Frequently Asked Questions About Trucker Apparel & Trucker Merchandise

What materials are your trucker shirts and hoodies made from, and how do they hold up after multiple washes?

Our trucker apparel is primarily made from heavyweight cotton blends (typically 50/50 cotton-polyester or 60/40 blends) designed to withstand regular wear and commercial washing. T-shirts feature pre-shrunk fabric with double-needle stitching at stress points. Based on customer feedback, our shirts maintain their shape and color through 50+ wash cycles when following care instructions - wash in cold water and tumble dry on low heat. Hoodies use 8-10 oz fleece material with reinforced cuffs and waistbands that resist pilling.

How do your sizes run, and what should I order if I'm between sizes?

Our trucker apparel runs true to standard American sizing, though some customers report our shirts fit slightly larger to accommodate layering and comfort during long hauls. If you're between sizes, we recommend ordering your regular size for a comfortable fit or sizing down for a more fitted look. Our size chart measurements reflect the garment laid flat - chest measurements are armpit to armpit doubled. For reference, a size XL typically measures 46-48 inches chest, and our 3XL extends up to 58 inches.

Do you offer custom embroidery or printing for company logos on bulk orders?

Yes, we provide custom embroidery and screen printing services for orders of 12 pieces or more. Embroidery is available on hats, polos, and jacket chest areas with up to 10,000 stitches. Screen printing works best for t-shirts and hoodies with 1-4 color designs. Setup fees start at $45 for embroidery and $25 per screen for printing. Turnaround time is typically 10-14 business days after artwork approval. Contact our commercial sales team at 1-888-875-2358 for pricing on your specific needs.

Which hat styles work best with headsets, and do the snapbacks actually fit larger heads?

Our low-profile trucker caps and fitted styles work best with over-the-head CB headsets, as they sit closer to the head with less crown interference. The mesh-back snapbacks adjust from 6 7/8" to 7 5/8" head circumference, while our FlexFit styles stretch to accommodate up to 7 3/4". For drivers with larger heads (7 3/4" and above), we recommend our adjustable velcro-back styles which extend up to 8". The Richardson 112 style remains our most popular for headset compatibility.

Are your work gloves touchscreen compatible, and which styles are best for fuel pumps in winter?

Our mechanics gloves feature touchscreen-compatible fingertips on the thumb and index finger, allowing smartphone use without removal. For winter fueling, our insulated leather driver gloves with 3M Thinsulate provide the best grip on cold metal handles while maintaining dexterity. The synthetic leather palms resist diesel and oil absorption better than standard leather. These gloves maintain flexibility down to -20?F and include extended cuffs that seal over jacket sleeves to prevent cold air entry.
