Description

The US Navy Ball Cap was very popular with the Navy and Marine pilots of WWII. On or off duty, if they weren’t flying, they would usually be wearing their Ball Cap. It was common for the name or number of their unit to be sewn or embroidered across the front.

Made from a lightweight, 100% wool, dark Navy Blue cloth, the crown of the Ball Cap has a 6-piece construction which tailors the shape to a close form-hugging profile.

Available in sizes 7 – 7 1/2
