Red Kap is an American workware company headquartered in Nashville, Tennessee that manufactures and distributes work-related clothing .

In 1923 two brothers and their cousin set up shop to sell bib overalls under a sign that read “Harlin Bros. & Williams.” This humble operation held fast to a few simple values — great service, comfort, and durability. So, business grew.

1939, the name was changed to Red Kap, after Red Cap Smoking Tobacco. Inspired by Red Cap Smoking Tobacco, the company changes its name to Red Kap – offering a “better grade” of shirts.

By 1939, the family was selling affordable matched-set workwear and chambray shirts. Times were good. Until WWII when the country was thrown into turmoil. Red Kap stepped up to help the war effort — manufacturing gas mask carriers, combat fatigues, and field jackets. After the war, Red Kap teamed up with laundry services to supply fresh uniforms to all sorts of businesses. By 1960, Red Kap had solidified its place as a major player in the workwear industry.
