The Papa Nui Watch Cap is the result of the Papa reaching back into his historical vaults and recreating the most exacting wool naval cap, the General Issue. Working with the finest knitwear manufacturer in Japan, the Papa produces this 100% pure wool cap using the original US Navy knit batch contract number NXSX-38058 from September 1943 through to January 1944. The finest example of the type we’ve laid our hands on, the Papa’s interpretation has the attention to detail and exceptional quality you have come to expect from all Papa Nui caps. Its rugged and warm features will hold you through the darkest night and through winds as direful as any that lash the salted seas.
