The Cap Faction

[hatsRme]

We ARE different.

You should have no shortage of options if you poke around the Cap faction thread...

If you want a custom linen cap, you can talk to Simonds, who made the denim cap in my avatar. If you want to go cheaper, I got a really nice khaki one from Amazon.com, made by Stetson, for $25.

From Bulgaria by way of Paris: My new 'L'Aronde' casquette in 1900-1920 Bulgarian hand-harvested, dyed & loomed cotton, with 1890's Czech glass buttons, 1940's kimono silk liner, full leather band and leather visor, vintage United Carr snap.

I love the way this fabric looks like there is purple in it - an optical illusion of placing blue stripes within red ones - see the closeups.

Beautiful work Keith. Love the fabric...the "purple" is a cool effect!

Love it - excellent taste smoothsailor! Starting with one of Johnny's creations is a high bar indeed! It looks awesome.

Love the vintage pic, Ed. But sad sad sad.

Fastuni, that one just dropped my jaw. THANKS for posting that pic. That is a cap for the ages.

Freshened and re-blocked one of my vintage favorites. This 8 panel is probably early 1930's.
