PN-0073 - Papa Nui - Skyknight Cap - Black

The Skyknight from Papa Nui is another unique cap that explores the theme of post-WWII military aircraft. The Douglas F-10 Sky Knight was a Navy Marine jet fighter designed to escort B-29’s on night bombing missions over Korea in the early 1950’s. Only one of these aircraft was lost to air combat against a MiG 15. This cap was designed to honour the plane's formidable reputation!

Made from charcoal black jungle cloth whipcord, it references both navy fabrications of the era, constructed with a HBT sweatband for comfort and practicality. The style is typical of early 50’s naval aviation and draws on Papa Nui's most popular cap, the Hell Cat, with a silhouette that provides maximum cover from the elements.

I can only assume the price of £12 is an error.

@IrishHeart Most likely a zero missing in the middle @ShopatIronHeart

I thought it was cheap! I presumed just because it was black, although it’s apparently also Olive Green…

Sorry guys!

Thank you @Tago-Mago for the AT.

@Graham while I’d love to steal his thunder, @tody was the one who spotted it. Credit where credit is due

@Mister_Brue

Sorry bro, will contact you over the weekend to iron out your order. I am so sorry.

I assumed it was vintage pricing for a 50’s era hat

[Mister_Brue]

@Graham No worries.
