Another magnificent cap that explores the theme of his love for post WWII planes. The Douglas F-10 Sky Knight, was a Naval Marine jet fighter designed to escort B-29’s o night bombing missions over Korea in the early 1950’s. Only one aircraft was lost to air combat against a MiG 15. The cap builds highly on this rep! Charcoal black jungle cloth whip cord references both Navy fabrications of the era as well as the F-10’s mission role. Under the visor and the sweatband is constructed using HBT in olive drab and adds to the comfort and utility of wearing this cap.
Styling is typical of early 50’s Naval aviation and draws on the Papa’s all time Hell Cat Cap silhouette which provides maximum cover from the elements. Another rugged piece to accompany your ever expanding kit and one that will age with a unique patina for years to come.

This season the Papa has added an extra swing tag which calls out the detail that his visors have a genuine Army Duck fusing which provides a body and weight to his caps that no other manufacturer has. The resulting styling options are greatly enhanced and when the cap is in hand it feels worthy of the job at hand and my reputation as the Ace of Caps.
