Charlie’ is there! An Angel who’s got your back, twin 50’s pointing towards the sun, covering the sky, covering your ass.
The Papa Nui Cap Co. Research division presents after a long fascination with the ubiquitous A-3 Mechanics Cap,an essential addition to your flight kit, The Tail End Charlie Cap.
Following the premise that gun turrets are tightly cramped spaces, the Papa has created a HBT cap that is better suited for issue to ball turret and tail gunners. A cap that captures all the history and romance of the A-3 but offers up a re-designated visor shape that provides less obstacle and more freedom of movement in a tighten environment. This cap is built solid and is not General Issue!
-Japanese milled HBT olive drab twill.
-stubby flip up visor.
-New improved Army Duck visor, the king for superior styling.
-Made in Japan by the John Lofgren Bootmaker.
-Sizes medium 57cm-58cm Large 59cm-60cm X_Large 61cm-62cm.
The best cap for the right stuff, now in the right place - the county of origin of rocket-powered flight - Germany ! 😁 Love it
X-1 Crew Cap.

Meeting the Papa Nui cap changed my life once and for all — nothing will ever be the same again. Papa is truly unique in his philosophy, in the quality of what he creates, and in the heart he puts into every piece.
Many thanks,

The Real Deal.
What can be said that hasn't been said already. Papa airdropped this beaut and managed to get my mits on it before the CO noticed. The Shinki horsehide ain't a joke neither. You could go for a bimble through the jungle, get caught in a downpour, and this thing would probably come out looking better than you. It's stiff mind, took a bit of hard yakka to break it in, but now it fits like it was made for my scone. It's a civvy bit of kit, make no mistake. The Sergeant Major gets a bit cross-eyed when he sees it, thinks it's not uniform. But listen, when you're stuck in a foxhole and the rain's bucketing down, this leather lid is a bloody sight better than a piece of wet wool.
It's a fair dinkum bonzer bit of gear. If you can get one, get one. Just keep it out of sight of the brass.
