Nice photo of a herringbone cap´s back - worn with a short leather jacket. Leipzig 1928-1932.
Nice! And I love the fabric of his pants too...
From my experience the zig zag stitch prevents the edge of the leather from curling as it does with a straight stitch and giving the sweatband a more comfortable feel without the use of a reed.
Yet the most comfortable and stable way would be to stitch the sweatband straightly on the reverse and fold it over. The sweatband has to be soft/thin enough for this, of course.
Also prevents edge curl.
I had several cases of Zig-Zag stitches tearing on the front (on vintage caps/hats).
