Oh yessssss! Very nice! Embroidered and beautiful, and I'll bet no platic snap back adjustables there! Just good old wool! Thanks for those, oose!

An almost identical cap like the blue one is available through the Navy's aviation museum in Pensacola- you can order on line. It's not wool and there is a plastic snap back, but you can't have everything?

There are two versions- one with just the gold wings ($15) and one with wings and "NAVAL AVIATION" printed on it (it comes as a combo with a t-shirt, $20)

This is the website. Go to the Museum Store and look under "caps" as well as "clothing- shirt/hat combo").

Unfortunately, those are modern trucker hats and I'm afraid much of what we avoid when it comes to these classic caps.
No offense, but the devil is in those details and they just aren't to be found today.

I like a few of the caps though like the Angels cap.

JMO,
Dave
