Documented as a hunting cap early as 1929, and the style in wool as a baseball cap as early as 1910, this hunting/mechanic's cap is ideal for early fall hunting. Breatheable, and not too heavy, so it won't make you sweat. These were also popular for automotive work as a way to keep the eyes shaded without having a longer bill in the way when underneath a car. These caps lost favor with adults in the early 1940s, but continued to be popular for young boys into the late 1950s. Size is adjustable within a very large range due to buckle-back construction. A very comfortable multi-purpose hat!
