Papa Nui
A-26 Wool Squadron Cap
£105.00
The A-26 Wool Squadron Cap is the winter counterpart to Papa Nui’s Shinki leather cap. It keeps the easy A-3-inspired shape, replacing the leather with warm Japanese wool flannel for cold days on the flight line or closer to home.
Hand-cut wool felt numerals and Papa Nui lightning bolts recall the improvised squadron insignia added to wartime aircrew clothing. Set against the burgundy wool, the pale felt gives the cap its distinctive character without changing the simplicity of the original shape. Made in Japan from 100% wool flannel.
