Following the end of the Second World War the Canadian Army reviewed its uniforms and introduced a pair of new peaked caps for its troops. One was a lightweight summer cap, whilst the other was a winter cap made of serge wool.
This cap has a broad peak to keep the sun off and a brown leather chin strap.
This strap is secured to the cap by a pair of blackened Canadian army buttons, with King’s crowns on them. Interestingly though, despite the Queen’s crown coming into use from 1952 onwards, this cap wasn’t manufactured until 1954.
These style of caps actually saw service in Korea.
Excellent preowned condition, but the label is faded and size small is an estimate.
Fast shipping from Canada, same or next business day.
Smoke and pet free.
