Papa Nui Papa Nui Cobra Boonie
£115.00
The Papa Nui Cobra Boonie is a new collaborative piece from Papa Nui and East Asia Supply Co. Starting with one of the Papa’s work hats in a rugged olive drab HBT, two large in-country patches are added to make this piece a truly special one. Each patch is meticulously created by Nguyen and Mamasan in Saigon exclusive to Papa Nui. These are made using hand operated machines and sewn on to these hats in Hong Kong by Jim Lau and his team.
An homage to the customised boonies worn during the South East Asian Conflict in Vietnam Cambodia and Laos, the Papa Nui cap takes its cues from a recently unearthed original. All hats are prewashed here on the Atoll to shrink the cotton used in the patches, enhancing the authenticity and to start the patina with wear process.
This is a very limited run product.
