“To Hell with Spain, Remember the Maine!” A battle cry on their lips! An homage from the Papa as he knits a watch cap that speaks to the century’s turn, to the birth of empire, to the beginnings of homogeny. The Maine Cap!
This 1898 U.S.N. Knit has been extensively researched from archival photos and reversed engineered by hand knit in 100% Corriedale Peruvian Worsted wool evoking the ‘seed stitch’ of yesteryear and saluting the iconic predecessor of all naval watch caps.
Stand the watch, be the pride of the fleet, wear the Maine Cap.
Available in Havana Black in an exclusive historical release.
***NOTE: The Maine cap is not subject to discounting. Each watch cap is hand made in exceedingly small quantities and as such is not to be sold at a lesser price. I will not honour any abandoned check out discounting on this item, if you have to think about it chances are it'll be gone before you get back to your cart.
Love this cap. Beautiful detail with the stitching, super comfortable, and great fit!

Love It!
Great addition to my collection and probably the quickest delivery yet to Canada
Perfectly designed. Well constructed. Just the right amount of floppy. I could've spent years digging around in op shops for a sun-hat like this. Thanks to Papa Nui, I didn't have to.
