Skyknight Cap

The Skyknight. (Hell Cat special edition).

Another magnificent cap that explores the theme of my love for post WWII planes. The Douglas F-10 Sky Knight was a Navy Marine jet fighter designed to escort B-29’s on night bombing missions over Korea in the early 1950’s. Only one aircraft was lost to air combat against a MiG 15. My 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 detailing as well as the sweatband is constructed using HBT in olive drab, whilst adding  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 most popular cap, the Hell Cat with a  silhouette that 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.
