The Cap Faction

Nice one SBG!

Good evening. I wanted to post up a new cap that I have been enjoying for the past week or so.

I introduce my new Cordova Cap. I let the esteemed Jonathan Cordova have a free hand with the only request was that I wished for a summer cap. Shazam! The handwork is magnificent. I wear it tonight as I head out to watch a local fireworks display.

It is a natural colored linen, with a liner and leather sweat band. The cap is a french cap style. The linen does show wrinkles, but a shot of steam and they "fall out." Absolutely no problems. I wear my caps out and abut and this linen cap is no exception. It has worn well.

The cap has a back dart that captures the eye.

The leather sweat band, liner and branding (logo) are a classy and draw peoples attention when I take it off.

Thanks for taking a look at my new Cordova Cap. It is my hope that the clean, classy lines of this bespoke cap will rub of on my "mug." Regardless, I am enjoying the cap. Thanks Mr. Cordova.

Best, Eric -

Great looking cap!

I second the praise of Johnny's summer linen - pristine and perfect proportions!!

Well, I've not been around the lounge for ages. I'm visiting as many threads as I can and am trying not to resurrect old dead ones. I've been catching up on this thread in particular (a mammoth task) and have I missed some treats. I doff my cap to all of you enthusiastic makers and wearers. A wonderful thread and some wonderful creations. Bravo!

Very nice Cordova line cap Eric!

I am anxiously awaiting mine (along with another wool one ordered in April). Hope to get some head time with the linen this summer.

I'm so 'Fond-a' the cap Henry wore in Grapes of Wrath, I've made a cap inspired by it. 'The Tom Joad.'

1930's barleycorn tweed, unlined, hand-folded 1940's ribbon taped seams, leather sweat.

Nice job,Keith.

Great caps one and all!

Seriousely, almost every cap posted I can visualize the opportunity I could wear them. I do not know how many caps you fellows have, but I can see how I could make use of many more.

Enjoying the postings, Eric -
