Early 1900’s Ball cap

This is my interpretation of an early 1900’s Ball cap.


For this particular cap I've used an original pattern from the era which features a 6 panel crown, but I have added a rear adjustable d-ring strap for fit and comfort.


I have used Japanese milled wool melton, a cotton twill sweatband, Singer 32-43 oversized stitched eyelets, and an unbreakable soft 2" inch stitched visor consistent with caps from the era.


This particular pattern was prominent in the early 1900's (pre-1930's) and although not an exact reproduction, I feel these caps are the closest that you will find to the originals of the time in regard to fit. All constructed using period correct machinery and processes.


Features:


- Grey marle wool melton 6 panel crown / Deep Burgundy Wool visor / Dark green cotton twill underside


- Hand cut Merino felt wool logo


- Singer 32-43 oversized stitched eyelets


- Black cotton twill sweatband


- Cotton twill D-ring rear adjustable strap


- Satin seam taping


- Canvas lined 2" inch unbreakable stitched brim


All of my caps are handmade from start to finish by me, using machines from the 1920's-1960's. No two caps are the same and differences in construction are to be celebrated.
