wool hat. This hat is highly recommended for a professional look.

Nice hat. Clean in the dishwasher with the plastic cage and it comes out clean. Good reliable fit.

Nice umpire cap. Professional looking and comfortable.
|
Andrew S. Olathe, KS |
Pretty good umpire cap. Good replacement for my Walmart cap I bought that looks pretty old after a year.
|
Peter G. Lorain, OH |
Great umpire hat all around. Keeps the sweat out of my eyes and is just very comfortable to wear. Have this in both black and navy and they both have held up great.
|
Kevin M. Overland Park, KS |
Amazing umpire hat when it's hot! Kept the sweat out of my eyes both behind the plate and in the field.
|
Brian B. Bismarck, ND |
Very nice umpire cap. The material was a little more comfortable than my previous one. Also felt cooler when the temperatures got a little higher.
|
Lisa J California |
I purchased this for my husband as an extra cap/hat for his Umpiring at Softball Games and he said it fit nice, helped to keep his head cooler, was happy with the quality too.
|
Brian P. Fort Pierce, FL |
Hat fits well.
|
Denver D. Panama City Beach, FL |
Love the hat. One of my favorite umpire hats.
|
Dan S. Phoenix, Arizona |
Good fit, light weight and cool on the hot days. No league affiliation logo so I use it on the days I'm working the plate.
|
Trevor P. Laguna Niguel, CA |
Fits well and breathes well on hot days. Not much more you can ask for.
|
Alan B. Clermont, FL |
Good for a second hat on the days when you are working more than 1 plate job. Not as form fitting as a fitted hat.
|
Chris L. Topeka, KS |
I thought the fit could have been better or offer an additional smaller size. It fits okay just not as tight as I like. Overall great looking umpire hat.
|
Shawn H. Pensacola, FL |
I liked this cap much more than I expected. I will always prefer New Era 5950 caps - but this product fit well and was certainly cooler in a hot and humid climate.
|
Kevin H. La Crosse, WI |
Good light hat for the price, top of hat seems firm, and hard to shape (looks boxy). Hope within time it will fit how I'm hoping. Again, great hat.
|
Tim C. Hendersonville, TN |
Good quality hat, fits well, and wears well. This is the 6th Richardson hat I have owned for various sanctions I umpire in. They all wear the same which is awesome. Cooler for those summer games.
|
Larry M. Pinehurst, NC |
Hat looks great, good fit and quality. Works for plate or bases
|
Everett Vermont |
This hat looks nice when new and it's impossible to tell it's not a true fitted hat. The problem is that it doesn't hold up to the sun well at all. After just one year my hat turned completely brown. I've had navy hats made by other brands that are much older and have little to no signs of fading compared to this one. They need to use a much more sun-proof dye.
Questions About This Product
| Q: | Can these hats be washed in a washing machine? – Antonio Manuel Martinez Sanchez |
| A: | These caps can be washed in a washing machine or dishwasher. We highly recommend a BallCap Buddy Original Cap Washer Cage to safely maintain the shape of your cap. – Ty UnthankMarketing Specialist, HS & College Umpire |
| Q: | I wear a 7 1/4, should I get the small/medium or large/extra large in the pulse hat? – Kevin Wimer |
| A: | Most likely, a Large/Extra Large will work for you, especially on the bases. When working the plate, you may want a more snug fit with the Small/Medium. With FREE RETURNS for the contiguous United States, there is no risk to you of purchasing both sizes to see which fits best. – Josh MannPro School Umpire Graduate |
