Sharp caps folks. Thanks for sharing.

Here are a couple caps I wore the past days.

A solid panel Cordova straw cap.

Cheers, Eric -

I like them both, but that "*** check" cap really got my attention!

Just got my new LW Foster G1 in today. It is an original Navy USMC issued aviator flight jacket. It’s not a repo but an original. It was delivered to the Navy in 1959 and I was born in in 1959. Jacket is 66 years old just like me. I can’t believe the condition it’s in. Just love it. Shout out to John Chapman at Goodwear Leather for making this happen. I got two Eastman RW repos I love but this jacket just became my favorite.

Here is my latest Cordova. THANK YOU @Johnny J
It's a very light weight cotton textured seersucker fabric in olive green/cream plaid, Six panel. Jonathan recommended the removable insert to help keep the shape. Eric @Short Balding Guy has one of these with the insert that I've seen buried in the depths of this thread somewhere.

Excellent summer cap.

If you squint your eyes you can see one of the Block Heads behind the cap.

Rick that is a sharp cap. Just plain sharp! The searsucker fabric really works.

I do have a cap with a similar removable top liner. It really works. I have cleaned it before and it still appears minty. It is in a one piece top and the liner gives the cap dimension and protects the fabric when and if my bald pate touches the top of the cap.
