Issued early in WW2, the B-1 Summer Flying Cap saw service in
Africa, Europe and the Pacific. Popular among pilots and ground crew
alike, the B-1 was favored for the breathable fabric, slightly longer
brim and comfortable fit (it fits lower in the back than most modern
baseball caps).
Our B-1 cap reproduction features a lightweight summer
cotton fabric, 4-panel design and formed brim. Just like the original,
our hats are made to specific hat sizes (Medium is 7 1/8, Large is 7
1/2, XL is 7 5/8 and XXL is 7 7/8). (Please see our images and
instructions to measure your hat size accurately before ordering).
The
4-panel design means there's no "button" at the top of the hat like most
baseball caps. This feature is popular with pilots who wear headsets
during flight.
