      Just got my Catalina from Papa, great cap! The caution yellow under the brim is growing on me.
      I was worried that the 60 cm. might be a little small, but Papa was right in that these run a little big.


      And just an idea for Giles and Papa if they continue to work together in the future, maybe IH could take a batch of these and give them the overdye treatment? I'd be interested to see how they come out!

          @goodrain I'll see if I can get a picture tonight, I believe I'm a 7 3/4 but I haven't bought a fitted cap in who knows how long.
          Avenger cap is up next on my list!

                Drying after 4 hours working in the garden. First marks from my plum tree and more to to come….
                Only wanted to show how glorious this billiard green works again the sun.  😃
                Next week the Avenger will see the Mediterranean Sea.

                                @dylantbmayes these are brilliant product shots! The site is undergoing a transformation folks but as in all things it's a work in process that is going on behind the scenes. In the meantime the Papa has been in design mode working towards this winters collection. If you all loved the Avenger/ Catalina styles then you'll lose your tits over the new caps for W15/16!!

                                  To clarify, @Finn666;

                                  It is unlikely the Avenger Cap will go into production again.

                                  If you are wanting one contact Josh at Right Hand Distribution (righthanddistribution@gmail.com).

                                      “I have been buying surplus gear for near 30 years and incorporating that into my beach garb. But after sitting under the Australian sun you start to think about how you can make improvements. This was how the Combat Beach Battalion Hat, and later the Corsairs Cap, came about. Both were developed and enhanced from original garments to fit into my worldview.” - Papa Nui
