@AdamJ I was looking at those in Philly at Franklin & Poe… I was tempted. Really nice.

@Giles what is this piece of perfection? I have been on the hunt for the perfect Jeep Cap. I literally just settled on one yesterday.

@derek111 if you are looking for an authentic Jeep Cap then I would try a site called World War 2 Impressions. They make amazing stuff and have been used in movies for uniforms etc. I have 2 of the jeep caps and they are fantastic. Here is a link.

Just a cheapy I got off Amazon. It’s 100% wool which I wanted. £12.

Just picked up this Montane Gore-Tex cap as the my Carhartt equivalent is fucked and, not waterproof as I experienced this morning

A fun little Wabash flat cap arrived today. Never been able to pull this vibe off. Maybe the moustache will help.

Hat and stache combo looks good on you

Not sure if the reference will translate outside the US but Roy Underhill would agree

Hovering on the buy button on one of these weird keepsake hats from William Ellery. I think you are supposed to use the mesh panel to stick feathers and flowers or whatever you come across on your journey. Kind of cool, mostly ridiculous.

@GraemeE What a legend!

[Giles]

Details soon.......Iron Heart chambray and a Turks Head woggle made from some fishing assist cord I had lying around....

[motojobobo]

Awesome woggle!!

[Giles]

Thank you. It's th first time I have tried to make a Turks Head. I have a feeling they may start appearing on random stuff all over the place.

@deanclean Saw your post and ended up buying one of the MF denim caps. Just got it and it fits great. Hits the sweet spot in regards to the profile (not too high and not too low). I ended up removing the label as I prefer just a plain cap. Thanks for posting this as I didn't know about it.

[deanclean]

Glad you like it @Nobunaga i love the height as well. I was toying with removing the label also.

Found out about this brand from Naked and Famous. Made in Canada from 100% merino. It really surprised me how stretchy it is with zero acrylic. Very nice.

Wife got me a turquoise feather for my hats. I dig it!
