The Cap Faction

Seeing these pictures this is probably the most beautiful cap I have seen so far.

Anyone else likes school caps? I love them, and wear them all the time, when I can find them in adult sizes. Anyone who's met me will understand just how YOUNG these make me look …

My Cricket Club wears those quite frequently, at least during the Summer, the older or more traditional members who aren't Sikhs do. Hehe. I've been wanting a plain white one to wear for Cricket though, I don't fancy the team colours of my branch of the league. Anyway, lots of fun (though ours are horizontally striped usually....)!

Oh, and I really like the vintage ones with the brims that are so small that they actually angle downward sort of like the kapzka brims of WWI uniforms!

Like the fabric, nice cap!

Just found this casquette on Etsy. Pics are from the seller. Can't wait to get it. Finally a vintage eight dart cap!

Wow! I've been combing Etsy for caps like that for hours at a time and must've passed over that! Congrats!

Maybe it had just been uploaded? I searched like five minutes before I found it. It's a small size, though. A large 6 7/8 or a small 7. That's probably another reason why it went under your radar.

Etsy search is real bad.

Yeah that would've been too much of a squeeze. I can wear a roomy/stretched 7 but I'm most comfortable wearing a 7 1/8th.

And yes I actually wear it, even though I'm not a re-enactor, and especially now after adding the 5th Corps, 1st Division badge! Love this cap!

Will soon be placing an order for this newsboy- love the crown drape and back cinch detail; deadstock fabric don't hurt either

Whatcha think; should I get it with the front or full leather sweatband option, or stock? Leaning towards full band...
