Papa Nui x Giggles collaboration of American Red Cross War Knits adds some fun to the bleakest of Winters.
A crazy whimsical take on the classic WWII pattern these vintage style watch caps will hold you fast this season. A beautiful single fold cap that is designed to sit above the ears and is hand knitted in a luxurious New Zealand 8 ply Perendale Wool.
Each watch cap features an original 1940’s ‘ARC’ tag as well as a vintage 30’s donor tinny. Please request if you'd like this sewn on.
Available in a limited collection with a unique array of hues, this springy long staple yarn is a dense wool with a dry chalky handle and is perfect for keeping the cold at bay and the fit is superb!
-Completely Hand crafted.
-One size fits most as wool is extremely stretchy.

-WWII Red Cross pattern.
-1930’s Donor tinny badge.
-1940’s Red Cross service patch sewn at customer’s request, please let us know.

(Wool is super stretchy and will be more comfortable with constant wear therefore sizing will fit most.)
Within a day of my hat arriving l, my wife found it, and after a lot of negotiation decided that I should buy her one of her own.

Best hat I ever had.
This hat hits every point of interests for me. Fit, quality and historical accuracy. Feels and fits great. Can be worn in any situation, either outside fishing, at the beach, hiking ,or dress it up with a cool look. Packs well in a bag for traveling and can easily pull out and still look great. I have hats from RRL and Kapital and this hat blows them away!! Worth every penny. I love it.

A Real Hat for Real Life
This is without question the best fitting cap I have ever purchased or worn.
Exceptionally well-made, this rugged and durable cap fits like a glove and is already the most frequently worn getting-stuff-done cap in my rotation. This is no "fashion" hat. This ain't "gorpcore." It's a real hat for real life.
Perfect cap, perfect fit! Feeling a little sorry for my cotton caps. Hopefully they’ll get some head time wher the heat comes. Every other time it’s the A-26 from now on.
Excellent helmet for the casual sun exposure we get here in the old world! I very much enjoy wearing it.. thanks for making & shipping such a great hat across the seven seas.
An awesome cross body sling tote with a fantastic hand machined Bravo Zulu Papa patch, stunning Tiger Stripes, matched with a phenomenal construction, this will become a faithful friend on any journey! 'R&R Forever' x
