Named in honour of the F6F fighter plane, the "Hellcat” is a design that John Terosoriero (owner of Papa Nui) has been refining since the release of the original “Corsair” cap over a decade ago. Taking inspiration from 1940s-style aviator caps, this rugged hat is deep and balanced through the crown so as not to create a pinch at the top. The visor is 8cm (3 1/4”) long, with a wide, square shape taken directly from the USN caps of the era. The authentic Telo Mimetico camo is based on the original M1929 pattern, first issued to the Italian army in 1929, becoming one of the longest-running camouflage patterns in military history.
