The USAAF Ball Cap was very popular with the Air Force pilots of WWII.
Archive photo evidence shows they were particularly popular amongst the
fighter pilots in the Pacific theatre.
Made from lightweight 100% wool in Grenadier-Red, the crown of the Ball Cap has a 6-piece construction which tailors the shape to a close form-hugging profile.
Our reproduction matches the original in every detail and is finished with a subdued one-wash process.
