The Papa Nui Chesty Cap is back for Winter 2025. First seen in 2022 and long sold out, the idea for the Chesty came about when the Papa lent a hand to the 1st Marine Division when they came down to Australia for furlough and refit after six hard months on the Guadalcanal campaign trail.
All new ‘Chesty Caps’, were outfitted to the ‘Old Breed’. Tough resilient and worn with a raggedy-ass turn-up. The Chesty Cap comes in an Olive Drab herringbone twill with an all-natural Japanese canvas visor liner to create an authentic flip of consequence.
- Olive drab herringbone twill construction
- Flip-up visor
- We recommend an initial quick warm water soak and wearing while damp
- Made in Japan by John Lofgren & Co.
- Hino Maru internal country of origin patch
- Sizes Medium (57-58cm), Large (59-60cm) and, for the first time XXL (61-62cm)
- Code
